Long weekend!

I just got back from Oakland and I am really tired.  This weekend started early on Saturday morning.  I got up at 6 am to finish planting trees that I started on Friday.  Saturday morning was extremely cold, but I had to finish planting trees so that I could load my truck for Sundays show in Oakland.  I finished planting just before noon.  I was expecting two big clients.  My plan was to load the truck in between customers.  One of my clients called and said they would be coming next week.  The other one was a no show.  I loaded my truck and finally I started to relax.  I then went to my sister’s birthday party.  My wife and I got home at around 10 pm.  I got up at 3:30 am on Sunday and drove to Oakland.  I set up my booth and started selling.  After I was done, I went to my daughters place in Palo Alto.  I took my daughter to dinner.  Then I drove to Hayward to spend the night.  I got up early this morning to buy bonsai pots on the way home.  I loaded my truck and left Hayward at 10:00 am.  I got back at around 2:00 pm.  I was going to unload my van, but I had a regular customer come by and spent time helping him.  After he left, I unloaded the pots and labeled the boxes with prices.  I left my van in the back.  I will have to unload the plants tomorrow.  Tomorrow is going to be another hectic day.  The nice thing about this weekend was that sales were good and I was able to get pots to start transplanting trees and creating bonsai’s for sale.
