I offered my shoveling expertise to my Grandparents and they took me up on the offer. They said they'd pay me in apple pie. How could I resist?

    That's funny. I shoveled by grandmothers' driveway today for about 2 hours and I got homemade vegetable soup in return. Worked for me! Nice run! Be careful out there.

    Ally - Unfortunately, it took me losing my grandparents on my father's side before i really appreciated the others. In some cases, i see them more than my own parents and everyone lives locally.
