Wait for it....!

I was driving to my son and daughter-in-law's with my wife for lunch when the cellphone rang. I pulled over, since I'm no good at talking on the phone and driving, and it turned out it was in relation to a job I applied for with the NZ Post before Christmas. As I also applied for another one with them yesterday I was at first a bit confused as to which one they were talking about. This is a five day a week job, mornings, sorting the mail into
postboxes at one of the main post shops in Dunedin. Not many hours involved, but it's permanent, and it would give me a foot in the door with NZ Post again, which would, I think, be more than helpful. The other job is 25 hours a week, but it's temporary - only four months. I'd sooner have the former than the latter, though even the latter would be possible.
Hopefully tomorrow I'll hear more about it. In the meantime, if I got it, I'd carry on with the evening job until it became unviable because of other evening commitments, like the usual music show we do each year, or performing in a play...or my wife getting really really sick of me being out each night for four hours. It would be nice to be more than ships passing in the night, I must admit, and the current situation, once she goes back to work will entail her arriving home just as I leave, normally. It would more likely be that she'd just miss me each night.
