Say "No" to Mid-Winter Blues
It's mid winter, the cold weather is setting in, the selection
of flowers available isn’t great and the prices are high. Schools are on
holiday and business is quite. Petrol goes up this week and Madiba is still on
life support. Can you just imagine the deluge of positivity that is going to
feature in the media this week?
I’m not buying into it. We’re going to have a good news week
at Country Flowers. Let’s celebrate winter, plan for spring which is 9 weeks
away. Celebrate the life and times of Madiba, how lucky we are to have had the
pleasure of sharing our country with such an icon. Who was so wise, level
headed and generous! Yes the petrol price will have a detrimental effect on our
disposable income, so let’s share cost saving ideas and spread the word of places
that offer good value for money. On the flower front I’m going to bring you
some great ideas that only use a couple of flowers and make a great impact and let’s
not forget flowers last longer in winter.
The truth of the matter is that we are for the most part
going to live through this; how I do it is entirely up to me. I think a day
without a laugh, a smile or a kind word is wasted and I’m not sure how many I’ve
got left so I may as well make each one count.
