Candy Cane Coffe and Jingle Bell socks .....

I really have a fun life! These pictures were taken once upon a morning ... a documentation of my daily ritual as I bring my son to school for the fifth year in a row ... it is nice to have this time with him before we start our day~

I can assure you, that I in no way looked put together this morning! :)

Profile of my morning driving attire: Starting with my toes... (1) pair of hand knit, red and white striped socks with a green fuzzy tassle AND BELL at the ankle. (2)Baby Blue Pj's bottoms with yellow rubber ducks, white bubbles with a v neck t-shirt to boot! COAT: NOT my italian red leather one you see in the picture's...rather my full length sweater coat that goes from the very top of my feet on up and has "knit" buttons (people love this coat)!
Profile of my journey to school and back: My son and I have some baisc life instruction RE: how to defrost the rear window (again) as he starts the car every morning. After I drop my boy off, I head back home and decide I better get a cup of coffe as I have a meeting this morning and then I have to work ... I'm busy. I see my local gas station friends have a bare parking lot !! SWEET! I fold over the bells on my candy cane, hand knit socks as to not alarm anyone in the store.....as I enter my friends greet me with smiles. The woman cashiering knows me and I giggle and tell I'm in my pj's doing a 007 run for coffee ..... and the next thing you know .... she offers me the rest of their candy cane coffee from the holidays! Five sealed bags of candy cane coffee!! I never make coffee at home, but I know a few who do. One of my favorite ways to drink coffe is with a mint (I rarely do this) but this coffe fits the bill as far as liking! As I get finished paying for my piece of fruit and cup of coffee, I confess the fact the I have socks with bells on them and that I flipped over the top as to ,,,,and the attendant finished my sentance___"so no one could hear!!" We laughed ... then she said "TELL NO ONE.. I wont tell anyone" .. and we both giggled again and called the situation WAY too funny!

This could leave one to wonder what it would be like to be in my shoes for one day.
I have a beautiful mind and I'm thankful!
P.S. My grandma knit those candy cane socks ... life is fun, now I have a story to tell her!
