Where Did This Year Go?

I remember back when I was young; the summers were great and seemed to last forever; the years seemed to drag on and on and it seemed like Christmas would never arrive.

Later on in life I was involved in a couple of automobile accidents and it seemed like time stood still through the whole event.  Now that I am older, time seems to be going by so fast that it is hard to keep up with it.  In consideration of this anomaly I have come to the conclusion that when you are young your mind works very fast and time just creeps by, and the older you get the slower your mind works, and therefore the time just flies by!

The problem I am finding with all this is while time is going by faster and faster the things that I have to do seem to take more and more time to accomplish.  Like getting ready to go somewhere, or paying bills, etc and there just isn't enough time in the day to get everything done...I didn't used to have that problem.

Well...I think it took me too long to write this as well!  So, I need to get cracking...which probably means my joints will be the only thing cracking!
