Why Is It ...

… that I say Good Morning to everyone except those who say it’s too early for my bull shiz; to them I say, 'Get up earlier.'

… that my coffee looked at me this morning and whispered, ‘Sorry, I don’t do miracles.’

… that people don’t get that driving alone is tiring; I have to be the lead singer and the backup singer, the dancers, the drummer and the guitarist, etc.

… that no one understands that I don’t do second chances; 53 chances and then I’m done.

… that most of the time my mind is like someone emptied the junk drawer onto a trampoline and then started bouncing.

… that I am happy being the reason a nun clutches her Rosary when I walk by.

… that when I was dating and filled the room with candles, my date called it romantic and yet I knew I was about to perform a sacrifice.

… that when people ask if they can come over I say, ‘Sorry, my house is in the shop.’

… that we’re often told we catch more flies with honey than vinegar but I can catch plenty out of your hollowed out carcass, so this can go either way.

that I love the idea of being someone’s peace, but unfortunately I’m crazy.

  5. ‘Sorry, my house is in the shop.’ Odd expression - do you mean the workshop - like a car?

    1. Yes, we take our cars to the shop; "It's in the shop," generally means repair shop.

  6. Crazy is such a personal judgement, we like you just the way you are.

    ☕️ Up until last year, when I was lazy in my retirement and did not remove myself from bed until 9, I would create a real, delicious mocha latte for myself for brunch! Then I turned 70 and, as if on cue, my body said "act your age" and won't let me sleep past 6 at the latest. My energetic brunch barista disappeared and I'm not good at coffee straight. But, I added caffeine tablets to the rest of my morning vitamins. I'm awake 👀 without some of the effects of drinking coffee! Whee! Miracles! 🤠😁

    1. I only have one cafe con leches in the morning, and sometimes one coffee while at work. I do love those two coffees though.
