    my parents collected antiques, so I have quite a few old things. Two that have family connections are an old trunk that came to America with some of my immigrant ancestors in the late 1800s, and a very cool small rocking chair that can fold up.

    babysitting, unless you count doing chores at home. (I think I got a dollar a week allowance from my mom. Dad's philosophy was that kids did chores in exchange for the clothes on our backs, roof over our heads, and three square meals a day.)
