About a month ago out of anger, frustration, and depression I deleted my journal and gallery . Several have wondered why. I was a bit short, didn't want to discuss it. Didn't want anyone to know how low I felt and tried desperately to push on. Posting here and there in one thread or another, but just never felt the same as keeping my journal and chatting with the few who chose to come by and visit.
After several months of frustration I'd just about given up the hopes of picking up a contract. Met with several clients. They seemed pretty happy with me, but still they were a no go. However, FINALLY, today I have picked up a contract and a great contract too.
They didn't drill me like I was some newbie in the field, in fact they were very professional, respectful and excited about my skill set stating how it was just what their client needed. On top of that, it's close to my home. Only about 8 miles away which is very cool. To top it all off they are giving me the bill rate I asked for unlike several of the clients I'd met with whom for one reason or another, ok their budget, couldn't pay me my bill rate or just didn't want a female on the team. Or...who knows?
Well, low and behold I've finally got my dream contract, close to home, fits my skill set to a tee, and paying in the mid $80,000.00.
I'm feeling very good again. My life will be back to normal. I've been missing my old lifestyle so very much and here I just had to wait and be patient as the Lord provided the right opportunity for me.
Thank you Jesus! Thank you sweet Jesus for giving me another chance!
