Do you get paid per hour, per person? Per day as a couple? Or a commission based on the number of trees you sell?<br><br>I'm hoping all goes well for you.Merikayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05378095339747943548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-811611787023250616.post-39576407681095324622010-11-28T12:42:02.551-06:002010-11-28T12:42:02.551-06:00I have to agree.

( I know they were probably sitting around on the lot LOONNNGGGG before then).<br><br>And after a few days you would have trained yourself, quite well at that Thank you!Phyllishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09184706027679979998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-811611787023250616.post-56711296947580246422010-11-28T09:37:25.581-06:002010-11-28T09:37:25.581-06:00Ali I remember not being able to get a tree till t...Ali I remember not being able to get a tree till the first and the the 15th..pay days!!<br><br>Will keep praying for your trees!!<br><br>Hugs CindyCindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02605869260096318108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-811611787023250616.post-43379997276897255612010-11-28T05:27:07.767-06:002010-11-28T05:27:07.767-06:00Looks like you two are getting "the hang"...Looks like you two are getting "the hang" of your new adventure. Also appears to me that you will be in contact with many people over the next several weeks. You just never know who's life you are going to touch or how.

Neil's been well to go see his mother a few times now. I thought I was getting over my cold but I think I kept setting myself back so I did nothing but totally rest and eat oranges and drank gatorade and orange juice today.<br><br>I read the post about your dinner and it looked terrific. I can't believe you did all that in a motor home. My hat is off to you!!! <br><br>Your trees look so so pretty. I hope you filled with many blessing of more smiling faces out there. I know you and Ron are put there to be a special blessing to someone or many. I'll be praying right along with your other friends for many trees to be sold. Like you I fight depression and know what a battle it is. Stay strong Sweetheart and know that I'm thinking of you and praying for you.<br><br>Love, Tracy :)<br><br>PS. I love WA.Tracy Suzannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08643279791342765171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-811611787023250616.post-72272049996439454302010-11-28T00:04:36.054-06:002010-11-28T00:04:36.054-06:00That drill is a bit different from the one we are ...That drill is a bit different from the one we are using. We actually have to stand the trees into the drill and hold the tree straight while the drill puts the hole into it. <br><br>We had a really slow day because of the rain, we sold only 19 trees, a few looky sees but our guys got the lot full, we probably have about 300 trees up in the past few days. Our wreaths came in today and the inside of the tent is coming to life. <br><br>First thing in the morning, we will be flocking trees, a few for customers orders and other just to put them out for sale.<br><br>You guys sound like you have the right attitude, really interested in hearing more about your Christmas tree adventure.Kimberly and Jerry Petersonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06016391687029664293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-811611787023250616.post-76348489865332816362010-11-28T00:03:01.289-06:002010-11-28T00:03:01.289-06:00My dear sis,God put you here for a reason.
