The Ying vs. The Yang

" Time is free, but it is priceless. You can't own it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it, you can never get it back...."

It's crazy how time flies even when you are not having fun. Well, I can't fully say that I haven't been having fun, because if you can't have fun in life - what's the point....BUT the past 2 months have been a whirlwind to me and looking back, I've often asked myself where did the time go? There are a few wonderful highlights that are sprinkled throughout the past 2 months balanced out with a few not so wonderful times. But that's life, right? Balance. The ying and the yang.

I have learned some valuable lessons along with the way though:

- Do not text and walk down the stairs. Falling is inevitable....and I had the bruises to prove it.
- Own your stuff.
- Make lists....whether it's going to the grocery store or things you need to tell people. I swear, if I don't make a list and go to the store, I end up going to the store 20 times in a week because I forget half the stuff I tell myself I need.
- Wait at least 15 minutes before driving after you wake up from a nap. Curbs sneak up on you when you are tired.
- Cooking for one sucks. Potato chips and dip doesn't make for an exciting dinner.
- Stray cats are annoying and scary when they appear on your doorstep.
- SPF 8 is not a strong enough protector against the sun.
