Its February already?

I am finding that the older I get, the faster time goes. Unfortunately, the less productive I am as well. I don't think its as much to do with simply time, responsibilities, or even personal fatigue from stress or added weight (although I haven't gained in recent years). I think its everything that comes with being older. I used to wonder why it took older people so long to get things done. And now I know why.

I have also been ignoring my blogging responsibilities. Facebook is so much easier to post my thoughts on. The problem is, people read my thoughts there. And sometimes I just post as therapy to my self or to clear my mind of the senseless clutter. But then people "like" it and comment. So that is why I like keeping this blog around, because I am not sure who still reads it, and that part is kind of nice. And it helps me keep account of the bigger picture of whats been going on lately...and not just the pieces here and there as I am chugging along in the daily grind.

So...after the events of December, I spent early January catching up on aforementioned much needed rest, and taking down the holidays.

We celebrated Mom's birthday by a dinner here and then dinner out to Sweet Tomatos. Bryan found out he will need a tonsilectomy and nasal surgery. That will be fun. He and his business partner are also in talks to split ways and Bryan is looking into becoming solo owner of his small mechanic shop. School has been busy- I planned and threw a baby shower for a co-worker, ended our second quarter/first half of the year, and my co-teacher and I planned a field trip to the Children's Theater that we got to preview with our husbands as a fun double date. At the end of the month, we had a family game night and then I came down with the stomach flu. :-(

So this weekend I was still catching up on rest and feeling slightly overwhelmed by what just a few days of being down can do to my daily do list. Its Sunday night and I still feel behind...so, off now to clean up the house and prepare for the week! One of these days I will be more productive!
