Is it just me or does time travel faster as you get older?!
Is it really July?! That means Christmas will be here in just 6 months and winter in about 3 1/2 months away. 2011 is half over and then we will do it all over again. Sorry, just stating the facts.
I remember as child thinking I had time on my side. I never thought I would make it to 12 years of age. Then came 16 and then 21. As a kid, 21 seemed ages away. I really couldn't even fathom high school. Big people did that. I always remember wishing Christmas and my birthday would come faster and the summer would last longer. The clock seemed like it would stop, while all I did was wait. Waiting to get older and speed things up.
I am now 34 and I can't seem to slow time down. My kids are growing up in front of me! My days seem to fly past and there is really nothing that I can do with it. I only seem to have about 7 minutes a day to myself and I feel like a lot of times, I am just running around with my head cut off and saying, if only I had 'more time.' More time to go on vacation, play with my kids, laugh and go on date nights with B, clean the house, go out with friends... I could keep going, but you get the idea. I want life to slow down just a bit.
Does anyone have an answer for this?! Mother nature is just not slowing down, so I have to figure out a way to keep up with her!
