One of the SPEA residents, a representative for Scott, posted a request from his colleague at Bonnie plants for stock help this weekend: $150 cash for 8 hours of work.
So, Em worked at Home Depot and Lowe’s yesterday from about 3:20 in the afternoon to about 8:23 that evening. Em worked with Scott, the Bonnie’s rep, at Home Depot while I had lunch/supper at Chili’s and worked on a .NET project. Em had lunch/supper at Burger King, then we both worked at Lowe’s.
It was fun work and very tiring. Em knew what to do and confidently directed me.
We decided both of us like to either work alone or in pairs. Any larger group inevitably includes a pecking order, and usually the new person is at the bottom.
We lucked out on traffic for our shift. By 3, it was slick going over the bridge.
Ron, meanwhile, did some work on the shed! He put up shelves and it looks fantastic. Contents need more culling, and that’s up to me.
Yesterday morning, I stopped at two garden club plant sales, Osterville and Cotuit, and then Soares, but didn’t find what I wanted. Had great luck at Sprout Farm, though: picked up about $25 of herbs.
Some really nice stock at Home Depot and Lowe’s. The Bonnie rep said this is their biggest weekend of the year. Makes sense.
