December Already…

…how did we get her so fast?
Really, things are going too fast.
Yeah, I have a few gifts bought already…just a few…but, I’m just not ready.

Seems like only yesterday when I took my youngest child to college in Nash-vegas…but it was January.

Seems like only yesterday when I celebrated my Mother’s 90th birthday, but it was April.

Seems like only yesterday when we celebrated Mom and Dad’s 70th anniversary, but it was September.

Seems like only yesterday when football started, now…it’s nearly over…WHAT WILL WE DO?

Seems like it was only yesterday when I was in Dayton setting UP Redneck Latte Ravings with Jenny (my lovely niece), but it was October.

Seems like only yesterday when the Azaleas were blooming, the dogwoods were budding, and the grass was green…now…no so much.

Seems like only yesterday when I was calling the A/C repair man. Now, the same guy’s here fixing the heater

Seems like only yesterday when we celebrated our 32nd anniversary. Was it two months ago already?

Seems like only yesterday when my new great niece was born, can she really be almost six months old?

Seems like only yesterday when I was lying in the porch swing at Charlie and Diane’s in Virginia, was that June?

I guess life really is like a roll of toilet paper, it does go faster the closer you get to the end.

Which reminds me, I have to go to the store again.
Wow! It’s December already…Santa will be here in no time…and we can start all over again.

I was thinking the same thing… but feeling a little depressed about the toilet paper comparison. I’m not THAT old yet, am I?

I actually wrote a piece about why time goes faster when we get older. I’ll send it to you later.
