Monday Morning Coffee Chat

United States
December 22, 2025 9:28am CST
Happy Monday Everyone! it's a sunny morning with temperatures just above freezing. There's a chance of some sort of snowy mix overnight but looks like it won't amount to anything. (fingers crossed) I'm sitting here with my coffee trying to relax a little before tackling the day As we get closer and closer to Christmas I'm trying my best to keep things organized and not be stuck with last minute chaos. I'm very disappointed that one gift I ordered that was guaranteed to arrive before Christmas still hasn't shipped and now says it will arrive on the 27th. I'm very tempted to cancel the order but then that would mean I would have to find something to replace it and I really don't have the mindset nor the time for that. I don't know how much time I'll have to be here the next few days but I certainly do want to thank everyone here for their friendship. I don't know how I would spend my morning coffee time without myLotters.

I'm sorry the gift won't arrive until the 27th. I'm thankful for everyone here too. The people here are the best.

I always look for you in the mornings (but sometimes I fall asleep before you get here). Any time you get to spend here to visit with us is time well spent, in my opinion, of course. It has become a sunny day with temps heading for 60F.

I know I, and so many others look forward to talking to you, Marilyn. I’m sure you’ve got a lot going on, and I hope it won’t stress you out too much. But what a bummer that that gift won’t arrive when it said they would.

I'm so sorry your gift will be late. I hate when that happens. I don't know what I would do if MyLot ever tanked. I have so many good friends here.

I wish you could cancel that order. It makes me so mad when they tell you things that aren't true to get you to buy and spend that almighty $$. Ugh! I don't think I want to think about a time without Mylot. It helps me have something to get up for. I've enjoyed my friendships here too. I hope you have some nice holidays and that the new year looks positive ahead for you.

That stinks that the “guaranteed to arrive” gift won’t. Can’t blame the weather right now! (I used to work holiday trucking check-ins at UPS, and it was very common for drivers to call in and report that they were stuck in a truck stop in North Dakota or Colorado because of snow storms.) Hope you’re having a good day anyway!

I wish you and your dear family a healthy and happy Christmas season. I think of you every morning when I have my morning coffee break at work. Merry Christmas Coffee Buddy!

I have it best; I just decided to remember the reason for the season and make this just a regular week,

That's a shame about your gift. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with the family but, whatever you do, don't forget to come back.

Oh you have to get out of your house to buy the gift from local shops then! I hate offline shopping...especially in the winter
