::coffee chat::

Well, good morning, everyone!

This week is going to be great!  If I were to sit down and have a chat with you over coffee, I would tell you....

....that I am slowly getting caught up on my 90 days challenge [reading the Bible through in 90 days]
::::
....the weather is cold -- not winter-like with snow but definitely not spring-like....I'm ready for spring!
::::
....that my parents are re-modeling the office.  So therefore, our den is a hot mess.  But it super exciting to get [officially] organized in that room.
::::
....I would ask you what you are doing about the fact that Google Friend is coming to end soon.  Are you transferring your subscriptions over to another reader?
::::
....I would tell you that I am super disappointed that Picnik is closing.  Seriously, I just want to round the corners of my pictures!  I'm easy to please.  :)
::::
....I would also tell you that my friends in Washington state opened up a shop!  And they are on such a roll with their shop that they've already gotten a local shop to carry their products!  Woohoo!  Check them out here >>> Far Above Rubies
::::
....I would tell you that real life friends are amazing.  And blog buddies are just as sweet.
::::


Have a happy Tuesday, everyone!!

::good morning coffee chat::

Yep, same coffee cup as last week. :)

So, the first thing I would tell you over coffee this morning is tonight...is my cookie exchange. I should be wild with frenzy because of all the things I have to prepare. But strangely, I'm not. That is a very good thing. I plan to finish this blog post and march upstairs and get cooking.

I would also tell you that yesterday was my Dad's birthday. We went out for dinner and on the way we saw about 12 cop cars. That is not a lie or an exaggeration. We saw six speeding down the highway and they had surrounded a semi farther down the road. I'm sure it will be in the papes today. Then, we took a wrong turn in a neighborhood and saw about six more at a house. Coincidence? Connection? I don't know but it was very interesting. My Dad is sooooOOOO awesome. I love him so much. There were lots of laughs at dinner, too.

The last thing I would tell you is that tomorrow will be 13 years since my Mom was diagnosed with leukemia. Our world was pretty rocked and that is a very nice understatement. The farther we get away from her illness, the more I am grateful for the gift of my Mom. So unbelievably grateful it makes me ache sometimes.

What would you tell me over coffee?

Linking up with Amy...
