What happened and why didn't I see it coming?

How long ago was it, that I was helping my DD learn her new cheers for basketball?

Did I really play softball at our family reunions?

Was that ME sitting on those rock hard bleachers cheering my children on in sports? It looked like me.

My calendar used to boast dinners out w/friends and movies. Who wrote all those Dr's appts in there????

Didn't I use to get up at the crack of dawn and finally make it back to bed at 1am?? I can't remember!!!

When was the last time that I cleaned my whole house in one day. Seems like it takes me a week now.

Do I really need to rest in the middle of the afternoon? Didn't my kids' used to take naps while I did household chores and prepared dinner??

Pills?? Why so many? They remind me of my grandparent's and their "medication" rituals.

Why can't I just accept all the changes? Is it ME? Heck, I'm only 53. These are my GOLDEN YEARS, right????

Where did I go???

Anyone else feel like someone pushed their " Fast Forward Button" too?
