{Virtual Coffee}

Tuesday, November 2, 2010


Tuesday morning means coffee
Usually.
But this morning I am having Yogi Peppermint tea.
It's yummy and I am trying to cut back on the coffee.
A little.
I said trying.



So if we were really meeting for coffee today I would tell you...

that I took the kids with me to vote this morning.
 That means we had to get out of the house a little earlier than usual,
which naturally has me running a little bit late for everything else today.
Oh well, what else is new?
I think it's important that the kids realize at a young age the significance of voting.
I mean, I know they don't really get it yet, but we want them to know from an 
early age that it is important and it is a big deal to us.
I remember it being a bit of a big deal growing up.
My parents always voted, always.
And they would never say who for.

How was your Halloween?
The kids had a good time and got way too much candy, but that's Halloween.
I am done with the candy.
No more.
I usually have a day of eating way too much and then I cut myself off.
I am officially cut off.
Cinderella and The Army Man have a couple more days before I throw it all out though.

If we were really meeting for coffee today, in real life, I would ask you who cuts your hair.
I need someone new.
But I can't seem to make the switch.
I hate trying new people.
I mean, I don't usually even like what my regular hair dresser does so why would I
 want to start all that up with someone new?
I need a really good cut, from someone really good.
But it can't be over-the-top expensive.
 Honestly, I never really like my hair at all.
Is everyone that way?
I can't stand it, need a change, and then don't like the change.
Want bangs and then hate them and want them grown back out.
Immediately.
Then hate them grown back out.
It's too long, too thick and I am guilty of usually throwing it up in a little bun so I don't have to fix it.
I need a hair intervention I think.
sigh.

If we were really meeting for coffee today I would tell you that 
I love the trees and all the Fall colors right now.
Unfortunately,  I know one morning soon I am going to look out our upstairs windows 
and the trees are going to be empty. I hate that. We have been lucky enough to have a beautiful
 Fall this year and I am so not ready for Winter. This is the view from my back door...


So if we were really meeting for coffe today I would ask what's going on with you.
What's new?
How's work? How are the kids? Your business? The house? 
The man? What projects are you working on?

I would tell you thanks for meeting me for coffee today and sorry I was running late 
and have a bit of a grouchy mood I can't seem to shake.
That's kind of annoying, huh?
Hope you have a great Tuesday!
Oh-and go VOTE.
