Monday Mischief

Once upon a time, about 8 weeks ago, my mom used to drink coffee.  When she was down to the last sip, I got to finish it off!! 

Then she decided to kick coffee and all other drinks to the curb and as she called it, she quit cold turkey.  She only drinks water now.  Water is not as fun as coffee.

The problem….I was forced to do this cold turkey thing as well.  Not a happy Chihuahua.

I love coffee.

Then a miracle happened…

She had a craving for coffee.   Goodie, if she has coffee then I have coffee.  She reverted back to our old habit and when she was down to the  sip, I got to finish it off!  The last sip  wasn’t good enough, I grabbed the cup and took off!!!

GRRRRR, get away from me Maggie, it’s mine, alllllll  mine!!

Yummmmy!  I licked the cup clean as a whistle!

My mom was full of energy and bugged eyed for the rest of the day and  I was content and happy.  She told me not to get used to it, that we were now back to water only.

Yep, you guessed it, mom takes the prize for this Monday Mischief!

    Look on the bright side... she has given in once so maybe she will again... and you will enjoy it so much more because it has become a treat... well try telling yourself that anyway, it might help!

    Maybe you could find someone else who would be willing to share their last sip with you Higgins? Us coffee addicts need to stick together. :)

    Wow, Torrey and I never get coffee. Mom and dad drink EVERY drop. Maybe I'll have to be sneaky and get some.

    Ha!Ha! You look hilarious with your head in that cup! I don't know how you can give up your coffee Higgins! Maybe you can have someone make a coffee run for you when your Momma isn't looking! I live for my morning coffee and hear your pain buddy. Your Momma is up to some mischief for sure!

    I didn't drink coffee, but I gave up on soda and I've only been drinking water since the start of this year. It was tough and I had headaches for a while, but now I'm doing great.

    Happy Monday!

    Ballahaahhhhh!! Nice this week seems likes it's all about addictions. We bet you'll be seeing coffee more often. Only cuz it sounds like mama broke down for some coffee. We love it when mama shares some of her soy chai lattes. Nom noms!! ~Weinerful Gang~

    Hey sweet Higgins! I sure know that love of coffee thing. Mommy got off coffee for a while and I missed it too. Now, she is back to her ole coffee ways, and I get a lil sip or two as well. Hugs to you, so glad you (and your Mom) got your 'fix'! (did you see my 'mug shot' of coffee last week, LOL? http://pixelblueeyes.blogspot.com/2012/05/pixel-blue-eye-has-her-first-mug-shot.html)
