Who pushed the forward button?
 
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!!! :Scratch-Head:

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

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?

Mine is more like a slow-mo, rewind/replay button..:mad: :D

I don't know DM but someone pushed mine too. I may not have ms but I can relate so much. My calender is filled with Dr names and times and appointments. What happened to rejoycing for the weekend? What happened to HUMP day where we only had two more days until freedom? What happened to being able to clean the entire house in one day flat? What happened to being able to have a drink or two or three and not be afraid you'll be drunk? What happened to...?

I know what you mean, DM. Sometimes it feels like I'm on "fast forward".

I don't remember time going so quickly (or seeming to go so quickly) when I was a child. It seemed like to took forever for Christmas to get here. And birthdays.....seemed like a year was just an eternity. Now.....I blink and I'm another year older. Or it's Christmas again.

How does that happen??

Earl i will go further and say a smack will be involved too:grin:

Aw DM:hug: I know what you mean it sucks, and its scary too at same time, hang in there dont let it get the best of you cause, the best of you is something we all enjoy:hug:

AfterMyNap 09-10-2008 01:36 PM

Gee, DM, I know just how you feel.:hug:

DM 09-10-2008 01:43 PM

Sorry to say that it helps knowing I'm not the only one to feel like this. I know what you mean, Kell~ the holidays are just around the corner AGAIN!

And as Sandy said~ I used to pray the weekend would get here; now it's like OH, where did the week go???

I used to pick apart the old me all the time. Did my hair look good? Was I gaining weight? Is THAT a gray hair?? It can't be!!!!

Now, it's "how many saturated fats are in this dish? Do I take this pill w/ or without food???

I'd push the pause button on the remote, but I forget where I put it.
