The biggest issue for you will be the side work issue. It limits your ability to take one a larger project. Which are usually the one that give you room to breath. In our group of developers we do have a few moonlighters but we have 5 full-timers as well. My suggestion to you would be until you can get out on your own full-time, team up with some other freelancers. It will broaden the projects that you can service.
