Long Weekends

I am not sure about long weekends anymore. When I was younger they were all about more time with the kids, no school and no work. The older I get, the less impact they have on my reality. I can read a book, wander the internet, write something or watch home improvement channels on tv (or the food network).

This long weekend has been spent vegitating because its the first one in a long time where there were no "have to's". Having the tail end of vacation added to the beginning of the long weekend is a bit disconcerting because yesterday felt like it was Sunday.

Ok, I am a bit strange. But I do not always think about the differences between when I was young and now. Just when the pace lets up, or when the pace does me in. Then I feel OLD. Otherwise I don't think about it.
