Sometimes, you need something in your week to help you along. You need something to look forward to during the week when you’re mired in a Monday and can’t yet see Friday on the horizon.

I’ve started a new tradition. Thursday is when I stop off at Caliber Coffee Company and pick up a specialty coffee. One week, I ordered ahead the day before and got breakfast along with my sugary caffeinated beverage.

It’s not super spiritual or profound. It’s a small way to celebrate surviving the challenges of another work week. It means that I made it to Thursday, or as I like to call it, Friday Eve.

If you live or work near Donelson, I recommend Caliber Coffee Company, located off of Lebanon Pike just past McGavock Pike. It’s got a drive thru, or if you’re old school like me, you can go inside to pick up your order or even take advantage of their unique ambiance.

I definitely recommend having a weekly tradition to make those marathon work weeks a little more bearable. Because sometimes that office coffee isn’t going to cut it.
