Wow, so many of you drink multiple cups a day! With cream and sugar?
I don't work out of the home, but when I did, I made a cup as I was getting ready, put it in a travel mug, have a few sips as I finish up, and take the cup with me in the car.
That said, here at home, I make the cup when I first get up. It's 11:45am and I still have about a 1/4 left. I've been known to take that cup with whatever is left and stick it in the fridge. mid afternoon, I'll take it out for a little bit of iced coffee.
but I'm like that with all beverages. A diet coke from Mcdonald's will take me half the day too.
i make the coffee and take a couple of sips, or somedays (nice days) have awhole cup before i leave. mason jar with a wrap. no cream no sugar, just the coffee.
I prepare my coffee at home...drink it, then go to my home office to work and make some more coffee mid morning to drink while I work. So do I make it at home and drink it before i go to work or do I make it at work?? HEHE
I make my own in the a.m. and drink 2 cups while getting ready for work. Then I take a cup *with* me to work in a travel mug. Once I'm there, I usually get 1 cup from the cafeteria and then 1 cup at some point either from the coffee shop or someone makes a pot and I have a cup from that.
So needless to say, on my work days, I tend to over-caffeinate.
I really look forward to my morning time. I get up very early and the first thing I do is start the percelator and then let the dog out.
I have not been able to bring myself to waste money on drive-through-coffee. We've never been in a position to even consider spending this kind of money and honestly even if we did, I'd still not buy it. (kind of a personal stand/belief) I do have to admit this: I once bought a starbucks just to see if it was worth the high (IMHO) sticker price. *lol* It wasn't.
At home, I have 2 cups with vanilla sugar free creamer while I have my morning time for devotional, study and prayer.
I was finally able to start integrating coffee back in after a loooong hiatus because of pregnancy and early breastfeeding. My daughter is now more developed and older, so while I'm still breastfeeding, I feel she and I can handle a 1/4 cup per day. Whoever is on dishes the night before is supposed to set up the coffee on the timer so it's there when I get up. I drink it w/ my breakfast w/ some milk but no sugar. That's about all the caffeine I ever have in a day, but I sooooo love my coffee!

I make my own coffee and drink at home.
Sometimes I will bring my own to work but usually not because I usually end up spilling it in the car.
At work, I drink more coffee that work provides even though it is disgusting.
Golden, add me to the club that drinks multiple cups.
I have noticed on weekends (when I do not work) I do NOT drink as much coffee as I do on a workday.
I buy my own and drink two cups at home before work. When I get to work I'm in the 'coffee club' and pay a monthly fee of $2 so I can drink more coffee there.
but I"m trying to cut down to 3 cups a day so I may quit the coffee club and just do 2 cups at home and take one with me in the travel mug. THen cut down to 2, then one.

We really don't get out much. Welcome to my world.
I'm not a coffee person really. I will have a cup of flavored decaf once in a great while in the evenings. Sawyer is a coffee junky, we have LOTS of coffee in the house. He's got a coffee club thing with green mountain coffee and gets boxes of coffee regularly in mail.
I'm an herbal tea girl and at work I keep a basket of assorted teas in my office. We have lots of tea and coffee in the kitchen though, I drink tea from the kitchen stash once in while.
