Well, first of all, get out of the 1800/month rent. I don't know where you live but there is no city in this country that would require you to pay 1400 a month. You are living above your means and you need to stop doing that immediately. STOP doing what so many people in this country do....stop living above your means.
Secondly, if you have 2 special needs boys and you are a widow, then you are entitled to social secuity on your late husband and so are your 2 sons until they turn 18. That should bring in an extra $2000 at least per month.

First you need to find a much cheaper rent than 1,400/month. Once you do that, you'll have extra money.
To be honest, you are probably not going to find a job working from home. Any opportunities you find that require a start up fee or money up front is a scam don't get sucked in!!
I encourage you to immediately put these jobs out of your mind. Here are some of my tips when looking for a job....
Networking - Register at your local Unemployment Office (you don't need to be on unemployment to register for their assistance). They often will have networking groups on a regular basis. They also are a good source for the jobs that never show up in the paper or online.
Check your local paper -- In many cases the papers classified are now online.
Search Smart Online -- If you don't have a lot of time, spend most of your time at sites that aggregate the job feeds from several job search engines. Prominently these include indeed.com and thingamajob.com.
Organization -- I use a free online application that allows you to track your ads, jobs you apply for, send or print mail merged correspondence, and track your job search history. This site is jobsearchlog.com
I invite you to check it out and you'll be able to keep track of what you apply for.
Good Luck,
Karen
