Garbage in..........Garbage out
"You owe me $5."
"Actually you owe me extra cuz I touched the can with my hand and got it dirty."
"And I was wearing a sweater which made me really hot.....that'll make it another 50 cents."
"So all together that makes $6 that you owe me."
~My daughter upon arriving home from school~
(and as I glanced out the front window witnessing her loading the garbage and recycle can onto the garden cart this thought crossed my mind.....how sweet- she's finally learning to take on some responsibilities)

Stu-She'll either own a business empire or be an attorney. We keep telling her that someday she needs to use her negotiation skills to earn a living(and pay for our retirement) :)
Liz-yes, I think we can work out a deal, but I think the plane ticket will have to include leaf collecting. Yes, we STILL have piles of leaves hanging around. The police decided to pay us a visit the last time we were burning leaves. Jesse had a friend over and asked if we were going to go to jail. Quite an entertaining sleepover indeed.
Suzy-maybe you can come help her do some chores to help her earn her way to DC? I hear you're very good at cleaning ceiling fans.

I can handle ceiling fans, but I'm not allowed to clean them anymore when I'm by myself in case of an accident. lol

AL- Yeah, she's a barrel of laughs. I have a million more anecdotes to try and record.
