    October 5th anoher birhday passes

    This afternoon took in a load of scrap the woman who pays me had her 15 year old daughter visiting,

    I gave her my booze money $50.00 and told her to enjoy herself.



    The look on her face priceless, made my day, glad i do not have a birthday everyday if I'm going to be foolish in my old age.

    I personally didn't think those people were allowed to take what I just call tips, but I found out 3 weeks ago that they can lol.
