EARLY MORNING GUESTS

Once upon a time, Grandma J had plans for a full day of shopping and lunch urgent appointments in Dallas. And once upon a time happens to be today. But wouldn't you know? An old friend calls last night and wants to come see me today. Of course we know the timing is all wrong because, well, you know.....Grandma J has stuff to do in Dallas.

So it breaks my heart in two when my day's schedule is so jammed packed that I have to tell special friend that I only have time to visit if they come for early morning breakfast.

OK, so it wasn't really breakfast.....more like coffee, a tad bit of juice and the morning paper.
OK, no juice.

I don't know about you, but it amazes me when some people are so chipper before the sun comes up....all laughing and joking. What's up with that?

And, it takes a lot of gall to bring some little smart ass twerp a juvenile hedge fund manager along. I mean....no, I don't want to convert my under mattress assets to a non-equity, non-interest bearing account.
