DAY ONE MAY 23, 2012

After waking, the brush scrapped back the messy hair and the coffee water was turned on.   Then the washroom was the third thing on the list of usual morning rituals.  Washing for the day and talking care of other things before dress-up.

The dead stale air in the house prompt the opening of the window only to find the outside breeze is beautiful, all the windows get opened, then coffee and a sitting,  out,  on the front steps, in this beautiful early morning day is calling at me.  So i do . . .i sit out in the quite morning,  enjoying my awakened state, but not for long . . .two riding lawnmowers show up to cut the tall grass. Of course now i am forced back inside as the machines are blowing the shredded grass at me and all the surroundings.  And now,  who do you think,  has to clean that up . . .I myself am thinking,  a short wind storm, then again,  that could be dangerous.

Inside the house is still warm,  but at least i get to sit and have my coffee.  So i opened my e-mail to see if anyone dropped me a line or two.  There was.  One message to answer. Yippee a good one. Not spam or junk. This was an e-mail from someone i Loved and probably still do.  Strange . . .I replied but then deleted it. I felt how i replied they would not like it. So it is put off until i feel i have a good response.

Then the grand baby came. Crying. Oh happy day now . . .Everything is put off. This child gets into everything. But i Love the child. So it is now play off and on time, while it tries to figure what it really wants to do . . .At two years of age. really.

It was not long before one of  the guys were back to cut the back grass. He lives here so, yeah . . .Way to start a day, noisy and messy. Good-morning to you too. It is the Queen Victoria’s Birthday should it be less noisy and fun.

Day one of many more to come.

Well hello once again . . .You in the mirror. The look of Mr. Jeff Bridges.  Awe  today i greet thee with the quirky-est of smiles..  Yes for seconds i gaze into the eyes and see the face of Jeff Bridges. But why?  Why Jeff Bridges,  of all people in the world,  i have to look like him?  READERS BEWARE . . .

Tell you what though . . .I don’t care any more i will accept  it,  play with it,  hope the best comes out of me while in it.  Why not.  Picture  i  come into money of it,  i’d be more happy of it.   But right now i scratch my head, look around and see i have some cleaning up to do.  Before i get to do what i want to do. I will dress like a cleaner and act the part for a while then hope i made a good effort in the cleaning process or i wasted my time and yours . . .[YES I AM TAKING YOU ALONG WITH ME ], why go it alone?

WELCOME JEFF BRIDGES WHO EVER YOU ARE

OKAY,  the dishes are out-of-the-way . . .Table still looks like

the table

There is a table under this mess

ASSmasstost-ing. or something there like that.   So in cleaning of the stove and cupboard,  i have room to do my first chore . . .AND IT IS HARD FOR ME.

I told you before what i am,   and i am  me THETALER,  i don’t know things and i don’t find out about them until i need to know.    Odd . . .I know,  how silly that sounds to you too and me too.    But what do i care.  It  is none of  my business how you feel  nor you mine,   something there like that too.. Funny  i think so. 

Back to this coffee maker i bought . . .The instructions all so far appear to be in a different language.  dictionary is no help, [it is english].  Finally i find what i need.

coffee maker

I made a clean spot for this coffee maker

I found a USER MANUAL,  in the bottom,  of the box, and on page 9,  it tells us how to wash the coffee pot out before using.   then to  replace the part you took off to wash,  but there only seems to be,  one PART,  that comes off,  and it does not come off,  it lifts out,  of a basket part, as it too is a smaller basket.   It get washed and  replaced.

Then the instructions stop!   Well how does anything else get washed? Clearly i see three, vessels in this machine, and all  three get used, how do they  get washed? 

inside cleaning

How do i clean in there?

 Frig man,

  • do i put water in it and swoosh  it around?
  • do i take some sort of long stick with a rag on the end of it and swish that around?
  • do i call in help?

I called in help.  I made it that simple for myself  . . .Something simple for you,  is hard for someone else,  and it works,  the same way for me.   I can tell you things but i can not do certain things, like follow instructions.  Get it?  Hundreds of people like me. OUR BRAINS are for other things.  SO feeling like looking like Jeff . . .I will say.

