Tuesday Coffee Talk

Good Tuesday morning everyone!  It's time to rise and shine!  A new day has dawned and this IS going to be the BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES!  How do I know?  Because we are alive.  We have good health and SO much to be thankful for! I really don't have a challenge for you today.  Instead, I want to tell you how much "I" APPRECIATE YOU!  I am VERY guilty of not replying to everyone that post to these coffee talks, but I DO read EVERY reply.  YOU bless me!  You are appreciated!  I thank you for 2 1/2  years of Coffee Talk.  I LOVE doing these posts and I look forward to sharing my coffee with you.  I LOVE sharing some positivness in such a negative world.  It's NOT all about me.  I LOVE doing this for YOU!  THANK YOU! So, who's up today?  What cha sipping on?  Me?  I'm enjoying some plain old Maxwell House regular blend.  I love the flavored coffee, YOU KNOW, but there is nothing like some plain old coffee.  Ya'll have a GREAT Tuesday and KNOW how much I appreciate you guys for being so faithful to Coffee Talk!

Randall, I may not reply to each one of your talks...but I appreciate you too.... always upbeat. always cheerful....even if it is forced (grin) God bless ya. I am sipping on some seltzer.... just kidding.... I am sipping on some water. I am honestly working hard on ACTUALLY sipping and not gulping. It is amazing how many character traits and habits I pick up just from observing. Growing up, my dad would GULP down soda....so....I would gulp down soda. I saw him eat 2 plates of pasta....so....I would. I saw him wear size 50 pants...so..I wore size 50 pants....and then beyond.... I don't blame my dad, don't get me wrong, but how we act, what we do....we DO affect others. Making good habits now will rub off on others around us. There is a man that I go to church with...that used to eat 8 plates of food at the breakfast buffet. I never ate tons of food....I did cut back on my 2nd helpings....etc. but when  decided to do something about my weight, I made sure of 2 things.... 1) I did not load my plate with junk.... 2) I did not sit near that man....so I would not be tempted to "compete".... anywho.. this past year, I have seen others in church lose weight with me b/c I was and am being so successful...even without the surgery. long story short.....I need to continue to not GULP but sippppppppp sippppp siiiippppppp (for a min there I forgot where it was headed) thanks again for always being cheerful and upbeat..even if at times you aren't.

Thank you for your morning Coffee Talks.. I don't normally chime in,but read them each day you post them.  Randall, Thank you for helping my days with a smile..
