Last week I got a job. It's great for me because it is something I can do from home. Just a small bookkeeping job.
I started working away on it at the kitchen table one evening last week. I was toiling away, happy to have this little job to do. As I was eagerly entering figures into the computer, my husband, from the other side of the kitchen in his Cozy Chair asked me if I would make him some tea.
Ah ha! I smiled to myself. For the first time in a very looong time I could answer thus:
"I'm working, you make it." Here is the rest of the conversation.
I'm working too!
No you're not,
you're scrolling around on Ebay.
This is work. I'm adding to our childrens' inheritance.
I got up and made the tea. Who could argue with
twisted logic like that?
