EXTRA TIME
Where does the time go? When I quit my teaching job this summer, I was looking forward to "extra" time, to clean out closets, scrub baseboards, organize shelves,read some books, have leisurely lunches with friends,etc. But have I done any of those things? NO!!!! I really thought there was going to be time for "extra" things. But I found that there is so much to do in daily life, that there is no time for the extra's. My dad always said, "Work expands to fill the time." Maybe that is what is happening. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to do all that "extra" stuff someday...like when my kids are all grown. I'll have extra time then. Right? Mom????

It seems like Mom is just as busy now as when she was raising 11 children!

Your not alone. I have heard retired people say, "When did I find time to work?"
