Full Time Web Designer, trying not to Hyperventilate.

by Rachael E.C. Acklin on May 12, 2008

I did it.  I quit the other job.

AIEEEEEEE!

I think – no, I know – that this is a good thing.  This is the right thing.  However, you would have all laughed at me this morning as I bemoaned to Troy that I just couldn’t make up my mind.  I had, I just didn’t want to admit it.  Because I don’t like to let anyone down.

I think I finally realized that I’d be letting them down even worse – and letting myself down at the same time – if I didn’t just take the risk.

Thanks for all your advice, and now I’m going to be blaming you when I run into my first snag.  HA!  Kidding.  :)

@ TrishaJ:

That’s really sweet of you, but I’m wondering why you offered an online book discussion group since I never said I was looking for one. LOL. Be careful not to seem like spam, Trisha!

Yay for life-affirming work! Go Rachael!

I’m sure it’ll be a wild ride — freelancing always is — but your sanity has very definite worth, even if you can’t put a price on it. =)

Oh, by the way:
