Time Flies!

Round about September I get this great anticipation! I begin to get that amorous feeling and glee at the thought of the next months to come! The fall, and the Holidays! I love this time of year! I love the cool crisp night air! The smell of fires being burned in fire places, Decorating for Halloween and Christmas! Having Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas!! All the fun things that go along with these Holidays! Costumes and parties! LOTS of GREAT food and family and time off from school and work, giving and getting presents! Surprising loved ones with their favorite gifts that they always wanted, but would never suspect that you got for them!!! Always every year I'm filled with the excitement of a child thinking about all the great times we're going to have in the coming months! However! This year has been different! I found the time of anticipation coming and passing me by with only a half hearted attempt to get that feeling of anticipation to make my season, but not really being able to grasp it! I'm so BUSY!!!!! Everything is just flying by!!!! I don't even have time to think about upcoming pleasures! I need to think about upcoming events and deadlines! For the first time in almost 10 years we didn't really decorate our house for Halloween!!!!!! I couldn't get to it! I was doing laundry!!! I really just went through the motions of making/ putting together costumes and going to parties, and trick or treating!! I didn't get to think about how great this costume's going to look when I'm finished! And how cute my lovely child who will wear it will look in it! I was thinking Shoot!!! Hurry Hurry!!!!!! Ok this will have to work! I've gotta get this done in 30 seconds!! Oh man! Come on! Get er done!!!! Yes that's about how my life has been it seems! Hurry!! Hurry! HURRRY!!!!!!! With the hurry pushing out the longing and the rush over taking the joyful thrill! It sounds like the wrong way to be! I think it's time for some evaluation and serious overhaul!! Hmmm........ when can I schedule that in? Maybe after the Holidays. ;)
