Like other self-employed people, I am at work.  Our president’s celebration that he extended unemployment benefits will not affect the self-employed, of course.  If the work of the self-employed dries up, there is no government bail out for you.

But, government days off  do quieten the phones, and give a bit of a break to do other work.

So, today, after organizing, paying bills, and taking the random phone call from other self-employed people with legal needs, I’ll honor this man, farmer, self-employed surveyor, volunteer militia officer, and the first President of the United States: General George Washington.  Thank you.
