MzMia -> 2 weeks until the 4th of July! Where is the time going??? (6/20/2007 9:55:44 PM)

I like to stir the pot a lot with people.
I mentioned to several people today that there is exactly 2 weeks until the
4th of July.
Many appeared to be so surprised, several stated that it will be soon be time
to start Christmas shopping.
This year is almost half over.  Where the hell is the time going?
Anyone else amazed and wondering why time is going by so damn fast?
Do you care?

Boy-o-boy I was thinking the same thing while driving back from the gym a few hrs ago. Man...It’s already the twentieth day of June and it's not even hot enough to swim in the rivers here without a wet suit.  You're correct...time is flyn'

Well, here it has been near 90 just about every day, so it is
hot enough to get in the pools.
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?

Nah.... I'm one of those seventy-two hour guys:  Unless it's someone very special....their gift{s} is purchased in last few days. As for you.....well, I've been eyeing something very special at Wal-Mart lately  ; }

You are not getting older--you are getting better and becomming wiser and smarter! [:D]

July 4th, then 777!  (7/7/007).  Probably a party or two.

In any case, my personal plans include studying, classes, and other such fun things.  Goooo summer school!

Yes, and it's freaking me the heck out!  I realized that my unmentionable turned ten months old yesterday, and I sat down and had a moment involving utter amazement, wonder, and thanksgiving.  He can't be that old yet!  He started walking at 8 1/2 months, and now he's running, for goodness sake!  Where the heck have the past couple years gone, besides zipping by so quickly you can hardly see them?

you think about fun, fun, fun year round I suspect[;)]
I hope everyone is trying to get a handle on time, that is about all you can do and
cherish each day as they keep going by to damn quickly!

My favorite Holiday!
"KA- BOOOOOOOM!!!!"
Cookouts, swimming in the pool, suntanning, music, watermelon, neighbors visiting each others houses and........ FIREWORKS!




soultoshare -> RE: 2 weeks until the 4th of July! Where is the time going??? (6/22/2007 9:08:16 AM)

thank you MzMia.....but some days i'm just feeling older!

NakedOnMyChain.....wait'll he's 22!  Seems like just a few years ago, my UM was just starting kiddiegarden!!!!  (Now THAT will age you!)  I found an old roll of film, got it developed, and it was taken when my UM was about 2, we were all at the St Louis Zoo....I just sat right down and cried.....he was SOOOOOO cute!  BTW...for those of you who ever pass thru there...go see the Zoo....it's beautiful!  I and my UM would go every weekend.....loved it!
