DON'T TRY THIS TRICK

            I am in the category known as very aged. So some of us have some common characteristics or you might say disabilities.. 

We have become very forgetful. We misplace things and can't find them. We don't know where we put things.. We do not interpret accurately. We get lost. So in general we have some disabilities.

          I know that I have some disabilities. The disabilities don't really bother me but they do bother other people. Some of these disabilities an cause serious problems.

          I make the breakfast around here. We each have a different breakfast. So I set the table. I'm not supposed to forget plates! Materials have to be made available. The Micro Manager  has cold cereal. I always have hot cereal. I make the coffee. So there are a number of steps that have to be done but it's not rocket science.

        How could anything go wrong? Well it did. Strange things can happen when you forget one thing.

        I forgot to set the coffee pot in the coffee maker. In fact ,  I didn't notice this omission for quite some time. I didn't notice it until the basket was overflowing. Then I noticed the coffee pot sitting on the counter.

       Well the coffee maker doesn't stop on a dime. So coffee  and coffee grounds began running out of the coffee maker on to the counter and floor . So in a few seconds you have a huge mess. Such a big mess that you feel like running away and hiding,

      So needless to say there was no coffee. Other things were also on hold.

      And I was  upset with myself and don't ask me about the micro manager's tantrum.

      So I would strongly suggest that you always put the coffee pot in the coffee  maker.  I'm warning you, don't try this trick.
