Celebes and the Flying Monkey

without comments

Today was just one of those days. My feet were cold; it looked dreary outside; and I just didn’t want to roll out of bed, but I did. Then I sat down at my desk to look at the list of “to do’s” and groaned. This list had grown way out of proportion and appears to have become the “put off until tomorrow” list. I stood up, stumbled over the dog at my feet, and wandered into the kitchen.
What to my wandering nose did appear but the smell of freshly roasted coffee brewing in my barista. Tim had put on the coffee before he closed himself in the office to take part in a three way conference call. I was so appreciateive that I tiptoed into the office with the first cup of coffee I poured. I am sitting down at my desk with a hot cup of Celebes from Civilization. Suddenly, my “put off until tomorrow” list again looks like a “to do” list that will not be there when we take off to the Flying Monkey for the Urban Repair Project brought to us by our friend, Frank Mills. If you are looking for something to do on a snowy day in Cleveland, this project might be the thing for you. Frank’s gatherings are always great fun and we accomplish things, too.
