Coffee Time Rebuttal

In my defense my coffee-time is my morning me time. It reminds me of a simpler time at home with John when we had morning coffee together everyday. All our married life it was our catch up, visiting, and news of the day time. It is my favorite time of day and no matter how early I have to get up to have it-it is what makes my day a good one. Even though it's not as good with out my hubby to talk to.
(And yes Ryan it gets my system moving.) But more than that it kicks in my Pollyanna personality. But next fall when I re-visit the every day thing...I'll give Erin's don't shower, don't fix up idea, a shot...maybe I will have a hair and make-up bag packed and do it later in the morning. Of course there are two down sides:
One, I'll scare Jon even more than usual-but he will have to deal.
And two, if I get stopped by a cop there is no way I'll talk him out of a ticket and my streak will be broken. (Unless, I try the-I had to throw on clothes and run to my daughters for an emergency...do you think I'd leave the house like this on purpose? Can you give me an escort..?) Florida cops don't seem to be very compassionate but it's worth a shot.

Or, have Jon and Shannon bring Rylee to you. When my grandma babysat my brother and I, my dad always brought us to her; now, granted, my grandmother didn't have a driver's license and never drove a day in her life, but...

If you watched Rylee at your house, you could have coffee time and get ready while she's already there. And then you wouldn't have to get up an ungodly hour.

I just don't get you coffee drinkers. Maybe one day when I grow up and start drinking it, it will make more sense.

I am sure Jon isn't quite awake enough when you arrive to notice wild hair or a makeup free face. I like to leave the house put together too but after having Miller, I have loosened up on that rule.
