Another busy weekend but the girls are at their dads so I have plenty of time to catch up on work. I am coming down with another cold….ugh. Not sure why I tend to get sick so often.
No big plans this weekend. I am considering going to Red Lobster or Long Horn for my birthday. (My birthday isn’t until next Saturday but bringing my kids to restaurants isn’t usually my idea of fun.)
Great Posts From the Week
I’ve been enjoying Taynia’s blog Fiscal Flamingo lately. I especially loved one of the quotes in this blog post: How to Find Time to Get Out of Debt. Her blog is beautifully designed and her writing definitely is fun and sassy. Love it!

Freelance Jobs
I have come nowhere near the amount of money I made last week BUT this is still the second best week I’ve had freelancing so far. No complaining here.
I had set myself weekly goals of making at least $375 in extra income. If I can make that $375 then I’ll have my $1500 for the month. I made more than $375 this week so I’m happy!
I also still have quite a bit of work to do. I need to get my butt in gear so that operation quit the day job becomes a reality soon! So, here are your freelance jobs for the week.

Awe. Yay. Yay. Yay. Thanks for the mention.
Thank you for the shout out! I cracked up when I saw your daughter’s picture. I can’t wait to have kids!
Such a cute picture, she is adorable! thanks a lot for the mention.
Red Lobster or Long Horn are both solid choices! Cheddar bay biscuits or delicious filet mignon? It makes me hungry just thinking about them both.
Thanks for the mention in your round-up. And good luck hitting that $375 each week. I’m sure you’ll have no problem surpassing it!
Jim R – Nice job the pics look awemose! Prob too awemose and I’ll have to take some crappy pics to throw in there so buyers know its a real car and I didnt rip the images from a mag shoot And you know you’re a pro Porsche photographer when you shoot the eye . So thanks for your hard work! It came out better than I hoped.June 28, 2009 7:36 pm
I’m so glad that the internet allows free info like this!
You’ve captured this perfectly. Thanks for taking the time!
“Not sure why I tend to get sick so often.” – I say this because I care…you are simply working too hard and burning the candle at both ends!!
I knwo this is something you need to do until you are able to go fully on your own, but even if it takes you another month over your deadline, get some rest and take care of yourself. Get plenty of sleep. It’s not going to do you or your girls any good if, when you start on your self-employment journey, if you are too sick to work. So, if you can, find ways to ease up a little and get plenty of sleep. Pleeeezzeee 🙂
End of rant!
Take care and all the best.
