Time Flys

Well September is all but gone, where did the days go? Somebody told me that the older you get the more time moves faster. When I was a kid I always thought time went very slow. In Particular in some of my high school and college classes. A minute seemed to last for hours. Kinda like in football when the final two minutes takes at least 15 minutes. Then I look back at the calendar. I mark things on the calendar so I don't forget the events. Going back to July was my week and a half with the Air Force Regional Staff College. Then in August was the trip out West to stay at the time share and drive around for a couple of weeks. Then came September and the National Conference in San Antonio. Then came meetings and doctor appointments and now we are in October. Besides the usual events normally scheduled during the month, I have to go to Pittsburgh for a conference and then the week after that is the much delayed and eagerly looked forward to trip to Argentina. Haven't seen my oldest daughter for 9 months, so I can't wait to get there. My wife is going also so she will be able to experience Argentina. Seven days after coming back from Argentina I'm off to Florida for 10 days. In December, my wife and I are flying down to Florida so she can enjoy the warmth of South Florida in the middle of Winter. We will be back by the 8th and no more traveling until March with my usual drive down to Florida. 3+ years into my retirement and still not bored. Tired but not bored. Did the laundry today with the expert assistance of Midnight who help sort the clothes for the washer. Yesterday I walked down to the bank and store, not bad of a walk, but my foot started bothering me again. Well my Spanish has hit a a roadblock or a mind block, I get on the Rosetta Stone software and going well and then just have a mind blank. On the flight to San Antonio I listened to my Coffee Break Spanish lessons. The Rosetta Stone and the coffee break spanish use completely different methods. Maybe in a few years I'll learn enough. My reading skills are improving but I use association rather than translation. Well it is past my bedtime.
Ciao
