Working in the Kitchen at Escapees CARE in Livingston, Texas

2011-03-12T18:35:00.000-08:00

Work camping at Escapees CARE in Livingston, Texas has not only been a privilege, but it has allowed Chuck and I to learn more about how much volunteer services are needed. The residents who were former RVers, many of them full timers, and some going through recovery of a major illness, always come up to us all and tell us how much we are appreciated and thankful that there are volunteers out there willing to help with the much needed assistance that contributes towards their staying here at minimal cost.

This is the only facility in the country like it and with the work campers helping out, Escapees CARE continues to run smoothly. You can participate in this worthwhile cause for 1 or 2 months, and some stay for longer. For more information and contacts on work camping at CARE please follow this link http://www.escapeescare.org/Volunteering.asp. Jobs that we have performed include helping out in the kitchen; taking meals out to residents' rigs, if they are unable; "On Call" where you work throughout the day helping with count for meals, call residents if they do not arrive for meals, follow-up on incidents that might require ambulance or the nurse on duty; and at times help dump their tanks. During the year helping out with holidays, Health Fair, Garage Sale, and other activities is also performed.

Most of us meet at the round table near the door where we can greet the residents as they come in. They love to interact so we are also allowed to interact and talk to them about their RVing experiences and boy do they have a lot of fun and interesting stories. Many of them work camped here years ago and have fond memories of their experiences.

How to Make Your Business Grow in a Downhill Economy

2009-06-06T19:09:00.000-07:00

Make your business grow and have the time to be more creative, instead of worrying about employees that cost you time and money. Online Virtual Assistants (VA) are available to you as easy as sending them an email. You don’t have to pay out employee salaries, health insurance, extra office equipment, sick leave, vacation pay, or spend time on evaluations—the list goes on. Your only investment is the job your VA does for you at minimum cost. You can contact me at http://www.moonlightmadness.org to find out more about Virtual Assistants and what I have to offer you.

GO GREEN YOUR JOB

2009-06-04T16:58:00.000-07:00

How much time do you spend every day at your job? How much of that time do you spend frustrated that your green personal life doesn’t translate in the workplace, wanting to do more with your professional life? If you daydream about aligning your personal convictions with a fulfilling and inspiring professional position, than maybe it’s time to think about a green job search.

With the stock market scuffling and economy having a tough time, the conventional job market isn’t what it once was. How can you ensure that your job isn’t going to go the way of your portfolio?

Claim your piece of the pie, thousands of jobs are springing up in the green fields, such as my computer based company, Moonlight Madness Virtual Assistant (VA). The time is right to make the leap to a green job that is not only eco-friendly but allows you to spend more time with your family.

The VA business is growing by leaps and bounds and doesn’t get any greener. Why? Just to name a few reasons; you’re saving on gas, environment, and upkeep of your automobile; no more blood pressure medications because of worrying about losing your job in our downhill economy; no more spending money on babysitters or worrying about the kids; but most of all you will be home working online doing the job you want to do, plus you can go out and work in the garden and smell the roses at any time during the day that strikes your fancy.

If you are a small business or professional, hiring a green Virtual Assistant such as Moonlight Madness Virtual Assistant will not only save you money, but will also allow you to have more time developing your business.
