This post has been rescheduled

I'm late. I intended to put up a post at least once every two weeks and I'm late.

In my defence, things have been a little chaotic lately. I got back from visiting S____'s family a couple of weeks ago, my dad and brother were visiting and I just moved halfway across the state (which is larger than most European countries). On top of all this, I have been working as well.

But the brilliant thing is that I have the flexibility to do this, so long as I have a computer and an internet connection. When we were visiting S____'s family, I was able to keep working when we spent two weeks at her sister's house, when we were at her parent's place and when we spent the day visiting her uncle.

Working freelance is also flexible enough that when my family was visiting and I was preparing to move, I was able to reduce the amount of work that I was doing. (A dearth of work hasn't been a problem for me, yet.)

I have, however, noticed a drawback to all this flexibility. Related to the motivation issues that I have discussed earlier, if one has all flexibility and no structure, it can be very difficult to get things done. So, despite being able to work in the middle of the night if I want, I still try to keep a relatively normal schedule.
