Coffee Morning
Posted in: Uncategorized
I saw this sign on Russell’s blog and thought I should share. I agree with him. This sign could come in handy for many presentations.
Also, I’m sure there are a few words on the sign that explain the kind of week some of us are having. Blurred is a good word to explain mine. Myself and others will welcome a morning beverage and conversation this Friday. We’ll be at Mildred’s this week at our normal 7:30 start time. Hope to see you there. I’m sure we’ll have plenty to talk about.

The designs looked like some type of terrorist mummy or a POW broadcast on the news.
Only one word comes to mind. Dark… OK, maybe two. Dark and ouch…
