Once a year I do this

Kamál (Perfection), 7 Qudrat (Power), 165 B.E. – Monday, November 10, 2008 about 5:27 AM Pacific Time

Once a year I get the coffee pot ready for my morning coffee. I put the paper filter in the basket, I close the basket, I then put the carafe under the basket, I put water in the tank and then I turn the coffee pot on. I go into another room to do whatever it is I'm doing while the coffee is brewing. I go back to get a cup of strong smooth coffee and am confronted with a carafe full of hot water. I forgot to put fresh grounds in the basket before turning the coffee maker on.

Doing this once a year is fine, but if I start doing it more then once a year I may have to start having a cup of coffee before making my coffee. I've heard of people who have to drink a cup of coffee in the morning before they are awake enough to make coffee. I think that's why instant coffee and Microwave ovens were invented. Once the those things were invented then we found other uses for them.

On my second attempt to make this morning's coffee I did make a pot of coffee. Now that I have managed to make a pot of coffee and drink one cup, I'm fine. Actually, I'm better this morning then normal. I didn't wake up with pain in my right knee. It's always nice to wake up without pain, not that pain doesn't work in waking me up. It's just that once in a while I like to get out of bed pain free once in a while. Waking up pain free could be why I wasn't awake enough to make coffee.
