Welcome! Join me daily as I blog about flowers, gardening, my photography adventures, life in upstate New York, the importance of chocolate in a well lived life, or anything else on my mind.Today is Small Business Saturday. I traditionally write a Small Business Saturday blog post. But today, my mind can't seem to get into the groove.
I did almost none of the traditional Black Friday or Small Business Saturday things. I didn't get up at 5am. I slept in. I went walking. I read. I watched TV. I got ready to put holiday decorations up. I did feel a little guilty about shopping online at a couple of chain stores that have a brick and mortar presence here, but they offer curbside pickup and, I reason, they employ locals. I'm sure going to like those slippers I treated myself to.which was also the last time I was in there. Several small businesses are located in that mall. I know someone who works in one of them. Hate to say it, but too depressing.
I ended up going to the grand total of one small business today - a nursery. I bought a ZZ plant , a self watering pot , some potting soil, and two small but fancy poinsettias.So, this strange year, I am not going to guilt myself. I'm alive. I am not sick. I am who I am, and that is OK.
