Life in the Fast Lane

Thursday, June 30, 2005

Have you ever felt like you were living life in the fast lane? I mean all this technology was supposed to slow us down, but I honestly think I have sped up. I don't know how I used to do all the things I used to do, I can barely keep up with the things I am doing now.

I feel like I am zooming around from the time I get up til the time I go to bed. I zoom around in the bedroom making up the bed, cleaning up everything, getting a load of laundry in, taking it out, folding clothes, putting them up. Then I zoom around the kitchen, wash any dishes left in the sink, then zoom around the living room vacuuming. I then go run any errands I have. I come home feed the dogs, take out the trash, water the yard, when all of a sudden I realize it is time to get to work. So I have to jump into my uniform then zoom off into the sunset to work, as soon as I get there, I have to zoom into Squad meeting before the night starts.

What is the saying, time flies when you are having fun. Yippee! I must be having loads of it, because time is passing me up. I am trying my best to outrun it, but to no avail. By the time I get a chance to blog and read the blogs I love to read, then I am out of gas. I get off work... zoom home, pet the dogs, close the gate, run to jump in bed, lay my head on the pillow knowing tomorrow it starts all over again!

I was wondering if anyone else feels like there is not enough time in the day to do all the things you need to do and all the things you want to do? I had planned to go work out today at the gym and ride my bicycle, but didn't seem to get it done, tomorrow I will have squeeze the time in to do those things and also to call my friend, she called today and I never got to return her phone call. I think there is less than twenty four hours in a day!!

Dana, I always feel that way! Like by time I get off work, walk my predetermined amount of miles, cook dinner, clean, blog, and study it's time for bed. Where's the free time?

I got tired just reading about all that zooming. I'm going to take a nap! Have a happy and safe 4th!

I have been complaining about this problem for years.

It seems the more convience and time-saving gadgets I bring into my life and home, the less time I have.
