RE: Facts From Our Little Coffee Shop

in Market Fridaylast year

I am so glad you like the comments. It is fun to engage with you as you appear interested in what I am saying. It feels like I am having a conversation that we have been carrying on for years! :) Gosh, I met you so long ago, Dan. Long ago in social media years.

I have never been good at lengthy posts, mine are shorter and less personal most times. I cannot tell you why except that I don't have exciting things to write about. Most times. People don't want to hear if I go on an exotic vacation, and why would they? Most don't want to see something that may be out of their price range. Can I blame them? Sometimes it is fun, but, I want everyone to feel comfortable, so I try to keep it more generic. Most times. Sometimes, I just go ahead and write something different.

Have they given you medication for this? Beta Blocker or channel blocker? Although it is a long-term condition, he probably gave you guidelines on how to manage it. This will help you to continue a long and active life. There are things that you can do that will help you manage your condition, lower your risk of stroke and relieve any of your worries.

This is where I'm confused too. First of all, I ask myself from the very beginning why would anyone be interested in my life, ours. On the other hand, everything I read here refers to what the author has done before. Almost all of us write the same... unfortunately, I can't really write generalities but I'm ashamed to write about myself as if I'm praising myself. I don't want that but when I see comments from which I understand that even my modest lifestyle and level of possibilities is not accessible to some people, I am ashamed...

You've seen it too, I love to tell stories about my favorite coffee shop and coffee. It's a pleasure of ours and not exactly cheap. For what I pay for two cappuccinos at the cafe I could drink 60 Nesspreso-compatible coffees at home, but I love going to the cafe. Someone commented that a cappuccino seems to be very good, that there are many coffee shops where she lives but she has never had a cappuccino because it is too expensive..., and I was ashamed that I wrote so much about my coffee... I would have liked to write about someone else, not me, but I don't know how to do that.

About long and short posts! I write long posts not because I have a lot to say, I go on and on with all sorts of flourishes and superfluous stuff. Lots of work that nobody cares about. I try to look for as minimal a format as possible, after all, my last post (on Market Friday) produced a $6 payout for almost 1800 words, I say that because I keep trying to find a match between value, size, effort, and reward. I can't find it! Then, logically, I have to find the formula where I put less effort and time because the rewards will be almost the same...

I mention rewards because they are important to me. I think for most people here. I think of accumulating this money as a reserve fund, for special needs... I've actually used some of the money and it's come in very handy. That's what I've wanted to ask your opinion about for a long time. I don't have time to go into it now, but maybe another time.

As for heart medication, I have a blood anticoagulant (for the rest of my life), a blood pressure medication, and a cholesterol medication.
