MORNING COFFEE RITUAL

First thing in the morning, I put the kettle on and go do my thing cleaning up in the bathroom. By the time I shave and brush my teeth, the kettle is boiling. I put some coffee in the French Press and pour in the boiling water and put the lid on but not press it down.

I check Facebook and Twitter, then by the time, ten minutes has lapsed and I press down the plunger on the coffee press and pour a cup.

I sit quietly looking out the window and sip away at the coffee. I do let it cool first, as my mouth cannot handle very hot drinks. Mom drank it right out of the pot and I have no idea how as I'd be in terrible pain.

This time before I fire up YouTube or watch some streaming service or get at my tasks for the day is a great way to wake up and gently start the day.

Coffee is a great pleasure to me and to be honest some people think there is decaf that is as good, but it's a lie. I've tried and it's always sucked very badly to drink decaf. The strange thing is, if I miss my morning coffee, I don't get a headache or become irritable like some people do. I just enjoy the hell out of the taste.

Getting a French Press was the best idea I've had in 20 years. The taste is so much better this way. The drip maker can't come even close to the taste of the press.

    I don't pollute any of my drinks including coffee. I like just the thing I'm drinking.

    The one woman I watch on YT does the same - half decaf and regular coffee in her stove top espresso maker.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
