A Hope Moment

I think my schedule might be getting to me!

I taught ESL this morning.  Classes are going well.  I'm averaging six students a class and I think I have  incredible students.  They are so eager to learn.  This afternoon I worked at the fitness club until closing, which is at 9 p.m.  I then drove home, with a headache but with an excitement for the fact that I'm getting into a groove at that job as well now.

After arriving home, I started chatting with Martha as I got myself a late dinner (mint chocolate chip ice cream...I don't do this often!) and started to get my coffeepot ready for tomorrow morning.  I put in a filter, filled it with water, and put coffee into the filter.  I kept chatting with Martha as I got out the ice cream and dipped two bowls for us.  All of a sudden Martha asked, "Are you making coffee now?"

Completely on autopilot, I had also turned on the coffee pot and I hadn't even noticed that it was percolating while I was dipping the ice cream!
