Last week I started working for the US Census as a recruiter. If they had offered me a job that required going door to door, I surely would have turned it down. These ole bones were not meant for such cold weather.
The job requires a lot of phone time, which is fine with me - right up my alley actually. The people are really great and it is nice to have a place to go to every day and interact with people. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed that. Perhaps the knowledge that it is temporary has some appeal as well. I am not tied to something long term. Seems to me that temporary suits my lifestyle for now and I'm okay with that.
This week I also downloaded to my Kindle a daily devotional by Gary Chapman entitled, The One Year Love Language Minute Devotional. I am catching up on the first 10 days of the month (which requires all of about 12 minutes) and I have asked my hubby to consider doing the same. I believe that marriage is a daily commitment, and anything positive that enhances and strengthens your relationship has got to be a positive. And, who can't spare a minute a day? I spend more time than that deciding what I'm having for lunch each day.
Off to continue my reading....Have a joyous and healthy New Year!
About Coach Caprio
- Mike & Mary Caprio
- Mike and Mary purchased their future retirement home on a whim following the snowbound New Jersey winter of 2010/2011. An episode of House Hunters International convinced them that St. Thomas would be an ideal location to live out their golden years. However, they still have a few years to go before they can pack it in and head to the beautiful island paradise that they plan to call home. In the mean time, they are renting their home and hoping that other people will enjoy this cozy island condo as much as they do.
