This evening we had to go out to my parents' chicken farm to vaccinate 11,000 chickens.  It was -20 degrees outside, the barn door was open and the heaters were off.  I stood at a fence inside the barn with a double needle in my hand and injected every bird that was brought my way during the 3 and a half hour job.  I don't usually mind vaccinating night.  The work is not hard and we generally have a good time with everyone.  But tonight my teeth were chattering and morale was getting a little low.  Then my brother, knowing I was awfully cold, brought me a mug of coffee.  I tell you, I think that was the BEST coffee I have ever had!  It was just a home brewed coffee put in an old tim hortons travel mug, but WOW!  It made me feel SO...MUCH...BETTER!!!  I just stood there while I was needling chickens, sipping my hot coffee.  Kuddos to my brother!  I think I thanked him that at least 10 times.  This is a time when a coffee means the world to a person.
