Teenager for Hire




So... Its Spring Break. I personally do not get a Spring Break, it is busier than heck at work, and no chance to take off for fun. The day I do have off this week, I have to go to a Seminar. (Actually, I do have Thursday off) Anyway... I have a teenager who is desperate for money and asked that I make a list of chores that could be done for some cash. I made the list... everything from ironing shirts, cleaning the car, organizing photos, etc. and.... cooking dinner. So she decided that dinner was a definate option, and fixed us this lovely meal tonight of Ham/Cheese Calzone, Fruit, and French Fries. She even did all the clean up (im sure in hopes of a tip) Well... it worked! I could get used to this! You know, come home after a hard days work, and have dinner on the table....hmmmm

Haha I didn't do it for a tip. I did it because it needed to be done...and I had a feeling I was gonna be asked anyways haha

The smile on her face is worth a lot! Looks like an awesome dinner--that is on my meal plan for the week as well. Madison will see this and wonder where her pay is!
