My alarm clock went off at 4:30 am on Thursday morning. Sleep in, or coffee? Coffee, duh! I snuck out of bed because I didn't want to wake the pups up. I had prepared the coffee pot before I went to sleep, so all I had to do was hit the start button. While the coffee was brewing, I turned on the news and got ready for the day.
