Where does the time go?

I have no idea why I'm posting today after a three month sabatical from blogging. I know very few (if any) will actually read this, but for some reason I feel like writing.

I have had one of the busiest summers of my life, and I don't know where the time has gone. It's strange, really, since I worked all summer but didn't actually teach classes, that I feel like I ran out of summer time much too soon. I remember having all these plans in May for what I was going to get done...lesson plans, house cleaning/organizing, afternoons by the pool...and yet...I'm still pale, unorganized, and now creating lesson plans on a daily basis because school has started and I'm somehow already behind schedule. Where does the time go?

I had also planned on helping my cousin with her new twins over the summer. Somehow, my Saturdays disappeared too, and she and I have spent less time together over the last few months than we have over the last two years. Again...where does the time go?

I wish this post contained news of a baby on the way or other grand changes that have happened, but really...life has just continued on at its lightspeed pace. There are some drastic changes looming on the horizon for Mr. C and I, but I will wait to share those until they are certain to occur. He and I continue to wait in faith that God will someday bless us with a little one. Since no real improvements have been seen since his surgery, we will be facing in vitro again in the future. If you happen to read this post, I would be grateful for your prayers. The word in vitro fills my heart with fear and doubt, and I know I will need HIS strength to get me through it again. Somehow...with life speeding by so quickly...this one part of my life seems to be at a standstill.

I have ideas of writing more posts about what happens in my classroom from time to time. My new students add a level of hilarity to my day that I haven't had in awhile, so I may actually have some blog worthy stories to share. Of course...I make no promises. :-D
