If you a a senior single, living alone, do you put a Christmas tree up?
I guess there are different degrees for alone. When there is absolutely no one in 200 miles around to share with and those people you are surrounded by are basically strangers then the entire world takes on a completely different reality. Things of home and hearth such as holidays indeed seem 'long long ago in a galaxy far away' and as such seem to have no meaning in the present other than to highlight the experience of 'aloneness'... which is something better avoided.
Starting a lawn care business?
i use to chase a mower..that's landscaper talk for mowing because the mowers now you have to run after them.. he res a few tips i learned for the advertising..keep it simple and put flyer's you print up at home around the neighborhoods you already have accounts with..its better to have three clients on a block then six spread out across town..give senior discounts...and knock on doors of the unkempt yards and offer a discount for trial month...do good work and word of mouth will get you jobs.. always remember to close gates..double check gates..very important.. its best to weed eat first then blow all the trash and leaves onto the lawn so when you mow it picks it all up..then a quick sweep with blower when you leave..don't blow stuff into street or neighbors they hate that.. mow in a one way pattern don't turn mower and come back this leaves a uneven looking pattern..and its faster always tend to your equipment..keep it clean and maintained.. now here's the hard part don't do extras for nothing...because if you do ..it will be expected every time and sometimes you wont have the time..and then you will find yourself bogged down and not getting paid for it..and a unhappy customer because you now aren't trimming and hauling all the extra stuff.. always be honest and smile even if you don't feel like it.. your gonna do great..
