78 jobs later

Sometime probably before Christmas Grace and Kate thought it would be a good idea to break dad's skullcandy headphones, like rip the cord in half. These headphones were a free company replacement from the previous headphones that broke through probably too much handling from the afore mentioned duo.

On the night they broke them, they were told "We don't have money to replace them and that dad uses them a lot so they needed to get to work". It started very slow, died out for a while, picked up speed through the 40s and 50s and now has 2 jobs left. Grace has done the majority but I am pretty happy to see them working off the $80 with 80 jobs. I do fear what will be broken next to keep my girls employeed or what they now are going to want to work to get.

A side note... since Skullcandy is based in Park City, Rich headed over there with them in hand in January and received another free pair. Probably more because he has a in depth opinion about audio equipment and chatted it up with them on how great the first pair were in comparison to the second set. That shouldn't make a difference in the dollar per job right?

100th Day of School

"100th day of school was so much better than that other day" (that other day being Groundhogs Day). Everyone got to bring 100 things. Grace took princess stickers. They counted a few peoples 100 things and played games. They all got to dress up like 100 yr olds too. There were a few with the intensity of Grace, who wore pink rollers, a shawl, a robe, a zip up Walmart night gown and her support hose...err tights. And guess what? Tomorrow is Teacher Something Day so there's no school. She's so excited.
