He works till 12:30 every night and gets up with his wife at 5:30 a.m. to build a sign for a garage sale. Help set the garage sale up. Then he takes the sign up to the highway to advertise the garage sale. Hours later the city takes the sign down. Meanwhile, he has gone to Dillons to get milk for the kids' breakfast. Picked up breakfast for the wife. Then he runs daughter #1 to her babysitting job, comes home and hangs out with the family, wife and garage sale people. Then takes kiddos to piano, picks up daughter #1 from her job and takes her to piano/violin lessons. Hangs out till the gang is done with lessons. Picks up lunch and brings everyone home to eat really quick. 3 kids grab swimsuits and dad goes off to swim lessons with 3 of the 5. Comes homes, enjoys a moment of quiet, then lets tired wifee have a quiet moment on the couch and packs up garage sale while she is unaware. (I think that is why he let me have a quiet moment.) Packs up hockey loving son for practice and comes home. Hangs out with kids. Goes to bed early, willing to get up in the morning and start all over again. Except, this time he is willing to man the sale while wifee hits the neighborhood sales 5 miles away! !
He's a pretty awesome guy!
