Right now I am back to freelance, it was too hard for me to work contract in house for a studio, although I respect them greatly.
I am going to school again too but only part time, so the work portion isn't too hard, just the fact to get things done, and get invoices paid.
When you have 2 others (gf and her daughter) that depend on you too, its a bit rough. My gf is in a nursing program, and is finishing in a year, and until she does, it is ultra difficult for her to work.
So last week buried me with clients repeatedly calling me needing something, and me running to get stuff done. It resulted in me falling behind in a project for a company that I highly respect, because of a few of the owners there of whom I am close with.
I got sick probably about Monday night, and my mind and body are just dragging, but feel I can't take any time off because I need to make sure I line up more clients, and am able to keep up with bills (like everyone else here).
So I am nothing special, I am sure there are other people here that have it rough, or rougher. I have been through the freelance thing once before, and when it got dry, life got pretty ugly for a while.
Thanks for the words though, oh... and as far as cheeba goes... one puff of that..and I am dead... asthma wouldn't like it :)
