Between school and track practice, there’s plenty of time:

After school before track I went to Garland’s to find out the price of a tree. Spoke to saleswoman/manager [who] gave me a card with prices on it.

Next I went to "Things Remembered” store in Security Square Mall to find out prices for plaque and engraving.

Wrote prices on the card from Garland's.

And later:

I presented my card with info on the tree and plaque. Those 2 items were agreed upon. Procurement was decided later.
