How do I ***** enter that I received money not paid somebody?

Like cash income?  Why is it asking you for expenses?  That should be after you enter the income.

Just enter it as Cash or General income.  You don't need to get a 1099Misc or 1099K.  Even if you did you can enter all your income as Cash.  Only the total goes to schedule C.
