Time Flies

Sunday was our surprise party for Mom and Dad. I'm quite sure they were totally surprised, and many friends and loved ones came to wish them 'Happy Birthday'. (see the previous post for the picture)
As I just told a friend moments ago, "Life is like a roll of toilet paper....the closer you get to the end, the faster it goes." I must be very near the end, because life seems to be flying along at an incredible speed! January is nearly gone. It seems that I stay quite busy, but get nothing done. Not that I'm greatly concerned about that, but some days I wonder how I could have been so busy and accomplished so little!
These are a few things that occupy my time:

  • Assisting with "Sparkle In the Darkness" girls' group
  • Bus Driving
  • Community Bible Study
  • Dennis
  • Exercise (I always intend to do more, but usually don't)
  • Feeding the birds
  • Grand parenting
  • Housework .... just a little bit, once in a while
  • Imaging (photography and photo editing)
  • Jesus ... I'd like to think that Jesus is included in every minute of every day
I thought about trying to use the entire alphabet, but won't for at least two reasons:
  1. I am unable to think of an activity for several letters, so a complete alphabetical list isn't even possible for me and my limited vocabulary.
  2. The complete alphabet would mean a list of twenty-six activities. I am not that active! And, if I were, it would sound as if I were boasting.
I must quit here, because the time has slipped away, and if I don't get going, there will be no one to drive the students riding bus #30 home!
