Mustering up all the energy I have to get ready for my last plant commitment for the year!

I've transferred lots of terrarium plants out of grow bins and into a grow tent. I'm hoping for easier management and better overall growing conditions. So far so good! Begonia lugonis seems happy with the change!

Next Saturday, October 29th I'll be posted up at a local plant pop up with a table full of plants for sale. Details soon!

Some spectacular variegation on these baby frydeks! I'm definitely pleased with how they are coming along after their long journey. I've had so many (expensive) plant losses this year so I'm enjoying this small victory. 🥳

Well, I'm finally giving into reality...

I just don't have the energy to keep my shop open right now, so I'm taking an extended break. I'll be moving out of my space at the Program at the end of the month.

I'm relatively numb right now. I wanted to believe I could be Super Woman and power through this difficult time, but the truth remains that I'm merely a mortal human.

I'm going to use this time to focus on my body, my baby, and eventually building a better plant nursery set up. I'll be back when I'm able for more markets, pop-ups, and hopefully a new physical shop location.

See you later! 😘

I was fortunate enough that my Grandfather bought me a flight to visit my family in Ohio.

It's been so nice being surrounded by them, as I embark deeper into my pregnancy. They are the most selfless and caring people I know and I'm so proud they are my family.

It's also been a nice break from thinking about shop stuff and general short comings. Pregnancy has forced me to adjust to a slower pace and it's not always easy to allow myself the grace I need.

I'm trying to reconcile emotions from receiving a not so wonderful review on the business today. I was unable to meet someone's expectations, and while I'm wise enough not to take it personally, I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt.

Keeping any small business afloat is no easy task. We pour our hearts and blood into the fight. And believe me, I've wanted to give up SO MANY TIMES. I have to convince myself to keep pushing, constantly.

All this to say, I'm not giving up yet. More plants ARE coming, despite every reason I can think of to stop trying...

In the meantime, I'm not going to worry about playing the algorithm game, or how bare my shelves are. I'll just be over here doing my best and enjoying life as much as possible. 🙃
