Just in the normal realm of things, it feels like each minute is 45 min's long today. I have stuff I do, and have done already today, but I look at the clock and it is so slow today. Dragging by.

I'm not sure why it seems to be doing this today. Like the Twilight Zone. LOL

Re: Can this day go any slower?

I just said the same thing to myself. Every thing for the day is done, so it's going to be a loooong one!

Re: Can this day go any slower?

We were up at 6AM because DH ushered at church today at 8AM. Then out to breakfast - home to do a few chores and finish a couple projects and it isn't even noon yet. I love Sundays - when I worked and had a Sunday off it was a real treat. I would usually schedule myself to work at 7PM on Monday so I would get the most out of my sundays off. If we were at our camp on lake Erie we would usually stay until Monday morning so we could really enjoy sunday afternoon when everyone else was driving home we were out on our boat and would stay out to enjoy the sunset.

Yes...since we are under rough weather conditions we were stuck at home all day Saturday and today, Sunday, it is still bitter cold, at least the wind has dined down, but we are still stuck at home...I cannot wait until Monday am so I can go to work........I have a few projects to work on but I need to get motivated.

Everyday goes too fast for me. And I am a procrastinator

Re: Can this day go any slower?

Enjoy the extra time you are experiencing. since I retired I really don't pay that much attention do the clock. The only reasons I now look at the clock are for appointments or to make sure that my DVR hockey games have started when we are home. As the years have gone by and being retired time seems to have tripled in speed I have no long days, but many that's same too quickly speed by.

Get out and do something on a slow day, like take a walk. I did that, then came back & took my dog in my OHV to the lake. We walked around, talked to the "campers" & watched the kayaks.

Hi strait... I would love to get out and take a walk but unfortunately I live in New England and there is no going out anywhere. Have been stuck in for a few days again!! I just said to my husband a bit ago (was 12:30) that didn't it seem like it should be around 4:00. Yup long, long days for us in NE.

no going for a walk around here, either....while we don't have as much snow as June...the driveway is icy....and we have no sidewalks...so it would be walking on the icy road...last weekend I fell flat out trying to clean my car....did in my left knee in I have a giant bruise...I was thankful I didn't break anything....there won't be any icy walking for me...
