You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

Extra shot, NOT extra HOT

3 February, 2005 /

Every morning I get my Sugar Free Vanilla Latte with an extra shot. Today she heard, “extra hot”.

I put it in the cup holder in the car and off we went. I tried to pick it up and even touching the side where the sippy sleave wasn’t was painful.

Me, being my mother’s daughter, grabbed the cup BY THE LID so I could pull it up a little to be able to grab the sippy sleeve.

The lid popped off. Hot, extra hot coffee, ALL over my hands. I cried all the way home. I was brave and went to work.

It smells like Juan Valdez farted in my car.

Starbucks needs adult sippy cups with screw on lids for an owie proof container.
