Keeping Up

So I have not kept up with this bright idea of mine to blog.  My birthday is a couple weeks away. I found out last month that I am being laid off from my job at th end of the year.  Not tripping on that but the uncertainty is definitely unnerving to say the least.  I have some things rolling around to do from home.  The self employment thing.   Is it a blessing in disguise?  Am I taking a leap of faith by not looking for another 9 to5?  Or am I just lazy?  Time will tell I guess.
