"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Totally Taken With Tassimo (Does This Make Me a "Latte Liberal" Again?)




This little coffee maker should come with a warning on the box! I have had mine in my home since Mother's Day and I am totally ADDICTED! Not only can I enjoy a hot cup of coffee or decaf, instantly, ANYTIME I want one. I have taken to brewing lattes and espressos on a whim. Cappuccinos are next! Haha.

Once I master all of this, my blogging should pick up again, right? I mean... I can brew an espresso anytime I start lagging... and wala, awake again! Haha.

OMG! I just had a horrifying thought... Does this make me a "Latte Liberal" again? (I'll admit it now. I WAS one. Once upon a time.

My Doggy Room is Being Rehabbed now... Aaaacccckkkk! (Thank Goodness for My New Coffee Bar.)



DH just started on the "doggy room" rehab.

That means my own space is continually invaded by little four leggeds. They are everywhere! Which they often are anyways. But, when I have a "doggy room" it is also possible for me to confine them there and have a break. As it is... the only "break" I am getting is during crate time. And, that is limited to night-time and naps.

On the bright side, though, I will soon have a fresh and shiny doggy room. With a ceramic tiled floor that will be ever so much easier to keep clean and disinfected. And it will still open out onto to deck, which leads to the doggy gravel pit (essentially a HUGE litter box for dogs.)

I marvel at how long it has taken us to figure all of this out. To build a perfect rescue space..... But now, I am almost there! (Someone should write a book about this, really!)

While I am waiting for my newly perfected doggy room, I'll just thank goodness that my kitchen is now completed! I can go there to escape for a few moments when I need to. And I get to enjoy this awesome coffee (and wine) bar, much of which was gifted to me by my DH and kids for Mother's Day.
