so little time.\u00a0 Over the years I think we have all\u00a0said…I wish there were more hours in the day.\u00a0 It probably started while we were still in the cradle.\u00a0 How many of us willing put our heads down and went to sleep, even at a tender age we wanted more hours to our day.\u00a0 As we went along in life it seemed we needed more hours to accomplish chores that many times we really didn’t\u00a0enjoy doing.\u00a0 We always seemed to need more hours to do things such as cutting the lawn, washing the car, washing clothes, ironing clothes, helping with homework and the like.\u00a0 Wanting more hours was not always a good thing, it just meant we worked longer in a given day.\u00a0\u00a0I want to say to my children and grandchildren, imagine if you could close your eyes and wish for more hours in the day to do things you liked doing, and that is\u00a0after spending the hours you had in a day, \u00a0doing exactly what you liked doing.\u00a0 Well,\u00a0that is what it is like when you retire, and especially if you retire in The Villages.\u00a0 There were so many things going on last Saturday that it was almost ludicrous, no it was ludicrous.\u00a0 Craft fairs, Art in the Park, Opening of Brownwood’s Paddock Square, Sumter County’s Master Gardening Plant Sale, Farmer’s Market at Brownwood and I could go on and on.\u00a0 There were bands playing, cheerleaders cheering and twirlers twirling, and I swear the attendees at these functions were also\u00a0playing, cheering and twirling with excitement.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I know because I was there and that is why I say to myself I need more hours in the day. I love deep water aerobics and \u00a0I love writing my blog, I have really gotten into watercolors and love painting, I love reading my books for book club and there are\u00a0days I just don’t know what to do first.\u00a0 What really cuts into my time and I love this too, \u00a0is doing things with my friends, which always includes lunch or early dinner.\u00a0 Each day when I get up and before I start I already am saying I wish I had more hours in the day.\u00a0 I think you will agree with me that it is much more fun wishing for more hours now than it was many years ago.\u00a0 Well I’m running out of time, have\u00a0to use it wisely as there are not enough hours in the day to do all the things I love doing.\u00a0 Wishing you more hours in your day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
