I completely forgot I was meant to go to a Numismatic Society meeting tonight. Then I missed the fact that the day was almost over. By the time I thought about it there were 37 minutes left. At least it made the title an easy choice.
It’s not the first time I’ve completely forgotten something important, but it’s always a worry when it happens. I was tired, I was worrying about something else and I just ran out of brain power. It was 11.00 before I remembered – four hours too late.
It’s 16 days to Christmas and I still have things to do. Time goes so fast!
On the other hand, there are only ninety days of winter left.
I’m going to leave it at that.
By the time I’ve found a photo it will nearly be midnight. I will then go to bed ans dream of parcels.

A Collectors World Parcel
So many stamps! The shortest day approaches and once Christmas and the new year are over daylight time is really getting longer.
Yes, it comes quicker and quicker as the years go by. It only seems like yesterday that I felt all grown up because I had children, and now look at them…
Oh yes; I know that feeling…
I like to think that it is only two weeks until the shortest day rather than endless weeks until the end of winter. (I know that the days don’t get any long for ages after the shortest day but I ignore that.) I too like your well stamped packages.
Good measurement system – makes the Winter feel like it’s over quite quickly.
I hate it when that happens. Yes, winter will speed right by, even in snowy Maine, which, alas, looks more soggy than snowy right now.
You paint a vivid picture in words. Not attractive, just vivid. π
Sigh.
Take heart! Sogginess will, pass, but the underlying beauty, and your ability to describe it, is constant. π
Why, thank you!

I do like your postage plastered parcels
Thank you. It helps to pass the time on a dreadfully doleful day.

Only 90 days of winter left. That time will go by so quickly, especially with all the winter projects yet to start… π
I think winter days, like dog years, last longer than normal time…
