yesterday morning I made a big pot of coffee and put the breakfast in the oven and went into the living room to check my e-mail and read my Bible, and enjoy time alone on a Saturday morning.
Then, I heard something weird in the kitchen... and I went to see what it was. And it was my coffee. All over the counter. *sobs* my coffee pot had cracked.
I was not happy Bob.
My finances do not allow room for buying extra kitchen appliances.
I took out my frustration on the dishes.
So, we were getting ready to go over to Mom and Dad's and I wanted to go to Walgreen's and get a new coffee maker and the girls didn't think that was a good idea and it was very frustrating and long story short all 3 of us ended up going to K-mart together, where we stood in the aisle looking at coffee makers. Steph and Katie listened to me sighing about how expensive these things are... yada yada...
Finally Katie spills the beans. She and Steph had planned to surprise me with a new coffee maker (tied with a bow) and a card reading "Happy Saturday" :) except I was too stubborn to just let them go alone, and so they ended up having to bring me along... aren't they sweet?
So, I have a new coffee maker in my kitchen now. And this one is NICE, people! It's programmable! So, this morning, the coffee was hot and ready before we even got out of bed!! and... it's RED! matches my kitchen beautifully!!!
