The Little Things

This morning I made coffee in my grandmother's old percolator.  I say old, but she always kept things like they were new.  I treasure every little thing that I have of hers: old dish towels, dishes, a cheap little cake slicer, a nautical ash tray; all the little things she cherished and never knew I would, too.

 

Today I am grateful that:

• I mixed Kona and Ethopia.  Dark, bold, earthy, sweet. 
• I miss my grandmother sometimes.  I wish she could have met John.  I am grateful she knew Kristina.
• John and I played "which hand" yesterday.  He's holding up both fists and examining them now.  Yesterday, he held them up for me to see.  I decided to pick a hand.  He'd put it down as if to say, "nope, pick another."  I would and he'd put both back up for me to try again.  I think we recorded it to video.
• Kristina made dinner last night with cookies for desert.  This allowed me to continue working and watch John.  I still have so much to catch up on my work.
• Getting help with my web server from a guy in Hungary that I've never even met.  The world is so incredibly flat.  That's Kristina's observation and she is right.
• WFH
• Breakfast is waiting for me

Hee-hee, every morning I giggle thinking about Office Space because we have "The Kevin's" and all refer to them as "The Kevin's" on this call every morning.

 

Have a great day!
