So Dave gets this idea that the kids should earn some money so they can be financially responsible... y'know tithe, save and spend (a little)...
"I'm not doing a paper route!!", I'm quick to point out to him. I'm not an early bird and papers have to be completely delivered by 7 am. Who wants to be out all winter before 5:30 am?? Does Dave listen to me? Yes he does!! We don't have a paper route... we have a Sears catalog delivery route... oh, scratch that... one is NOT ENOUGH!! We'll take 2 please. Yes, we are now the proud owners of a combined 1200 home SCR in Oromocto!!! Yes, Oromocto is on the other side of Fredericton.
Of course if we moved there....
We spent two afternoons delivering and we are about half done. We need to do this 19 times a year!!
The idea was to take both cars for a full day on a Saturday to get them all out. Dave had to choose his delivery day to spend the day in bed doped up on morphine (for his kidney stones!!!).
I'm sure we are all learning something from this... right?
