Thankful for Starbucks!

I am so very thankfully, daily, to the happy, friendly baristas we have at our local Starbucks! We visit at least once every single day! Most often, twice. . .shhhhh. But part of our addiction are the fabulous people working there! We have become more than customers to them, we have dinner with some of them, shoot pictures of most of them, and absolutely enjoy them!

I think Soua was wishing I would hurry up and take my drink so she could get back in out of the snow. If there's a second thing I'm thankful for it's that my tall no whip mocha frappucino is just 200 calories and I can happily have one while dieting and still lose weight.

This is my first time participating in weekly gratitude but I'm thinking I can find something to be thankful for once a week. :0)

Things that don't seem to fit anywhere ~ so I threw them together.

I found these pieces of dollars in the pocket of a pair of my jeans - I dunno why they were there. At first I thought it was two pieces of one dollar - but check out the serial. . .

A note taped to the side of a building in Heritage Park, the item you can barely see on the ground next to the building are antique farm equipment.

'Please move your canons to somewhere they don't startle and frighten the elderly near here. . .'

We frequent our Starbucks so often. . .well, I think we help keep them open. lol. But we love our baristas and evidently they love us too. Heidi made this card for Dennis when he was having the heart issues, and several of them signed it. :)

See, there we are in our Newdae car and they're all squished in the window to chat with us. lol

Khris brought Dennis a colorful balloon for his birthday in August and I had to play with it - and the fisheye, although the fisheye is not so fishy when put on a cropped sensor.

Just try getting a shot of the sky from your street with a fisheye without getting some trees - it catches a 180 degree angle.

We've had some beautiful sky lately!
