Thank You Keurig, I Have Been Freed

Melinda and I have been married for a little over 8 years and for the last 7.5 years I have had to make her coffee.  Let me explain.
Now I don’t know if it was an act but Melinda would always ask me to make her coffee (meaning cream and sugar) because she said she didn’t know how to make it.  I can understand the brewing process and setting up the coffee pot and adding the beans etc but cream and sugar? How do you not know how to add cream and sugar? I don’t drink her coffee so what made me the resident expert on everything Melinda’s coffee? LOL. I love Melinda very much so I never really pushed the issue.
For the last 7.5 years with no questions asked I would just make her coffee.  So this morning Melinda came down stairs and we were sitting at the kitchen table and I asked did she want me to make her a cup of coffee and she said “NO”. What?  I was kind of in shock.  Melinda said now that we have a Keurig she can now make her own coffee. 
Today was kind of a sad day on many levels.  I have been making Melinda’s coffee for so long I now feel like I am no longer needed. 
So all I can say is Thank You Keurig. You have freed me for my coffee making duties.

Gratefully Yours,
