		<description>Interesting post, as usual. Can I ask - how did you raise your rates with current clients? It&#039;s a tricky topic, and I&#039;d love to hear your thoughts and how you made it happen.

Good luck with the sleep thing. I have four kids - ages 8 years down to 7 months. Not much sleep happening in my house... and more crying than I&#039;d like!

		<description>What you&#039;ve done sounds incredibly reasonable to me!

		<description>the first part of your post makes me want to cry. Those baby days are dark days (as far as I&#039;m concerned). Give me 9 hours sleep anyday!

		<description>I like your analogy. It sounds like it has worked well and you have avoided the possibility of a very hard fall that could have come from pushing too hard. 

If you decide to use that No-Cry Sleep Solution, let me know how it works . . . my youngest still has problems sleeping and he`s nearly two. :S</description>

		<description>Not totally off-topic but still: We have all of Pantley&#039;s books, including one that has yet to come out (for review). And I can&#039;t say enough about them.

Pantley&#039;s big thing? Routine. As such, if you have a routine to your freelancing day, things will work much better as well.
