The Meaning of Life?

I’m letting myself get bummed out again. I need a kick in the bum, I suppose. Our dog dies then I find out Richmond’s way awesome coffee shop, Sacred Grounds, is closing December 1st. Starbucks just opened recently so I blaming Starbucks. Yea, they have good coffee but I preferred Sacred Grounds. Their chillers were the best, the mouth-watering menu one-of-a-kind, the ambiance cozy and classy, and the coffee, oh, the coffee. I’m sorry, but Starbucks with their anti-God cups can’t touch local coffee shop coffee. It was made with love. My faves- Café Mocha and Mocha Latte for my sweet tooth and my brew of choice was called…."The Meaning of Life." Oh, man, I’m SO BUMMED. But, perspective kicking in, I’m THANKFUL I’ve had this blessing while it lasted and I’m THANKFUL I have a coffee maker and International Foods and Coffee Mate creamers and I’m THANKFUL we still have Charlie’s Coffee Shop where they will be setting up the Christmas Train Display very soon.
I’m still going to miss Sacred Grounds and my dog, Gomer – gonna have to just be honest here. Wha – I’m such a whiner! Sorry…
Our house is still a disaster from the seasonal switchover so worked on that some. Life will be easier in the future when we have to go through this again due to getting rid of so much but it’s not easy now. I took Natalie to the orthodontist who gave her an ultra sonic toothbrush. He told her it’s not available in any other countries and I asked her if that means they were BANNED in all the other countries or just not available. My daughter putting something called "ultra sonic" into her head just doesn’t sound healthy. Will it clean better around the braces or will the combination of the braces and the weapon cause our power to go out, dry up our well, and her hair to change color? Am I exaggerating just a bit? Well, after that trip, we made another drop at Goodwill and another Wally world run even though I just bought a month's worth of groceries Friday. I crashed and burned when I got home – altostratus day – can’t function – must have happy lights. We really do need to invest in those sunshine lights throughout the house. I get that S.A.D – seasonal affective disorder, I think it is. Whatever it stands for, it IS SAD. Anyhoo, as soon as Craig came home, we set out to see our friends’ 1830s house they are restoring and getting ready to move into. Craig mentioned our friends are in their element but that is SO not him. He’d rather pay twice what a house is worth and not have to fix a thing! LOL! We ate din din, came home, here I am now before I collapse trying to make sure I don’t’ procrastinate with my blog again.
Well, that’s as deep as this post is going to get tonight.
God Bless! Hugs in Him!
