Back Again

Well, it only took a year to get back to my blog. If you recall, I had started to work full-time last March, and that's when this blog fell by the wayside. I know there are people out there juggling several jobs, a family, lots of other volunteer activities, and still have time to blog. So really, I have no excuses. All I can say is it has been a hectic year but I'm glad to be back and begin again.

It's amazing how a year can go by so fast. You tell yourself you'll get something done in a week or two and before you know it , months have passed and it's whole new year.

Someone that said that the later years of your life go by like the the last few sheets of a toilet paper was so right. Life's just whizzing by.When we were younger the summers seem to last forever and when we got back to school, everything was so new and fresh like you've been away for a long time. The funny thing is my kids seem to realize now, how fast the days go by. They are so aware of how short the summers are and how they're growing up so fast and adulthood and responsibilities are looming in the horizon. I wouldn't have expected that sort of emotions at such a young age. I wonder if our pace of life is so hectic and stressed that the children don't have the lazed, relaxed feeling about life that we did when we were kids.

Maybe it's time to evaluate the way we lead our lives and reexamine what we're role modeling for the kids. Time to stop and smell the roses, maybe?
