Where has the time GONE...

I know we all do it...
We look back at our lives and ask, "Where the heck has all the time gone!"
And of course as we get older we ask that question MORE AND MORE...Now I'm not sayin I'm old!!  (That would be DJ, my darlin hubby who's old)...BUT I will say I am getting older!  (Geesh when the heck did that happen!)
 
Anywho, there are times I ask that a lot about time.  Of course my kids think time has STOPPED for them.  But didn't we all think that at some point in life! 
 
For example this last month...
For me its just flown by!!  Well most of it!  There was a week that went on and on and on and on (oh,WAIT... I think you get it). Its crazy to think we are already halfway into February. WHERE HAS ALL THE TIME GONE!!
 
However if you were to ask Josh (one of my little pills) if time is speeding by, he'll probably give you a dirty look (and if looks could kill, look out).  I think this last month has been the slowest in his life.
WHY...
Well, 3 days before the end (yes the end) of Christmas break, Josh decided it would be fun to break his wrest.
 
Humm, I guess I should explain. Its not like he went out to break it on purpose, but it did happen.
HOW- you ask...
WELL, he received THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT EVER from his aunt Stacy and uncle James (Thanks guys...can't wait to see what you get him next Christmas, seems like each year the gifts are getting more and more dangerous but he is a boy,).  Its called a single skate.  Its a skate board thing the size of your foot and you steer it with you other foot.  He really likes it!  So he was out riding it, hit a rock, flipped up and over, cut up his body and well I guess the rest is history (his little brother said it looked really cool).  He was in a hard cast for 4 weeks and now in a soft cast for another 4.  The dr. says no pollvolting for track (which really really bums him out a lot cuz track started a few weeks ago and this has kind of slowed him down on training). 
 
Because of all this time just is slowly going by for the kid!  Yesterday he tried to open a bottle of Gatorade and he couldn't (he had NO arm strength). Trying not to laugh (OK I really didn't do a good job), I stood there watching...then watched as his friend tried to open it...again laughter just couldn't stay in me...I finally took the bottle and opened it for him...Can I say Blahahahahahahahahaha!!!
 
At my age each day doesn't seem long enough.  I feel like I need more time. Sleep is over rated, RIGHT!?!  Days just speed by.  But for poor poor broken Josh time is just slowly ticking by...
Tick tock tick tock............
