You can get a tourist visa for 60 days and then extend it for another 30 days, in fact 90 days.

There is no limit how may visa you can get, so you can go on with this for years.

i am thinking to put a small cafe or internet cafe , or teach Spanish

For this you'll need a non immigrant B visa (business visa) and a work permit.

and try to get a permanent residence

For this you must have been in uninterrupted stay in Thailand for a least three years and paid all taxes.

So for this option you can not been here on tourist visa.

You say that you are "mature woman from USA"

How old are you.

If you are over 50 years there is a better option.

Put 800.000 baht in Thai bank over 3 months and you can apply for extension of stay based on retirement.

You say you want to teach Spanish.

If you are a qualified teacher you may be able to find a job here.

Look under the job offers topic in the business forum.

Bangkokpost.com also has a job section.

A job would get you a visa and work permit.

If you want a teaching job better look at www.ajarn.com. They have a job section and also a forum section. But there is no (big) demand for teachers in Spanish.
