Ideas....

so I am sitting here with a lot of things in my head... they range from the current house I'm designing, to tommorrow's interview, to the future..... I am definetely nervous about the interview, although this is nothing new... however, I'm not sure if this is the job I want to do. It is somewhat related to Architecture/Planning, but not really. I can't seem to find the perfect work situation, nor can I make my business take off. I've also had a project from the early days come back to haunt me because of a mere 6" difference in property lines..... although this is not my fault since the owner nor the city never asked for a survey to be done, until an Inspector put a stop order. However, the people I did that job for, are those that look to blame someone, so they think it is my fault. I really don't care, and I know it is not my fault, but knowing these people, they can easily tarnish my reputation amongst other contacts.....and that is what worries me.... I really want to continue working on my own, and not lose the liberties that I have by going to work for the man, but at the same time the money is not right, and I need to make the grad school fund increase. What to do? What to do? I hate having these unknowns clear in the horizon... and not being really able to resolve and decide what to do.
