Ask a man how many hours he works in a day, the number varies...but it's usually in the 40-hour range. Me? I work about an hour or two every month.
WHAT?!?!?!
Yeah, vacuuming, cleaning the bathroom, etc...THAT is work. What I do for a living? If you love what you do that much, how can you really call it work?
I really do love my job. :)
3 clients in one day...and shop "work" for 2 more...
Everyone's happy...how can I not be?
I almost wish a genuine "thank you" really WOULD pay my bills...because I'll accept those all day long with no guilt. Too bad money always enters into it. It's not that I feel guilty about charging, it's that I feel like I just said "your sister's gonna LIVE!!" and just as the happy tears start, I hand them a bill. It's just such a killjoy. Necessary, but still...
I know I'll never get rich doing this...at least not the way I do things (meaning honest), but I know I can sleep at night knowing I did right by those that are relying on me.
Now...if only getting my coursework done and cleaning house was as energizing...
(The music is just what I happen to be listening to on Pandora...but damn, it's good! It's basically instrumental - as in no lyrics - Celtic/metal hybrid. Great stuff. It's a bit bizarre...like "happy-go-lucky-thrash"...which, in terms of music, is somewhat of an oxymoron, yet it works! Oh, boy does it work!)
