There's a mom and pop shop here in DeWitt

that is never open on the holidays,
and that’s for their employees,

but I just know Kwik Star will be packed all day.
even if they get time and a half, its not worth it.

on a totally different note, I’m having eye problems again,
they’re red and irritated, it’s hard to see, and I keep blinking a lot.

it amazes me any of the businesses here on main street are able to stay open, many days they are not open and have limited hours, lots of antique stores is most of it. i think some are only open on the weekends and are closed on holidays too. i always feel guilty going to convenience stores on holidays since the employees have to work, but i went and got a chocolate milk at the gas station today anyhow.

sorry about your eye

yeah, our Main street too. I haven’t checked lately,
but I think a lot of em are open on Sundays,

that never would have happened when I was growing up here.

and also, for a small town, we sure do have a lot of churches.

I guess they’re staying in business.
I think they come from the even smaller towns
that are neighboring us.

yeah the neighboring town next to us, calls itself the city of spires, with lots of old historic churches downtown. it’s like a european river town or something only here in america.

we have a few churches, one does flu shots and also did covid vaccine here in my new town.

i notice when i used to go to church alot of the people from the countryside would come to church in our little city/neighborhood for some reason.

do they have dates on those, how long they’ve been there,
when they were built?

i think most of them were built in the early 1800’s. like much of the town, it must’ve been really booming back then, now the world has forgotten about us.

There’s a shop nearby that makes cupcakes and treats. I think it’s a family owned business. If I wasn’t diabetic, I’d visit them a few times a week.

I have a thing where I like to adopt people. If they need advice on anything, I tell them to message me.

You’re welcome to that, too, if you need an Internet Mom.

We have a DeWitt, Michigan nearby. I lived there when my daughter was about 6 months old. The police there harass homeless people.

that’s terrible.

Our county here is Clinton.

and if I’m not mistaken, DeWitt Clinton was a mayor of NYC.

That’s funny because DeWitt, MI is in clinton county too. I bought a house in a different town there once.
