I was sitting at the first of my two open houses for the day reflecting on what a difference a week can make. It seems that March has decided to go out like a lion here in Northwest Indiana.
We were in for a rude awakening this morning. I wanted to pull the covers over my head and go back to sleep when I saw the snow. My first thought was "are you kidding me"!
Today there is about an inch of snow on the outdoor dining set on the deck. The snow is falling gently. The snowflakes are as large as a dime. Last week I sat there watching kids playing soccer at the park behind the home. I walked around the yard looking at the spring flowers that would be blooming soon.
The Robins seem especially fat this year. Maybe they knew this was coming. I wore my long wool coat today (the one with the hood). I thought I had put it away for the year.
I have to smile to myself. It is after all Northwest Indiana.

I have a few co-workers, clients, and family members who are looking for a little extra income. I wanted to let everyone know about the 2010 census. Everyone who knows me well knows I am a big genealogy buff. I wish I had more time for it.
In 2000 I participated in the 2000 census as an enumerator. I was thrilled with the thought that 80 years from now someone from my family line may be interested in genealogy as I am and will see my name listed as the enumerator on a census.
The US census bureau is currently hiring for the 2010 census. The nice part about this job is that you can pretty much make your own hours which is perfect for real estate agents. You have a certain amount of work to get done by in particular time frame.
The pay is pretty good and you do get reimbursed for your mileage. Below is a copy of the link to take you to the page on how to apply for census jobs. I called the phone number earlier this week and they now have alot of local testing locations. Yes, there is a short test, but it is not hard.
