My sweetheart has started a new 'part-time' job to help pay off some medical bills quicker:
He donates blood plasma twice a week for an extra $200 a month. Well, the idea was actually conceived by him to "support his habit." (He knows he is getting a hand gun and concealed weapons permit for Christmas... what I didn't realize is that purchasing the gun isn't the ONLY expense... you have to purchase a safe, safety mechanism thing-eys, ammo, the optional undercover-covert-wannabe-CIA-agent-inside-your-waistband-holster...) So JP was originally just going to donate for a month to earn his cash to pay for accessories for his new toy, but when he started going, he realized it was a pretty cool way to earn a little extra cash. Who doesn't like vampires? (I'm an Edward fan myself) and what guy doesn't enjoy getting paid to sit in a recliner and watch t.v. for $25 an hour? So tonight he mentioned going permanently and using the extra money to help pay off medical bills quicker. I love him for it. Don't get me wrong, he consented to taking me to the Sandpiper for dinner in a couple of weeks. (I'm a great negotiator.) I do have my own Edward, after all, don't I? After all, 'tis better to give than to receive...

That's great! Besides the extra money for you guys, think of the people who are being helped by his plasma. It's definitely a win-win situation!
That is a great way to earn extra cash! I did it all through college and it is kinda fun in a strange sorta way :)
What a cute post! You crack me up. I also considered going to do this myself but I don't care to have my blood drawn. Your husband is a great guy! You are so good together.
Rich and I have seriously been considering this as a source of a little income during this transition phase - but then he quickly realized he wouldn't be able to collect unemployment so conveniently I would be the only one able to donate. I am going to have to go look into it next week.
Sodis is going to have permanent scars on his arms. I still have mine from donating a few times in college! He is a good man. I downloaded all of our home videos onto our computer yesterday and found some pretty good footage of him doing "Kelly's Custom Closets" at mom's. It gave me some good laughs!
I think that's great. Uh-oh, guns! You are absolutely correct in it's not just the gun. All those "accessories" you mentioned are expensive. Rodney has I don't know how many guns and a safe full of guns and boxes and boxes of ammo. I don't even want to think of how much money we've spent on this "hobby". Just don't get into re-loading cuz that's spensive also! He's lucky he can donate, I can't always wanted to all my life...can't...never have.
