Time moves so fast.

“How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?” --Dr. Seuss

Time keeps getting away from me, it seems.

I always have more goals than I have minutes in the day. But I suppose that's good, in some ways. I'm never bored!

The past few days have been even more of a challenge. Fighting some minor health issues, so that factors in.

But then we've had those major thunderstorms. Now, I really do like thunderstorms. I love the sounds, the lights. And I like the way the air feels.

However, I don't like the electric flickering on and off. And I really don't appreciate that causing our internet to also go off, even if briefly.

The internet is off for a few moments, the posts I was working on didn't update first...and now I've lost a couple of hours worth of work on my sites.

Time...always time....

I muttered after the first crash that locked the post I had active on my computer. Then I accepted life's challenge and dove into trying to remember what I had just completed.

Although I make a habit of saving my work as I go along, I had done quite a bit between saves. My mistake. I should have learned from past times.

I couldn't remember the exact wording I had used, but I think I came close. I like the way it turned out. Sure do wish I had that perfect memory, though.

It happened again yesterday.

Really? Another hours' work lost? Wow. Ok, life, I'll get back my momentum. I haven't been defeated. Slowed down, but not defeated.

Yes, I got the post completed after the storm passed. But time got ahead of me these past couple of days. I'm behind, not because I'm not working. The lost time is from life's storms, I suppose.

For my techy friends, I do have a battery back-up on my computer. But our internet connection is not yet on one. Yet. That will happen soon. Then I will still be at the internet company's mercy, but I'm slowly getting the problems managed that I can control.

Well, in all truthfulness, my son is getting it managed. I have no idea how to set up the entire system he has. My husband's work (he has a computer company--reliable access is a must) necessitates it and my sons are all quite amazing with their knowledge and skills.

So, I won't take the credit. But I will be thankful when those storms and quirks of life are less of a problem.

And I'm counting this week, thus far, as a success. The challenges didn't win. I rewrote and posted. I'm playing catch-up now as I did lose some time. And today we are expecting more storms. But I'm going to continue! (thinking I may do some work off-line, just in case!)

How is your week going so far?

Have a wonderful Wednesday, my friends!
