Evenings are enough until the support load arrives
I can build at night. I cannot answer a customer at lunch and also be decent at the day job. The product is reaching the point where silence has a cost. I do not have a plan yet, just the collision.

One change, then stop. Address "I can build at night" and leave the rest of the product alone for a week.
Name the hour you will not answer. I published it. A few people were annoyed and the lunch break came back.
I hired a few hours of inbox help before I hired engineering. The product could wait a week. A person waiting on a broken import could not.

I know the screenshots are a selected week. I still check them when my own week is slow. The product is growing in ugly increments. I am trying to replace the habit with a number I actually own.

- I am staying bootstrapped and I want that to be a choice
It is fashionable to announce it. For me it is mostly that I do not want a board while I am still finding the job the product does. The constraint is real. So is the relief.

- A prospect will pay for a feature I do not want to own
The check would cover two months. The feature is a permission model I have been avoiding. I am tempted because the account is quiet and I know that is a bad reason.

- I hired help before I could describe the job
A designer did good work. I still changed the brief twice because I had not watched a user finish setup. The invoice was fair. The timing was mine to get wrong.
