Coffee vs Me

Coffee and I have a love/hate relationship right now. You see, I love the smell and taste of coffee. It wonderful to have on a nice summer afternoon/morning. It's excellent on a fall afternoon as well. I absolutely LOVE it!! The worst part, some may ask? Well, if I drink it after 3pm, then I can't sleep. If I can't sleep, my wonderful husband can't sleep and that's a problem. Especially because he gets very grouchy and who wants a grouchy husband? Certainly not I. Well, that is exactly what I did last night. I should have know better...but I couldn't help myself (or at least that is what I'm telling myself). The restaurant we were eating at was freezing. Plus I was mentally drain from my meeting earlier that day and I needed to stay awake for a bit more until we got home. That is when I order coffee (didn't even think to ask for decaf). So, this morning I'm feeling it...and what am I contemplation right now at 10:05 am? Should I brew some coffee to wake up??? AHHHH!!

Is it too early to think about Christmas??

May I ask you this question? Do you think it's too early to think about Christmas?
Personally, I saw no. Especially because as I walk into Walmart the other day, I saw that they had Halloween candy out. Now that is crazy. Halloween candy in AUGUST!! Now Christmas on the other hand.. I personally can listen to Christmas music all year round. And if it wasn't for my husband banned me from putting up Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving, I definitely would!!! (Can you see me with a piece of tinsel and my husband saying (like a police officer would in a hostage situation), "Ma'ma Please put the tinsel down and nobody gets hurt" and me waving the tinsel fervidly at him yelling...NOOO). Ok, maybe I was a little dramic here..but I figured you get the point.
