My Dragonfly and Me

If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Mmmm..Sounds wonderful...both the coffee and the view!

[WayzataJOHNN]

“My goodness, a self grinding coffee bean, brewing pot, never heard of such a contraption!”

They range in price from $300 (too much !!!!) to around $40, Nancy and I bought a Black and Decker grind pot for $20 on sale just before Christmas (normally $40) It works very good, makes awesomely fresh coffee, and is a joy to make coffee in. Its even programmable, making a fresh pot to wake up to in the morning.

[Soaring Feather]

Well, $20.00 isn’t bad at all. I like the idea of grinding beans, nice smell. Then there’s the brewing smell which is just so great, especially as one looks out the window at fresh falling snow.

[WayzataJOHNN]

I got it at Walmart, and it has just as good a warrenty as the Cuisinart $300 pot!

The sound of the grinder is a nice wake up sound being in the kitchen far from the bedroom, and the smell of the newly ground beans and the brewing coffee levitate me right out of bed with ease! That first cup is just about the best wake up ever,

[Lady Jag]

It's just a little ribbon!

Don’t listen to SF. She’s an Ursa Major and tends to hibernate in winter.

I, on the other hand, just started wearing long pants and shoes for the season and switched the single cover sheet for a lightweight blanket.

And we’re one inch away from an all time snow record for December.

I’m so hot I’m cool.

[Soaring Feather]

LOL. Well you don't take blood thinner either!! ;0)

I do recall your mentioning grilling steaks in shorts and a t-shirt not so long ago.

[Soaring Feather]

Alas, I am a little tied up my self.

[WayzataJOHNN]

Grilling a steak, hummmmmmmmmmmmm, that sounds as good as that fresh coffee!

[Soaring Feather]

Yup!

MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WayzataJOHNN]

“Don’t listen to SF. She’s an Ursa Major and tends to hibernate in winter.”

Then what is a guy born in December? (12/03/1946)

[WayzataJOHNN]

Couldn’t think of a nicer person to have it.

[Lady Jag]

[MEG33]

LOL..I just put my summer clothes in the guest room the first of the month..but we had some really nice warm weather going for awhile..It’s 45 right now and my warmy socks feel good. I race to feed the birds early morning in my nightie but am now donning a jacket before venturing out.
Are you loving your snow!?

[MEG33]

Awwww

[Lady Jag]

Are you very Sagittarius and did you ever own your own business?

[Lady Jag]

Do you consider yourself very Sagittarius and have you ever run your own business?

[WayzataJOHNN]

Yes, Yes

[WayzataJOHNN]

Some think I must have been born under the auspices of Mars, considering the amount of combat I’ve managed to live through.

[Lady Jag]

You wouldn’t think that you’d be good in combat.

Though you prefer the good life, your Archer’s aspects like your sense of adventure, ability to trust your instincts, and desire to stay safe are a few of your traits that helped.
