Dear Sis,

Seeing you after a huge gap. Was worried. Sent you an email too from Blogit. Will read  later. Rejuvenated to see you. 🥺😴🤤

Like your Mom, I am not interested in gossip; it always ends up at someone else's expense, like losing their good name and friends. A funny story is different, something someone read or heard on TV, but gossip, No!

My extended family had a few coffee-ers. I received a lot of info from them.

Bless your mother for her patience. I would not have handled an early morning visit without warning or invitation. My mornings are packed to the hilt with work, chores, and "me time."

There was a time when I made coffee at Sacred Grounds coffee shop here in beautiful downtown Mundane a part of my daily routine - I was newly retired, volunteering at the Community Center as a receptionist, and stopped in after my early shift before heading home. Gossip, eavesdropping, reading the local newspaper - felt a bit like the atmosphere of Starbuck's on 4th Avenue in Seattle - which was the place to be on Saturday morning.

Good Morning

I've loved these posts about "The Coffee-ers." They make me smile.  I was thinking about my own life. I always worked and had to take care of my family.  I remember I used to start the wash before I went to work, and as soon as I came home, I'd put the clothes in the dryer and start dinner.  I was never involved in neighborhood chit chat.

Sea-Gypsy.....

Oh how I miss my mom and her two fun sisters (my aunties).   They would get the Scrabble Game and set it up as a visible sign they were not gossiping.   Oh how I loved their laughter.  I always wished I knew what they were laughing about but they would always speak Czech .  It was maddening not to know, but they were so loveable.
