It sure does seem so, more so when Thanksgiving is so late in the month. at least that's what I seem to notice in those years.

Yes, @QVCkitty1!  I have a gift that I need to mail and I just have not gotten it done.  I keep thinking there's time but I suddenly need to get on it.  Tomorrow for sure!  I need to wrap our gifts too.  Another job for tomorrow.

Yes, time is flying! When my children were still young and they started saying time was flying; I knew it really was! 😝 

How come time doesn't fly while I'm at work? 🤔

Yes rocket speed ahead for the last month or so.  You wouldn't know it by the weather though here in metro Denver.

Mostly 60's for the next several days, no snow in sight, Christmas day they're forecasting 69 degrees.

@rockygems123  Wow, you must live in a warm place.  I could take that.  I do like snow for Christmas, but then it could go back to 70 deg and sun........in my dreams!!

In my case, cooler weather that I can physically enjoy seems to pass much faster than the other 9 months of the year.  I just don't like the heat but with my MS, I have to be careful as it can cause unwanted side effects that might or might not go away.  Night before last it got down to 25 degrees.  I had my north window cracked.  Experts say for optimal sleep, you should sleep with your room between 60-67 degrees.  I'm sure I was at the low end of that range.

 I just Googled Christmas Day temp, it's 73

[JoyFilled Warrior]

As fast as Winter/Holiday time often speeds by, seems so much is happening now, at breaking speed, at so many places, & on so many fronts, & levels, in that now, it's even more, everywhere, & includes so much more than the usual "Holiday Times, " News, & incl provider, services offering speed, span & expanse. 

Even dealing with addt'l profound, unexpected, extreme weather/temp changes, concurrently!!  Almost numbing.  

I can neither keep track of, or even keep score!

Even when I manage to jump on, I just get dizzy, PDQ!

Feels like trying to jump on a very, very, already, beyond Speeding By, beyond Speeding Past,  "Merry-go-Round."

I'm still dealing with my "very soon to forever dodge/escape," 24+ yr Medical Doc/Specialist issue, made worse even just late today, when his Clerk suddenly snatched, & became hostile this afternoon!

And, I just rec'd an email Invite/Reminder from my Tax Atty, to start the process of 2025 Tax Prep even!!  Like how?  I havent even rec'd the requisite forms you need yet!

Honesty, I havent figured out how to handle any/all of this yet.

My husband and I discuss this often. I often say once Memorial Day happens it's all downhill the rest of the year. As well sit here with about 2 weeks left in 2025. Kind of crazy. He says the older you get your reference for time changes. I hate the time between January and May....just drags on.

@monicakm it was very chilly here in Florida Monday morning and even last night. I think you are on the gulf side where I am Central Florida.

I don't like it one bit. I'm retired and I stay home most of the time yet I can't seem to find enough hours in the day to get things done. I get up early and still the clock runs too fast. Before my chores are done it's bedtime already.  What is up with that?

We are up against the foothills as close as you can get to the Rocky Mountains and it's tropical ha!

Normally that's how it can be here, snow then next day bright sunny day it's beautiful.

Was shocked when we moved here 27 yrs ago guys were out in their shorts 35 degrees.  Something to do with the altitude.
