Coffee anyone ?

[canesisters]

I started a couple of weeks ago with no four & no sugar..... turns out that I was much more fond of sweet creamer than coffee
Black coffee is not nearly as much fun .... but getting through shifts without big hits of caffeine did NOT go well.
Oh well. Coffee is down , off to the feed & grocery stores.

Always straight up coffee here. My dad was Navy and you got straight coffee!! Come to think of it, I can't remember all the sweet creamer stuff even available back then. Yeah, plain sugar, plain milk. But.i do have my hot tea English style, sugar & cream.

The History of Coffee Creamer

Back in the 1940s, Bob Smith and Holton W. “Rex” Diamond were working at Henry Ford’s Carver Laboratory. There, the two men developed a soy cream substance that could be mixed with coffee, creating the first coffee creamer. Several powdered creamer products hit the market in the early 1950s...

Cautiously sipping coffee today. Toothache started Sunday. Dr. Me prescribed some antibiotics and saw much improvement. Problem is still there but I can live with it until I can deal with insurance etc. I don’t do dentists well. Was never taken as a child (parents went but it never occurred to them to take me). In the mid 1970’s I had badly impacted wisdom teeth and ol Doc Hometown had a hell of a time with them. He didn’t believe in pain meds- “yer young you’ll get over it”, nor had he upgraded his office equipment. See below. As far as I know that model of treadle drill was dated ? 1920’s. Ropes swished by while your dentist pumped furiously on a footpad. When he couldn’t do it his hygienist took a turn. Made a racket that would raise the dead. I needed 8 stitches, 4 to a side to close up the mess. My paramedic brother took out the stitches, I was cured of dentists. I’ve paid for it though and will again shortly.

Still cloudy up here....

I am doing a temp job (helping out someone from church) just for a few weeks...

But I have to get up at 7am.

I know some of you get up early... but back when I did the "regular work" thing I made sure the jobs I took started at a reasonable hour... like 10 at the earliest!!!

Not complaining... just.... different... very different from my normal

Just about. Having never been at a dentist’s office I had no idea what to expect. Plus my parents used that dentist. The pneumatic hammer was a hoot too. Why the guy wouldn’t, oh I don’t know, use Electricity to power his dental tools is a mystery.

Up at 4:30 (planned - told myself wake up at 4:30) Dogs out, and fed, packed up a hot mug, homemade "egg-bite", special dog treats and out the door around 5:30 to train Sage. Detection stuff - the world is my oyster at that time of day. Store fronts, loading docks, alleys are all good to go. Finished that up by 6:15, then dropped off eggs and avos at DS's house, back home to take care of sheep, help DH set up a new shade sail for the ladies and lambs and then out to weed whack for 3 hrs. In for lunch (now) and back out to weed whack for some more hours. Phew.

Coffee is ready. I use plain cream, the so called real stuff from a cow. @canesisters Heavily processed, but at least no sugar. I like the flavored stuff, but it’s some kind of artificial flavor (chemicals) and loaded with sugar, so I don’t use it. This week I’m on a sugar and carb overload. Granddaughters love to come to Mamaw’s house. We made rice crispy treats, jello, homemade pie crust for that pumpkin pie we polished off last night, flour tortillas for tacos, grilled cheese sandwiches, and no Pilates. Not much exercise at all, rain, heat, gnats that bite, mud and more heat. I’m gonna have to double up next week!
