I spent most of 2007 trying to slow time. I was unsuccessful.
Each day as we approached our move to South Carolina, I felt panic as time slipped away. Why did it have to go so fast? Couldn't I have just one more day in the townhouse we loved? Or another fun evening with friends we cherish?
I wanted more time at my job. I wanted more time in the DC area. I wanted more time to watch the Redskins play. I wanted more time with my family. I just wanted more time and I wanted things to stay the same.
Now that we're in Charleston, I know time will still fly. But in 2008 I will be trying to slow time for a different reason--I have so much I want to do. Each year as the calendar flips to January 1st, it's exciting to look ahead to the future. I can't wait to see what is in store for me and Dave, our friends, and our family. Here's to a happy and healthy 2008!!!!
