The call of Plato’s was too great, Kelli had more clothing she needed to sell, so I was able to spend time at Starbucks waiting for her.
However the place I usually use was closed for renovation, so as an alternative I had to go to Target where they had a Starbucks inside.
Unfortunately the espresso machine wasn’t working leaving only the filter machine working. That severely limited my choice, however with a slice of walnut and pecan cake I made it work.
As I enjoyed my snack I watched as an old guy was attempting to repair the broken coffee maker. He seemed old to be doing this work, not that age was the issue, he looked like he should be sitting with his feet up enjoying his retirement.
He was brushing, and cleaning out the machine occasionally stopping to think of what else he needed to check.
Eventually, and by now I was down to the dregs, the old guy was ready to reassemble the grinder and test. The manager patiently waited for the sound of success. Just then Kelli messaged to say she was on her way to pick me up, and I would never know if it worked, fortunately I did hear the sound of something working, so the old guy rocked!
Another Lifetime to go
