Not Your Typical Pets

All the kids worked for dad.  Once we got to junior high we'd walk down to the store after school (about a mile and a half).  I was in charge of dusting and vacuuming and once in a while I could file.  We started at 25 cents an hour.  The older kids when they got to 16 got to start delivering furniture.  When Craig was out delivering furniture and when he'd drive out in the country he'd always come back with animals.  He'd bring home pigs, rabbits, homing pigeons.  My mom about flipped out.  She didn't let us keep the pigs.  We even killed the rabbits once and ate them for dinner.
