Slipping Away

Time is going by too fast. One week slips into another before I even recognize it and then before you know it....a month has gone by. Someone asked today about some thing we did awhile ago and I immediately said 'it was last year', then corrected myself and said 'no, maybe it was two years ago' and before I knew it, I said 'it was 5 years ago'. Bam! time was gone! Eaten up!

I think I am in the phenomenom of time lapse which my parents talked about. We are at that age where 'it was just yesterday' (or so it seems). I don't like it! Not one bit! 

My brother is turning 70 this year, and my other brother is 67! They are older than me but every time they turn a year over, so do I! I reluctantly turn those years over now! It used to be I could hardly wait to be one year older! Something like the grandkids now! They like getting birthdays and getting older. We do not!

I think this is the last year that I want to celebrate! I certainly enjoy the gifts, the dinners, the cards. But...I think this is it! Don't bother next year. I am staying the same age from now on. Don't even ask how old I am as I won't be giving it up! If you forget, too bad!


Not sure what brought this 'rave' on tonite but ...this is all I have to say about that!
