My COFFEE time...what a dilemma.....

I love my coffee - and of course I have been told to only drink decaffeinated but - that is not happening. The taste is so drastically different, and I have tried many times, I cannot even fathom making the switch.

My coffee of choice is Dunkin Donuts brand. Mmmm... delicious. the Hazelnut and original blend would be my ultimate favorites of the moment. The downside to my coffee craving is the fukking price. The Dunkin Donut brand has been available at the local Kroger and Walmart for a little over a year now, and a 12 oz. package is $8.99. This will yield me approximately 40 cups of coffee. (Not in one day, by the way.)

In order to stretch the bucks, I alternate between the delicious DD brand and my second favorite, Maxwell House. This square, hard to store container, holds 2 lb 2.5 oz of grounds, and of course offers many more cups to my delight.

Since a 40 cup package will not last all that long, I start to get slightly depressed knowing I have reached the bottom of the bag. I guess this would imply that I desperately do need a life.

I have found a site online where the price is $7.99, but using common sense, I would imagine once a shipping fee is attached, this would not be a beneficial route to go.

This morning started out rather well...I guess. One client called, and said he received more taxable information in the mail. Oh goody...another return to re-do.

I have made it a point to emphasize to my clients that the IRS extended the date to receive all info, but most are just anxious to file and get their money back, without thinking.

I told this client to give me the pertinent info over the phone, I would re-calculate and reprint the new return - then give him a call when to pick it all up. So, I decided I would tend to that this afternoon, and proceeded to jump in the shower, wash hair and all important body parts, before "starting" my day. Ah, the best laid plans of mice and men....as soon as I got out of the shower, looking a delightful mess, the client shows up at the door. Jeebus - give me a break. What part of "I will give you a call" did he miss???

So there...my day is off to a beautiful start and you now know of my love for DD coffee. What more could a person desire?

BTW, any readers here who live in Ohio - did you know that you can get a discount card for prescriptions by going here? It does not matter if you have other prescription coverage or not - I do know it helped me afford a costly drug after my recent hospital trip. The only information required is your name and an email address. Check it out, this is a state sponsored program. And it's FREE. My kinda deal.

Have to get back to some REAL work now. Have a great President's Day. Later.......
