Would you like to come over for coffee?

Wednesday, November 30, 2005


We could drink a nice hot cup from one of my favourites. Which I bought at Pier 1 for next to nothing.

We would talk about nothing and everything. Things that matter and things that really don't.

We could watch the fishing boats glide in the bay. Zigzaging back and forth as they pull up their traps, hoping for gold. Silence would be o.k., not uncomfortable.

We could coo over the babe and marvel at the things he is doing. Laugh along with his deep delicious eyes and share experiences.

We would talk about Christmas and all the lovely preparations. Reminisce about our childhood and everything we used to do.

Climb into my big comfy couch and melt into its' cushions and talk about everything and nothing and eat warm cookies and fancy chocolates while brewing another hot cup.

The welcome mat is at the front door. All you have to do is call.

    YES. YES. YES. I want to come! What is your number, where do you live? Do I have to pack a bag? Oh man, where can I leave the kids? Can I just leave Honey a note on the table. LOL, LOL!!

    OK. I'm back, whew. What a warm and welcoming invite. Sounds like a fabulous way to spend the morning.

    coffee is all about bonding, no matter what the topic of conversation.

    Wish you were next door so you could just pop over without having to think about anything. No bags to pack, bring the kids, they'd play with our toys and no notes required. Wish you were here. Really, I do:)

    I wonder how many bonds have been built over cups of coffee?

  1. Blogger x said:

    oh yes! and i would bring my Christmas crafts magazine and we would make cards!

    what a nice dream Cathy! it's lovely even to think of it.

    by the way you have decorated the tree already! good girl!

  1. Blogger Cathy said:

    Chloe;
    You read my mind; what fun! I was thinking that I must get out and buy a couple of new Christmassy magazines. I'll let you know which ones I buy.

    It is a nice dream, isn't it; just think how much fun we would have.

    The tree is actually a small ceramic one; we won't put up the real thing for another few weeks.

    Gosh mee TOO. I really love to chat. To swing down memory lane, laugh, remedy all the worlds problems, discuss my own, list to others, make plans and dream about the future. *sigh*

    That is truly one of the quietest posts I've read in a long time. Very comforting.

    cathy -
    Would love to join you! I often feel like I am sitting down with a cup of coffee with friends when I'm sitting at my laptop at home and everyone is around in blogland. Today I am joining your for lunch. Veggie stir-fry is on the menu. :)

    I need that cup of coffee now. And we can bond over how frustrating studying for the medical boards is. My head hurts.

  1. Blogger Cathy said:

    A solution! As soon as I have my work e-mail operating again, I will send you an e-mail.

    Vani;
    they are supremely over-priced, but they do have good sales; I bought several mugs there in the summer for $3 each; and they are my favourites!
