November 6, 2022：My Wife, New Job, Commuting (1), My Promising Coach（僕の妻、新しい仕事、通勤（1）、ボクの有望なコーチ）

My wife found a new job with more favourable working conditions than others. She is no longer so young. So, it should not have been easy for her to find a new job. I took off my hat to her hard effort and envied her good fortune.
This time, she goes to the office on foot and by rail. It relieves me of exposing her far less to the risk of getting hurt than before. At her last job, she went to the office by bike. It made me worry about her a lot. She had to return home by bike through a dark alley. In addition, she had used the bike, wearing a raincoat even when it rained. 
It has been two weeks since she began her new job. She still seems to get nervous due to the unfamiliar workplace. After she has dinner, she always has a short nap. She looks too tired to watch her favourite TV drama series. I expect her to recover from it as soon as she gets used to the workplace. As far as I know, it seems to provide her with a good atmosphere. She is fully willing to work until her retirement age. 
She is 20 cm shorter but more energetic than me. I do not know where she gathers the energy in her body. She even always tries new things at home. At work, she has been highly assessed. On second thought, she may be my best coach. I had better accept and follow what she says.

　妻が新しい仕事を見つけてきました。年齢からすると仕事を見つけるのは簡単ではないのですが、結構条件のいい仕事を見つけてきました。
今回は、徒歩と電車での通勤です。前回の仕事では、自転車で通勤いました。自転車で通勤していた頃は、心配が絶えませんでした。帰りは暗い夜道を走るので転倒を心配しました。また、雨が降っていても、カッパを着て自転車で帰ってくるので、ますます心配になります。今回は、そんな心配がないので、安心です。
　新しい仕事を始めて2週間。慣れない職場で緊張しているせいでしょうか、帰宅して夕食を済ませると、直ぐに眠くなるようです。好きなドラマも見られないほど眠いようです。話を聞く限りでは、職場の雰囲気のも良さそうなので、仕事に慣れればこれも直りそうです。本人は定年まで続けたいと意欲満々です。
　ボクより20cmも小さい体のどこにこんなエネルギーが詰まっているのか不思議です。とにかくじっとしているのが嫌なようです。家にいても、時間を見つけては、新しい事に挑戦します。外で働けば、それなりの評価を得ているようです。よくよく考えると、ボクの最良のコーチかもしれません。素直になって、彼女から色々学んだ方がよさそうです。
