Where Has The Week Gone

[Bazile]

I know it's an overused cliche ,but arent the days whizzing by

I can't believe it's Friday tomorrow already .

It was just Sunday a bit earlier , wasn't it ?

[bookbinder]

The perception of the passing of time seems to depend a great deal on one's age. When I was about 11 or 12, the summer holidays of 6 weeks lasted for ages, but nowadays 6 weeks just goes 'zip!'

[Theland]

I count the passing of time by wheelie bins.
Green one week, grey the next.
Seems like no time at all and the binmen are back :-(

[wiltsman]

When you're 10, for instance, then a year is a tenth of your life as you know it, but when you're 60, a year is only a sixtieth of your life. Does that explain anything?

[bookbinder]

It does seem, wiltsman, as if we of more mature years are subconsciously counting down the years to our own doomsday. We are not so much looking to the past as looking to the future.

[iluvmargie]

Yes, I've been saying this for ages now. You wake up on Monday morning, blink a few times and suddenly it's Friday night. It's quite scary as you get older!

[jno]

speak for yourself, bookbinder, there's much in my past to wallow in; not so much in my future.

[bookbinder]

iluvmargie, you're quite right! And the time seems to pass more quickly if one is fully occupied with daily chores.

[sanmac]

Also, keep in mind that time flies like an arrow and that fruit flies like a banana. As bookbinder said, when were kids the summer holidays seemed endless.

The days are whizzing by, Baz and you'd think time would be dragging being where we are these days.
We have a takeaway on Sundays. Partly because it's delicious and partly so we know what day of the week it is at least once without having to ask Alexa.
I was starting to think Dave was ordering the takeaway twice a week just to confuse me even more..... :-(

[iluvmargie]

bookbinder I find it whizzes by even if I'm not busy. It's why we have to make the most of every single minute.

When I was a young lad my grandfather said to me that the week goes like this:

Monday..........Tuesday.........Wednesday.........Thursday........Friday

SaturdaySunday

Monday..........

[Maydup]

The weeks do whizz by, and as for this year! Its been the strangest and most challenging of all years, but where has it gone? Its nearly over and last time I looked it was probably June!

[gness]

I know, Maydup. I have to do something arty farty by the end of November. How is it already nearly the end of November!?

[emmie]

an old friend said years ago, wait till you get to 21 then you will see the years go flying by. She in this instant wasn't wrong

[Theland]

It can be an exciting journey watching the news.
Watching where the world is going.

[emmie]

according to some theland, hell in a handcart

[Theland]

Emmie, look at B&S.
