Passage of Time

Two weeks left and then the kids are done day care forever. Three weeks left and I'll be reading the Sunday paper in a new house.

Four and a half weeks and the kids will be back in school.

Time is flying by. We all never seem to have enough of it and I know I personally sure don't. I already don't sleep a whole lot and suddenly these past few days when I try to go to bed I can't so I'm getting even less. But, am I using all that time as productively as possible? Nope! I know that answer for sure.

I've been getting down on myself pretty hard over the last couple of weeks. I'm not doing as much as I would like. Some things that I want complete or that I wish were further along or not. I'm fighting the good fight and have all the weapons to win the war so why am I not moving more on the battlefield? I think it's just me standing in my own way a lot of the time, but I know that there are plenty of others getting in the way as well once and a while.

Jason Calacanis got shit earlier this week talking about hitting bottom of time and not having enough of it for Facebook and other social network sites. I can totally see where he is coming from. A LOT Of people are hitting the wall as far as time and care about any social network. Earlier this week I sent out invites to several people for a new network and the system sent out URL's that didn't work. So not only do I have to deal with this network, but I have to deal with telling people over and over how this site blew it's first impression. I don't even want to link to it. *grin* I'm very happy with my LinkedIn already so I don't need to go elsewhere.

Time is flying by. Every day we move forward and every day I think of something that I wish I had done. I need to get better about that. Once I get into the new house things are going to change. That much I have determined. I'm using that as a transition point for me. Sure it delays things for a few weeks, but as I just said I KNOW it'll be here before I know it.
