Smiles in the morning

Tetsu came home in a bad mood last night. Annoyances at work. This morning on our walk he was fuming and ranting about the dumb things people do and how he has to light into people to get the job done right. And then he ends up the big bad wolf that nobody likes to work with (well, he just bit everyone's heads off).

Our weekday morning breakfast is granola and instant coffee. Because Tetsu was so grumpy I decorated his coffee a bit. That brought a smile to his face.

"It is amazing to me that I can't get along with anyone else but that you and I make a pretty good couple. These little things really make me feel loved."

Thank you. I try.

"...but the coffee tastes the same."

Next time I'll grind the coffee...
