Time flies
Friday, December 02, 2016
They say time flies when you're having fun. When it comes to December people comment with great frequency they can't believe how fast the year has flown by. I'm guilty of it. But this year I feel like things have been different. I'm not going to say it again.
Instead, my version of the year can be summarised as busy. It's been all go; here there and everywhere. I can quantify where the time went. Some of it is recorded in pictures, some of it blossomed in a vase and much of it resulted in being able to sit here and tell you all about it having completed the regular chores.
They say that life is what happens while you're making plans.
It's all too easy to put off things in favour of an easy time; maybe slobbing on the sofa all evening and telling yourself that you'll have a better day tomorrow. Sometimes I do that.
To be fair though, it feels like I've crammed in as much as is realistically possible while allowing myself plenty of sleep. There has been plenty to look back on this year and I can say for certain that I've given it my best. Boxes have been ticked. Over the next few weeks the list of plans for next year will be collated and it will be interesting to see what direction 2017 will lead. One thing I can say for sure is that it's going to be made up of doing things and not just letting time fly by while I'm slow out of the blocks.
