I have been planning to/praying about (I'm not looking for a debate on religion, just telling you how I roll.) going full-time freelance for a few months. Earlier this month my employer, for whom I work from home, called me and said that due to some financial things for the company, he may have to tell me that I had 'til the end of April with him. He let me know in advance because he is a terrific person and wanted me to be prepared.
Well, I decided a few days ago, after months of thought, that whenever this job went away, I wouldn't look for another one, but instead go full-time freelance. I got the call from my boss a few minutes ago telling me that April was indeed the end of the road.
I'm really at peace about it. I have a lot to get together like insurace for myself, my wife and our soon-to-be-born little girl and many other things, but I will be home to stop and kiss them whenever I feel like it, and free to leave town for a few days without asking for anyone's permission or not wanting to use up my vacation time. As long as I have my laptop, I have my office. And my soon-to-be-former employer wants to continue to use me as a freelancer from project to project so it works out. I've been doing a lot more freelance work lately and it's just time for me to do this.
Oh, yeah, and we are moving to Texas at the end of the summer too. It's going to be one wild summer for us. Going freelance. Having a baby. Moving across country.
Exhilirating.
