8 months in to retooling my career, and things are still going well, if a trifle hectic:

  • Both of the clients I've been doing Rails work for have extended their initial contracts with additional work, which strikes me as a pretty good vote of confidence.

  • I've started building out another Rails application that we'll be using as a springboard for a new business as my better half transitions careers herself.

  • The prospect of work in Second Life remains live, though on the back burner as the prospective client is still getting corporate funding in place. I had another promising chat the other day though, and continue to hone my skills (and have fun) on that platform.

  • Daily postings at Web Worker Daily are keeping me in practice as a short-order writer, as well as bringing in a bit of side income.

  • Life is more chaotic than usual, with our impending move to Evansville, Indiana being set for about a month from now.
