my dad owned a paint and wallpaper store in brampton, ontario.
my mom was a nurse.
once us kids came along my mom was a stay at home mom until the recession hit in the early 80s. she then went to work in store with my dad.
in 1986 my dad sold his business and we moved to bc.
my mom got back into nursing and my dad worked as a sales rep in the sporting industry for years. eventually he had enough of traveling around bc/alberta/sask and left the sales rep gig to manage a thrift store in town. he took it from a fairly small thrift store to one of the larger ones in kelowna.
