The sunshine was a tease.

Now that the kids are off school for a four day long weekend the sun has gone, and the temperature has plummeted once more. Haha! I just wanted to play some basketball and ball hockey in the sunshine this morning! Is that so hard. Damn. Gosh!

Plans are up in the air, as family members felt I’ll last night, so I don’t know what’s going on for the afternoon. We have Easter goodies for the kids, but I now do not know if it’ll be done here at home, at the farm, and grandma’s house, or elsewhere. Ugh!

I realize I was fairly vague, and short here all this week. I had been waiting on a few large scale projects that I’d hoped to have for last weekend, but which I ultimately hot access to on Tuesday lunchtime. So I’ve been very hard at work tackling a multitude of projects. Eight promo items, six retail displays, four sell sheets, and a report that clocks in around 66 pages, or there about. A non-trivial amount of work for what would be a short week (atleast for the kids). I’m choosing to work the whole weekend, or at least making my services available to offset the time I missed when in Key Largo earlier in March. I made promises to my three largest clients, and I am keeping them. C’est la vie!

I won’t be hard done by anyway. It’s not like I’m driving to go sit alone at an office building for the whole four days. I work from home, so I can, and will interact with my spouse/children inbetween work e-mails and projects. Part of being a freelancer is making yourself available when you have work. To be a larger part of my kids daily lives, by not commuting to an office, I occasionally have to work into the evening or night, and spend a few hours over the weekend prepping for a Monday morning project review. I don’t mind. Like I said earlier, weathers crap, so we’re not out playing ball hockey, basketball or tossing a baseball around. My kids are currently firmly entrenched in Minecraft, so I’m not going to be missed for an hour or two, or three over the course of the morning.

It’s a pretty sweet deal. I like it a lot. I try very hard to be as good a deal for my clients as I can be.

Happy Good Friday, Easter long Weekend, and Easter Monday to all whom have some or all of that time off. Ciao Bella.
