mmm, coffee

[MaryB]

Get up around 11AM(extreme night owl, fell asleep at 6am last night), shower, get dressed, crank up the corn stove to warm up the house, grab a 14 oz glass of V8 and a coke. Coffee only if I am out of coke then it is Folgers. Turn on the ham radio and listen to Alex Jones while I check my cooking and alternative energy sites...

Coffee, throne/news, shower, coffee/CAST BOOLITS, coffee/breakfast, computer work or machine shop work.

farmerjim,
I've been a diabetic for 17 years ..... Most nights I sleep till about 6 before having to pee, on bad nights I usually know what the cause is ....

[JSnover]

Home roasted coffee through a french press(way better flavor than a drip machine)

You know it!
Been roasting my own for 7-8 years and there is no better way.

[oldarkie]

back in the early 90s I shot trouble at night for kcpl,worked by the folgers plant sometimes .when they roasted it smelled so good.i wish coffee tasted that good.

Up at 4-4:30, turn on the Bunn and then the puter. Drink first pot, then make another one. I will drink almost any coffee, but usually it is Community Medium or Dark Roast. I am a morning geezer and the "barefoot" style coffee (no additives like cream or sugar) makes the mornings even better. This morning I sat on the front porch looking at the fog drift over the water--no sunrise to enjoy this am, but was a balmy 68 degrees at 5 am.

My old daddy, God rest his soul, used to say there is no bad coffee, just some better than others. I used to say I only drank coffee when awake, but in my later years can not drink it right up 'till bedtime or I suffer from the "high test caf overload. Raining here and I am on third pot--boss lady does not drink it anymore so I have no competition. I wanted to move a milling machine today, but may have to wait--too bad as I have 6' 4" 230 grandson to help today, Life is good in my world.

I work just down the road from the Folgers plant in New Orleans East. Man does it smell good in our parking lot some mornings.

Folgers Classic Roast in a GE percolator unless I'm camping, then of course it's Ol' Blue on a Coleman stove. No dog to let out these days but I'll probably correct that soon. Drinking coffee and posting on CB in the morning is a special treat for weekends, I'm usually at work before most civilized feet hit the floor.

[mold maker]

Awake waiting on the 5:00 alarm, feet on floor, and heading to john for SSS. To kitchen to start coffee and breakfast. Call SWMBO to the table and serve. Old habits are hard to break.
No pets to deal with, but getting 4 grand kids ready and to school usually takes till 8:15.
CB is next and, yes the good swap & sell is already gone.

I get up in the morning and put the coffee on to get done and get dress and then put the dogs out in there pen and then clean up after them and change there water and then grab a cup and then got on here and see what is going on after I fininsh the first cup go out and get the dogs in and feed them at the same time i eat because one is a puppy still and one s 13 years old they both have different food to eat and after I am done eating and the older one is done I grab my 3rd cup and see what is on TV for news most of the time and the puppy is still eats most of the time and then get on here again and go form there.As for the kind of coffee it is the cheap one i can buy.

[sundog]

No, that wasn't yesterday morning. I was up all night gutting, skinning, and butchering reindeer. Strange, as I usually don't see them this far south.

Well, Ric, I was waiting a spell to say anything, but you need to know that Santa was a might peeved when he arrived in Oklahoma with only part of his team. He told me to pass along that you need NOT put up a tree or decorate next year, an definitely NO stocking hung on the mantle! He said something else about something being hung, and something about balls (I don't think he was talking about Christmas balls), but I didn't get all of it. I'm afraid it may take a good while for him to get over this. Just passin' it along...

[waksupi]

Bah, humbug!

[popper]

Wife gets up at 4, I take the dog out about 7-8, brew another cup of whatever she left in the 1 cupper. Sometimes it's Gevailia. Make the bed (sometimes) then CB unless I got early chores to do. Oldarkie - that would be the Hawthorne plant by the river?

[bangerjim]

After hearing all the + things about 2 cups of Joe each day, I started drinking it again after years on not. Diet Pepsi in the AM.

BP and heart rate went thru the roof after 3 months of coffee! Not good.

So no more coffee for me. Now it is water w/ice, cranberry juice, and the like. Cut out ALL caffinated and diet sweetened beverages too.

BP back to 100/65 where is has been for years. Resting rate now 68-72 where it has been for years. I do cardio ever other day and walk/run at least 3 miles/week.

Enjoy your coffee. I can't.

ps. I feed the cats (outside only).....don't have or want dogs!

[oldarkie]

popper when I worked for par electric we changed a lot of high line poles in and around the hawthorn plant but never got any good coffee there.

[koehlerrk]

Wake up, let the dogs out the back door (fenced in back yards are great) start my coffee pot (Dunkin Donuts regular blend, wife's favorite, and since she does the shopping, she gets to pick) fire up the computer, log onto CB, about then the dogs want back in and my cup is full. Then I sit down and enjoy my "quiet time."

[lightman]

I"m not retired, yet. I usually leave the house early and meet the retired guys and farmers at the coffee shop and solve the latest world problems before work! I'm on the coffee and the CB site early on the weekends unless hunting season is going on.

[cbrick]

It's not that coffee is important but it would certainly be the end of me if any blood ever got into my caffeine system.

OldArkie - I did estimating for Evans fo a while. Par was one of the good ones there. Some real silk suit snakes there too. We did a lot of Claycomo work too.

[oldarkie]
