It's been 16 months since I have blogged anything. Since Facebook took hold everyone left the blogging world to the day to day contact with family and friends. Changes are happening every day and it is challenging to enjoy something for very long before it is replaced by something newer.
I think of how far scrap booking has come since I began. It went from stamping, to cropping, to digital in a matter of a few years. How we take our photos has gone from slides, to film, to video, to digital in the time I have raised my kids.
Things are changing way too fast for me and there are too many options today. I love that we have so many choices but what we choose becomes obsolete before we even enjoy what we buy, and it causes much stress and frustration and wastes my time.
TIME has become very valuable to me the past few years. Think about it, we are already half way through the year and I still feel like I just took down my Christmas tree, and I have done nothing, nothing but work. I WANT MORE TIME! I am willing to do just about anything to give me more time.
I want more time with my grand kids
I want more time to enjoy my yard
I want more time to be with my friends
I want more time to sew, to scrapbook, to organize
I want more time to just enjoy the moment, without all the demands
I want more time with my aging mother
My dad use to say, "If you want to do something you TAKE the time." I would tell my kids that a lot when they would grumble to me, "I don't have time." But now days, I don't think there is the time to TAKE.
Not enough Time and too many options. What a challenge we all have before us. I guess we'll just keep on keepin on. I will any way, and pray that life will slow down just a smigin.
