Clothes and food are my rewards. when I work both jobs and the paychecks come in at the same time, there is extra for a shirt or slacks, and food on the table. Not the fast food kind either.
I was raised in Northern New England by a Scott and a Mid-Westerner. The reward for my hard work is more hard work and guilt about not working hard enough!
But seriously folks....
We buy better quality clothing, more reliable vehicles and we are saving up to make a down payment on a house. Neither of us are much into gadgets and our social life is pretty dull.
We might go away for a few days this summer but I don't travel well and Rose did all of her big trips when she was in high school. Both of us cook well so restaurants are not that big of a deal. If we want a break from cooking we make my brother cook when he comes to visit.
