I made a new friend last night. I get the feeling we’re going to be spending a fair amount of time together over the next few years.
After dropping Emily off at youth group last night I had a couple of hours to kill. I was already fairly close to where we’re going to live once we eventually move so I decided to drive past our new house before dropping in to the local cafe. It’s about a kilometre from the new house and I reckon I might be seeing a lot more of that cafe.
I ordered a long black and a melting moment biscuit then sat down with a book I need to read for a review on my radio programme. It felt like home, or at least a home away from home. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere relaxed, the decor warm, and the coffee was just right.
Things don’t always turn out as you plan but I can imagine that I’ll be back at that cafe very soon. I can imagine spending time there alone with a good book or three. I can imagine taking Pauline there for a bit of time out together. I can imagine taking Emily and James there for a treat now and then. I can imagine drinking coffee there with cycling friends that I haven’t even met yet. If you’re in the area you might drop in and have a coffee with me there too.
That cafe and me, I think we’re going to get along just fine.
Do you think some of your friends would enjoy reading We're going to get along fine? Please use the buttons below to share the post. Thanks.
We might need to know the name of the great little cafe if we are going to be able to catch you there.
Pray that the packing and moving and settleing in goes real well.
Would love to catch up with you one day.
Cheers