Instructions should be made BY LAW enforcement.  ALL INSTRUCTIONS for any product for sale by any vender must provide three categories of instructions, as follows.

What does it say

Wow Dictionary is no help

  1. HEAD OF THE CLASS
  2. DUMMIES
  3. IDIOTS

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or the product can not be sold on market anywhere forth right and forth with and forth on . . .  PICTURE THIS . . .

no where printed

Where does it say to get coffee, push the select button for strength of coffee to start.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

520029577 boxes of new coffee maker  parts, finally arrived to this remote place, [way out somewhere] . They waited for this contract for three months, praying for their bid to go thorough, and it did.  The whole town cried out thanks for this magnificent blessing.  

The towns factory reopened and layoff were called back to work and work they did . . . Pieces were placed on conveyor belts and workers would select proper part pieces, putting together,  each a new coffee-making machine. 

 People had dreams again, stores were up and running again,  money was being made by the whole town again. Life was happy. 

Then the day came when the first shipment became ready for the other end of the work plant.  This was, called, { shipping and handling}, where they would do the final steps like.

  •  Make sure all the parts were there and complete.
  • Make sure wires were checked and secure and everything is properly bagged. 
  • Make sure all the instructions were together.
  • Make sure it was loads onto big trucks safely.

Transport trucks . . .[ JOBS  YES ]. Everyone is earning a happy living again. The town will flourish in wealth,  until i,  buy,  one of these coffee machines.  Then go through all the steps up top,  then come to a stop,  because it did not tell me,  at any point,  in order for me to make the coffee,  after,  the parts, [ only one],  were cleaned. AND THE COFFEE  IN THE BASKET.   EVERYTHING READY TO GO . . .BREW  NOW . . .  DID NOT WORK.

Not Until i selected a brew strength?

 What?  Why? 

Why would instructions tell you to use 5 & 1/2 tablespoons,  of coffee grinds,  to make 10,   cups of  coffee, then tell you to pick a strength?

And if that is not confusing,  to you,  it is none of my business . . .But it sure as hell is confusing to me?   As the matter of fact it makes no sense to me . . .

HAD THE Company not, of  forgot,  to follow the marketing rules,  of,  making sure,  all three sets of instructions, { Head of the class, dummies and idiots}, were in the boxes like stated by law, none of this would have happened.

So the little company was closed down, and a settlement of 50,000 dollars was paid out for headaches and all,   and,  i went back to making instant coffee.  

 So after all of that . . .I changed my cloths,  from cleaner,  to  putting on business cloths . . .

I’m going to play boss and make everyone up-set because this place is a mess and it looks like a place you would never see or witness Jeff Bridges. Welcome mr. jeff bridges you make me feel i can do anything when i feel like you. Acting my way through life too. , and thinking . . .

Damn . . .There is so much i still don’t know . . .Like what was wrong with putting in instructions that read . . .

[ BEFORE YOU PRESS BREW NOW, press strength button ].     Why?  That could have been figured out later.  But for the moment, you want your coffee and the why question will be under the category of,

 { who cares, press the button if you want your coffee}, category.   Simple things like that should not be forgotten . . .

I took a picture showing the [  BREWING COFFEE NOW ],  page, you will see for yourself it tells us not, that you HAVE TO PRESS [ brew strength ] to get coffee.

There you have it . . .I ended up making two pots of coffee.

  1. The  first pot taste like crap, {if you ask me }.
  2. The second pot is very strong. 

Maybe the third pot of coffee, will be just right,  as i will select, [ medium strength ].  But not now.  So you will never know.   But for now . . .

I enjoyed all that i went through today.

  •  by seeing,  Jeff Bridges, and
  • cleaning the kitchen just to get a clean spot,
  •  to have  a simple cup of coffee,  produced by a machine.

 The dishes are done, the cleaning is done, the coffee is done and i am done.  And you were blogged,  all at the same time.  What did you learn?

the helper

Even calling in some help did me no good i had to recall the helper to start the brewing.

Hopefully that there are some things some people can not do like you.  After all, we are just people still trying to adjust,  to the ways of life,  everyone one else,  tells us how to live.

P. S. . . .Nobody received any money the story is not real. I am not real.
