From Bikes to Trains to Video Games...

Well, the time had come. I did what I had to do... That's right, I got a part-time job.
Starting next week, I will be working two days a week at Toys "R" Us. I have to get used to the "R" thing, because they use it EVERYWHERE. You should see the back room. Oh my goodness. "R" Team; "R" Responsibilities; "R" Customers Are "R" Priority. For a grammar nut like me, this is going to be tough.

But, I digress. I am a Money Counter. Is that a job title or what? I am well over-qualified for the position, so it works out just fine. I get to go in, count money, and come home in plenty of time to see my kids for the latter part of the afternoon and the evening. I'll be home at bedtime and on days when Jay works and we'll still have all day Sunday as a family. It's really the best possible scenario if I have to work, except for the pay. Alas, they only hire at minimum wage, but it should be enough to help us through this difficult financial battle.

I have to find some money to go buy a red shirt before my first shift. Hmm...
