A website project fell into my lap, and I'm not sure if I want to take it. Someone close asked me to look over a quote from a firm for a pretty basic ass website. I said this was too high, and they asked if I would give a counter proposal. 95% sure I'll get it, but don't really want to.
On one hand, the budget is very nice (non-profit kinda thing), and I could use a canned CMS solution to sort it out. Although, I'd use something relatively bare bones, most likely.
On the other hand, I really don't want to spend my downtime on this. Literally just finished up a side project with hopes of dedicating my time to personal projects. It's hard to turn down relatively easy money, though. So, I'm not sure what I want to do.
