Another weekend gone in the blink of an eye

It’s amazing how quickly weekends go, isn’t it? One moment, it’s Friday and you’re looking forward to spending 2 days not at work, just relaxing. The next thing you know, it’s Sunday night and you’re wondering where the weekend has gone.

It’s amazing how fast it goes. And, if you, like most of us, are trying to claw your way up the corporate ladder (some with more success than others) and your job isn’t everything you want it to be, time off goes by even faster.

Last weekend, we took a 3-day weekend, and got to go on a little overnight “adventure” to Daytona Beach. That was fun - but what the heck did we do for Friday night, Saturday morning and all day Monday? Couldn’t tell you. It was gone in the blink of an eye, and we were right back at work again.

Maybe it’s all television’s fault. It’s so easy to get lulled into watching television. You tell yourself it’s just going to be an hour or so. Next thing you know (especially if you have any of the movie channels), half the day has gone by…and you can barely remember what you’ve been watching this whole time.

Then again, who keeps plopping down in front of the television (or curling up with a book - or logging onto the computer, nowadays). Yup, us. Then we complain about where the time goes.
