And then… He rose to give YOU new life! Happy Easter! He did this to bring you hope and peace. May today be a reminder of what his resurrection means that YOU are loved, worthy and deserving of a life full of peace and hope with the promises He fulfilled.

Happy New Year! His plan is always the best despite us not always understanding or agreeing. This year He brought me a wonderful man, maturing sons, deepened my faith and showed me that despite many obstacles He would make Christmas happen for many. He also allowed my business to move knowing that it would close, even when I had no idea. He showed me that even when there are challenges, mountains and dead ends, He has gear and maps for us.

May I ask please for prayers for the Santo family and finding their son Brendan, for Jim Madigan healing prayers and peace for wife Laurie, and for peace in our country? Thank you! May 2022 bring you peace, hope and joy.

Updating on charity work this season. This year threw me for a loop with many changes.

Yet as always, God had a plan. I came to Him and He knew I was a bit out of sorts, needing to help Lee and not sure what to do. He knew people would come asking for help, some organizations who knew I always helped and others out of the blue.

Thanks to Lynn Karnes for her connection to Sterling Insurance Group for helping several children of Veterans from the VA. Huge thanks to Jenni Lawrence who is always so generous even when I hadn’t asked for help. Thanks to Beth Stipek for her donation. Also for everyone who has supported me, the shop and the charitable work I’ve done.

This year in addition to the Veteran’s children we helped:

We assisted a single mother with a major car repair
We assisted a family with funds for a vehicle
We helped secure shelter for a single mother with 4 children who was homeless and living in a cold not insulated garage
We assisted World Medical Relief with new necessary items
We assisted a single mom with 3 special needs children and the mother is disabled
We assisted a special needs adult
We assisted several servers in need
We assisted a college student with no transportation with an older used vehicle/tires
We blessed several families with gifts cards (while shopping and learning of their need)

It wasn’t the same and missed my side kicks Theresa Walker and Mandy Ott but thankful to be able to help.

Thanking God for the gifts He gives and blesses me to bless others with.

Merry Christmas and may you realize there is no greater gift than His love!
I miss and pray for you all daily. Despite family health issues and many changes to how my life was before, I am blessed with the hope and peace only He can bring.

Happy Thanksgiving! I spent yesterday cooking, being thankful and enjoying a continued much reduced social media presence over the past month.

I’ve felt and appreciated your thoughts and prayers. Many of you have reached out to me in messages and texts as well and it means so much.

Lee’s surgery post op appt was this week with the neurosurgeon and he is now cleared to drive. We are thankful for the fact they stopped the problem from getting worse, but digesting that they were unable to regain the lost functionality and the still extremely limited lifting and exercising with his dominant arm/hand he is under. OT begins soon.

My Mom has been doing better and seeing success with the meds they have put her on. We are thankful that she is not getting worse according to the neurologist and he is hopeful that at the very least the progression of memory loss has dramatically slowed.

I had a scare with an unexpected emergency room visit last week. I have never experienced pain like that before and tore a tendon in my arm. (I thought it was my rotator cuff.) I am managing the pain and healing.

I also have begun working a temporary position in an office. It is great to be around others and use my brain again. I’m working with some kind people and it’s a close drive.

Thanks to all of you who have been praying for all of us including Lee’s Dad with his CKRD-Kidney disease. The good news is he’s not getting worse and the diet changes he’s making are helping. We still need to meet with a rheumatologist. We also located a car for his sister with a disability.

Yesterday as I was with my sons, Lee and his family I thanked God for health, that God has allowed me to share so much with others, and that I am reminded of all the people who are blessings to me like you.

Thank you for blessing my life.

I miss you all. I miss my old little shop. I miss the conversations and the humanity of people I know exists. I miss the hugs and tears and serving you the best coffee. I hope I’m not the first person to tell you what’s written below, but if I am please know it’s my whole heart bursting with this truth. You are loved by me and Him and we have to remember all we have is eachother. Keep being the good, spreading the kindness and sharing your smile. The World needs it!

This is what I have been doing and taking care of others I love. I’m still “temporarily closed” as He leads my next steps and moves me forward.

For many reasons near to my heart, it just isn’t in the cards for me to have my own place in or out of my own space. It is apparent that God is working and His timing could not have been more perfect of when this had to happen. This time off and helping Lee (he still can’t drive) and being humbled by many issues hitting us all at once told me having a business isn’t an option now. I’m still helping him and now other family who need me. I am looking for a position, but it has to be flexible for all who need me and travel to Texas. (Not interested in delivery using my car). I may land serving coffee somewhere or I may work out of my home. I’m blessed by Him that I have skills, education and know a ton of good people. I also live very simply and don’t need much (thanks Dave Ramsey). If you know of something perfect for me, I’d appreciate the heads up.

I’m sad as I am human and miss your faces, smiles and talks, but I know the requirements of owning a business is too much for me now with all the important people who need me. Who knows what the future holds, but I do know Who holds my future.

Finally there has been discussion about hot cocoa bombs. Many of you expressed an interest in them again. I would consider selling them but they would require preorder only and have 1-2 order pick up dates at possibly different friend’s businesses. If you are interested, please type HCB in comments.

I appreciate all your love, support and prayers more than you’ll ever know.

I know it’s over a week since I posted. Life has turned upside down during that time and right now my focus is taking care of the ones I love of which several are experiencing health issues. I very much miss seeing your faces and serving you coffee. I do hope you know you’re missed and loved and that each time I drink my own coffee I hope you’re enjoying a wonderful cup too. I’ll be in touch more soon as I navigate the future. Thank you for my love and support. God is good and in control.

Getting the patient out of the house. Thank you so much for prayers for Lee. He had a challenging managing his pain and the exhaustion, but he’s doing better and getting his strength back. We took a nice walk yesterday and running an errand today. One day at a time and he is so appreciative of your prayers. Love local coffee shops. Great coffee and a chocolate banana espresso shake which was amazing! Try it out the next time your in Warren! Thanking God for the time to help Lee.
