Coffee anyone ?

The city of Tyler population is somewhere above 300,000. But on any given day, due to the small towns around Tyler, the fact that many work in Tyler, the population is northward of 500,000 and ALL of them are in their cars! Traffic is a pain.

Got lamb shanks in the crock pot with 2 quarts of chicken broth, 1 pint tomato sauce, lots of garlic and spices.

Rain gauge says 5/8” of rain, coming down softly, soaking in, very little run off-just what we needed.

DH wants to go to town. At least it’s not Tyler.

Sorry I missed coffee this morning. I missed breakfast, too. It was errand (yucky ) day. And it was a backward day for me, too. Weatherman said rain. 72f. As soon as I got the chickens covered, it was off to town. Beautiful, warm, sunshiney morning. And here I was, driving, paying bills, and shopping (ugh ). Oh, I mentioned yesterday that I hadn't been to a burger joint in 5 months? I forgot breakfast, it was 2:00, and there was a McDonalds. It stopped my backbone from tickling my belly button, but HOW did I ever practically live on those things?
Anyway, got home, unpacked, made a couple of business calls, and headed outside. You guessed it! Raining! Why didn't I get some work done this morning and do errands now? Oh, we were just talking about lists. Need 30' of chain. Forgot to put it on the list because it was one of the primary things I needed, and would never forget. FORGOT!

Glad I am not the only one who forgets the most important thing, because it was too important to put on the l;st

I don't do it often but I have been known to call home and ask Teresa WTH did I go into town for.

I've never called to ask what I went to town for but I've called to find out what was on the shopping list I forgot to bring with me.

I hate driving to town... I hate most socializing.

I do like the coffee group I go to every Saturday morning.... but that is it.

AND, they are putting in a second traffic light in town!!! A real one, with red and green and yellow lights!

When I moved here there was 1 blinking red light.

We are now up to 2 blinking red, 1 that blinks red to one side and orange to the big street, and soon TWO full traffic lights!

Time to move!!!!

We tell Alexa and she puts the list on my phone.
