Mornings are ruff when the coffee shop is closed☕ 😭

We paid the land taxes today. 
We have to go three towns up the road to the Courthouse to do that.
I had hoped to get a coffee from a new shop. 
Yeah, yeah, I’m hooked on coffee.
The plan was for us to walk down to the coffee shop while Cowboy was inside paying.
I can’t remember the last time we were at the Courthouse. 
It’s been a good while.
The coffee shop was totally gone. 
Bummer.
I poked and prodded and forced Badger out of the house for nothing.

I hated to do it, but I went through the toys in the she-shed and the house, and now two big bags are headed to the thrift shop tomorrow.
I overdid it, the way I usually do.
Once I found out the grands liked a certain thing, I started buying every one I could find.
I did keep enough toys so they still have something to do here.
I’ll probably regret that, with the noise and the aggravation when they don’t pick up after themselves.
You can tell they’re bored, so maybe a few toys will keep them entertained.

We didn’t do much else today. 
Our house sits close to three different churches, and one of them runs a bus service through the neighborhood.
On Wednesdays, we usually stay in, just to avoid the church traffic.

I’ll write a few more posts and then turn on “White Lotus.”
It’s not the greatest show, but it’s better than hopping from one random video to another on YouTube.

The nights are long and quiet, and I have to fill them somehow.
So I read, play tablet games, and try to lose myself in the TV.
