He said he'd just like to Make 100.00 bucks a week to keep from having to get into the bank savings so...
I put the word out up the holler to a few people and he's lined up for some weed eating work.
He's ran out of stuff to do at the house and he doesn't. Like setting around doing nothing.
He's happy to have a little extra money coming in..
I got a 2.00 an hour raise so that helps and im.gonna.pick up another day a week to help ease his mind.
Were.gonna make it and not end up hating each other.
This weekend we're going on a fishing trip too.

Fishing trips always make life seem better.
Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

You should pick up more hours so Jerry doesn't have to work.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

100/day would be more like it. Thats only 4 hrs at 25$ per hour if under the table.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

You should pick up more hours so Jerry doesn't have to work. It's been said on here before: "It's a lazy man that can't find his wife a second job!"
Most in this country have things people in other countries only dream about. Yet, they want America to be more like those other countries.

We're going fishing Saturday.
He did 2 jobs one yesterday and one today and made 200.00 so the rest of the week he can work for himself.
Our neighbor has some farm jobs he wants Jerry to help him with so he's set for work when he wants it.
He's happier today than he been since he sold his fur.
Both people were very happy with his work.
We have no plantations or rich people near us.
We are very rural.
here we an ADC guy would starve to death on his wages because people here will handle their problems with varmints themselves.
He's happy..I'm happy. It's a good day.

He worked for my cousin again yesterday. She pays very well.
He feels.lime she overplayed him. She didn't.
Jerrys problm.ia that he don't understand his value as a worker.
He works harder tha 2 regular men.
He extremely underestimates his value as an employer
Nittany. I ha e picked dup an extra day and gotten a raise but Jerry doesn't like spending " my" money.. I told his it was ours

No she didn't. He did alot of oqrk for her. She paid him 230.00 for the 2 days.
He weedeated both sides of a half mile driveway..at least half mile.and did a crapload of other stuff.
She paid him 150 for the driveway. It was steep and overgrown and probably 60 feet wide one side and 8 on the other.
He said he'd have done it for 50.00.
It took him.right at 7 hours and he was working his butt off.
That's what I mean by He undervalues his worth.
