Time While reading/commenting on another blog post from yesterday I remembered something I've wanted to discuss to see if it's just me or if I am correct in my summations... Time flies...or does it?  When we were didn't we always look forward to our birthday... Christmas.... HALLOWEEN  (Halloween, BTW, is my favorite holiday because there's nothing like the look on a little face when they bite into a caramel covered onion  ) the Fourth of July!!! etc. etc. etc.I can vividly remember how anxious we'd get upon the approach of Halloween... all the scary stuff, all the candy, decorations etc. THEN we'd look forward to Thanksgiving and all relative involvement (meaning family members as well as things coinciding with the Thanksgiving holiday) including the 4 day weekend  As the Thanksgiving holiday got closer there would be some talk of Christmas and after turkey day THEN we'd get all into Christmas and it would always seem like FOREVER 'til Christmas morning, right? Then right after Christmas comes NYE!!!!  But as we get older doesn't it seem like things come and go much quicker than when we were ? Sometimes the anxiety isn't for the holiday itself but for the damn nonsense that goes with it to be over  The hassles of it all  Then we get to a point where we probably have said at least once..."Didn't we JUST DO that??" Or maybe... "What, THIS again??"After contemplating all this one time many years ago I came to the conclusion the more we go through time the quicker it comes and goes. Why? Because we've done it all over and over and over and over and over and over and over  The novelty of things we experience from our childhood wears off and there isn't as much excitement for things compared to our childhood years.We have been there and done that many many times previously, we know what to expect and we know how things are going to unfold based on the many times you have already gone through it. Not a pleasant thought, I know. The excitement disappears as the hassles and frustrations take over. I call it the BFD syndrome  Everyone is on a different plane of intelligence. Some people's plane has not taken off yet!!  |

my holiday cheers ended kinda early for me so I pay them no mind now and have been like that for a couple of decades now. It is cool tho that I have a grandson so I can live vicariously through him if I so choose. Please, just call me diggy.

I still love Christmas, even more so if both of my kids can spend it with me. I buy early so don't have to go to the shops for at least two weeks before. I start buying gifts straight after Christmas so I've got a head start, never have enough money leading up to it. For many years now, I buy both boy and girls toys to leave at the shops listed that give them to charities. I'm always struggling to make ends meet, but I can't help thinking of those that have even less than me, another reason for knitting beanies for the homeless.

I like Callmex's idea - revive your rock band  Or at least rescue your drum set from the confines of storage. Let your soul live. My theory on "time going faster"... it's all work work work and no summer vacations. Too many chores and bills and all that, so you can't just ENJOY. I'm trying to work on that... get my apartment to "self managing" mode and then get outdoors EVERY single chance I get. Hiking in the mountains, riding my bike, picnic in the park. Sit on a bench drumming... heck, I'll toss a hat out, maybe I'll get rich haha.

 Aww! That's sweet I was listening online to basic belly dancing rhythms... I've decided there's no WAY (at least not in a week). But ... I can make lots of noise in a semblance of rhythm all of my own making and have fun. The belly dancers that will be out this weekend have been doing it far more years than I've been drumming - they can improvise haha.

I think Kitten's on to something. We get busy and don't have time to let our imaginations work the way we do when we're kids. Time does fly when you're busy and don't have much of it. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.
