Gobsmacked Again

 

Today, Sept 7, 2022, Bob picked up the coffee pot to pour his 2nd cup and said:

"Did you stop making a full pot of coffee?'

"Yes, I went to 10 cups the last day of July, which was when I wrote the check to Red Dog for the new roof. I told you then I was doing it, I told you a few weeks later, we were saving a pot a week, that the container of coffee is lasting longer, which means a savings of 52 pots a year and how much money that is. I also said, I know longer pour coffee down the drain, that drinking less coffee is helping my stomach."

He replied, "Is that a yes?" 

"You are just like my mother, she could not say a simple answer, had to run on and on until she forgot what she was saying."

I am taking bets; he could not tell me one word of what I said 

and will not remember 

I said yes, I make less coffee. 

He has picked up that coffee pot 38 times since I cut back.

Why Today??? 

I decided to look for a coffee cup to put on this post, typing in the search bar the words coffee cup, I was totally Gobsmacked by the fact I have posted about coffee cups, since 

2009,

EIGHTY-ONE TIMES.

I found 14 labels for Coffee, 13 Labels for Coffee Mugs, 4 Labels for Coffee Pot.

that is 32 labels out of 81 posts. Which means I missed labels on more than half the posts.

This could be a good thing because I may have repeated myself a few times.

 

The first Coffee Cup post was in 2009.

I found posts that said almost the same things I said yesterday and last month and last year.

I also found that most of the coffee posts mentioned Memory Problems, including Microwaving an empty coffee cup, twice in one morning.

Which means I have been posting about memory problems for 13 years. 

I am now pondering if the memory problems started when I started Blogging but there is no way o find out because I can't remember, and there is no record.

In the old post about senior memory, 16 comments said they were suffering the same thing.

Last but not least I want to thank everyone who commented on my Missing coffee post

and the Missing flashlight post, which were the two posts before this one.

Brian, for Thankful Thursday, I am thankful for all of you who make me laugh and read my nonsense.

Your comments made me laugh and smile and read out loud to Bob.

Seems all of us are doing the same things and I feel so much better, 13 years later and I am still doing the same crazy things and so are YOU...
