Yay Almost August!

July 30th, 2012 at 11:37 pm

I feel a giant burden has been lifted off of me. My giant horrible freelance project is finished. I'll submit the invoice for $2,000 tomorrow. (and when the check comes, it'll cut the car loan in half!)

The weekend consisted of a date night rock show, sleeping in, time to putter around the house, go to a birthday party and a festival, and to start cleaning and organizing the basement (in prep for my office actually being finished).

I sold the extra unused drywall from my basement office project on craigslist for $60, and the guy just picked up. Also gave him the stack of odd-sized peices, half bucket of drywall mud and extra corner seams. I'm happy to be rid of it! I made a little money and saved a lot of hassle. (no truck to take it back to the store for a whole refund). There's a lot more room in the office/basement now that that stuff is gone.

of course, no wire transfer from the deadbeat friend who owes us 5k, but fingers crossed, right?

    Way to go on finishing the job...hopefully the deadbeat "friend" will turn over a new leaf and pay!

    That is a heck of a project, and it is DONE! The fact that it leads to a nice payoff at the end is all the better. (And if they were a pain in the rear, then you have the added insurance that you don't have to work for them again, that is the beauty of a freelance!) Enjoy making a dent in that car note!
