The next big thing…
We got a paper route. When I was a kid, I delivered newspapers. In college I delivered newspapers to the racks and then to the paperboys. I even printed the college newspaper for a semester. The opportunity came up to get a paper route right near our house. I took it with the goal in mind of giving the kids some work to do and some money in their pockets.
We started at 4:30 am this Monday. It has turned into the family activity. All seven of us go out to do it. The kids get five cents for each paper they deliver. My youngest, the future accountant, knows exactly how much money he has earned at any given moment on the paper route.
So now we have to learn a new schedule and get used to getting up early in the morning.
It will be a lot of fun, especially when it gets cold and snowy.
