As a stay at home mom, Odesk is really a big help to me, I never thought that I will be able to earn this way. As of now I have 3 ongoing contracts and I am happy to have it although sometimes I think that I don't have much time for my daughter anymore but I try my best to make up with it over the weekends.
Others thought that being a freelancer is easy but they thought wrong, there are deadlines to meet, tasks to finish but what I love about being a freelancer is that I just stay home to do my job, no need to catch for the bus in the morning, rush home at night, experience the traffic, I hate those things.
So to all the freelancers like me, Cheers for more contracts and a brighter future.
