If You and I Had Coffee


If you and I had coffee...

We'd order our drinks to-go. We'd go for a walk and enjoy the weather. I'd tell you how happy I am to be outside and enjoy the fresh air.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd ask how you are feeling. Things have been difficult. The U.S. and the rest of the world are going through a lot. So much sadness and anger are floating around. I'd tell you that I am limiting how much news I'm watching. I still get updates via social media, so at least I am still aware of what is going on. I had to stop myself from watching the news (even on social media), it just wasn't good for my soul and mind.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm wondering if schools are actually going to open for the new school year. I've already pre-ordered my kids' school supplies, but now I'm wondering if the school year is going to be delayed. Maybe distance learning is still going to happen when the new school year starts.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm so ready for summer. I'm so excited to go to the pool, and maybe we'll be able to go on a vacation (damn coronavirus...ruining my plans). I really want to visit the Marietta Square Farmer's Market and all of my favorite spots to visit during summer.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm taking several creative classes and I've been enjoying them. I'm finally starting to get over this creative block. I'm not stressing over the "due dates" of assignments. I'm focusing more on completing the classes when I have the time. I'm trying to work on the courses three days a week. I'd ask you if you are currently taking any classes? If so, which ones?

If you and I had coffee...

I'd ask you what you are looking forward to in the next few weeks? Do you have any plans for the summer? How do you usually feel when the seasons are in the process of changing?


What would you tell me?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...

  1. It is nice being able to get outside, especially with how on edge the news has been making me these days. I have mixed feelings about the new school term. I guess we won't know how it will actually work out until we get closer. Those classes sound like a lot of fun. I usually do a couple of open courses but have been taking a break from them until life seems a little more manageable. Emily, I'm so glad you were able to join the coffee date. Hope to see you again next time! <3
