Time flies by...
Lately Ive been thinking about how quickly time goes by. For instance this past weekend I was at a High School graduation Open House for a girl that seems like yesterday was wearing diapers and had a slight speech impedement....OR.......
I see and realize all the things that todays teenagers are doing or experiencing and think back to when I was partaking in the same activities....LIKE 16 YEARS AGO ......damn....where did the time go?
Skinny dipping in the lake or a gravel pit....puking so hard that you shit your pants at the same time...hiding from the cops at a party in the cemetary BEHIND A HEADSTONE...your first hit of reefer...your first kiss...first dance....first prom...actually getting your drivers lisence, and using it...hiding from people cause your too young to have a beer in your hands, hot pavement under your feet cause you dont give a damn how bad it hurts, oh could go on and on...
We all take all that shit for granted, but thinking back on it all, they were milestones that a person will only experience once in their lives for the first time.
But then I think ahead of the things ive never done yet...such as...retiring, becoming a grandparent, having a kid in college, walking with a cane, having gray hair (upstairs and down), going on vacations without the rugrats, all the things that are inevitable but still in reality are milestones in themselves....
At this time I would like to just live for the moment. Take time to smell the "roses" or whatever smell it may be. Enjoy the disgustingly humid summer days, love these menstrual cramps cause one day I wont have them anymore, lovingly wipe that kids shitty ass, and do it all with joy and a smile....cause thats what life is all about. Live. Let live. And Live well while you can!!!

Summer Activities
Well this photo is actually from last summer.
The first time our youngest was ever on a canoe trip.
It can be stressful. I mean, taking little ones canoeing.
I think I snapped the picture BEFORE I yelled "say cheese!",
either that or I just shit my pants. I dunno, you make the call. Either way it was an eventful day and the girls enjoyed it....
On another note....
The photo to the left is at Michigans Adventure a few weeks ago...Blogger dosent know how to display properly when you ask it to align left..pfft! The pic is of no one in particular, its the Crokscrew ride that I went on with my kid. And it is NOT a fun ride. No, I dont like coasters..call me a wimp, I dont care.
Okay okay..and I know the order of this blog is all wrong...but everytime I load a pic it overlaps the last one!! Damn! The TOP picture is a photo of "camp" when we went camping at Forester Park a couple days after we returned from Mi Adventure..Notice the clothseline...im so domesticated. Dont be jealous!
