Well, I figured out how to “cure” my slump.
I made my coffee a whole lot stronger this morning and drank more of it. I’m wired!
To keep up the caffeine high I’m on, I’ve decided to go grocery shopping after lunch (which is always a downer in Picayune) in Slidell, next big town down the road, and to stop and have an iced coffee at Starbucks afterward to drink on the 18 mile trip home.
I figure that will give me enough energy to unload all of the groceries, get them put away and to prepare Tom a good dinner. Being so slumpy lately and being on a diet, I haven’t been cooking too much. Poor Tom is beginning to waste away to nothing and I’ve got to keep him healthy. We have exciting things going on in our lives. (Another reason to get out of the slump, don’t you think?!)
Cheers!!! (I put in an extra exclamation point for good measure today and to reinforce my onward and upward state of mind. ha!) Many blessings to each of you today! Dee
Warning: This use of caffeine to cure slumps or slumpiness is not recommended or touted for those who are not willing to play the coffee game. If you don’t drink coffee . . . there’s NO other cure and you’re helpless (and hopeless, imho). Cheers to you non-coffee drinkers. You’re in trouble and need some cheering up!!!
whoohoo!!!!!!
nuthing like a coffee high
I guess I’ll just have to endure the doldrums because I HATE coffee. Ruins the taste of good water, IMHO.
I love my coffee!
So glad you are feeling better and hope you feel less ‘slumpy’ each day.
Coffee wouldn’t do it for me.
I’m glad you’re out of your slump.
Call me weird (plenty of others have), but a few years ago I told someone I didn’t need caffeine – I just liked coffee (which, by the way, makes tasteless, yucky water palatable). So, I decided to test that theory and started drinking decaf. After a serious withdrawal headache on the first day, I haven’t looked back.
The best part – I can put a big can of decaf (with chicory) in the lunch room at work, and even when I’m out of town for a week, NO ONE touches it. (Same thing with a jug of V8 juice.)
