What Slows Down Time?



Time has been a struggle for me the last two years or so. It goes so fast that I can’t keep up. It’s never been like this before so I’m wondering what it is that I’m doing that’s making it feel this way.

Due to the slower pace caused by the covid-19 pandemic, I thought that after a few weeks it would slow a little. Everything has been cancelled so I’m just home all the time. That hasn’t happened yet. Even when I work at home all day, before I know it, it’s Friday.

It feels like this safer at home order just started but it’s been almost 2 months already. The dates for the Midwest Horse Fair that seemed so far away back in January have already come and gone. I haven’t seen my horse since February and time has gone so fast that I’m just starting to miss him now.

I noticed last night that there was still a glimmer of sky at 8:00 p.m. and light peaking up this morning before 6:00 a.m. This is normally my favorite time of the year because I love the light. I often say that I would love it if we had 24 hours of light like they do in Alaska. My house doesn’t have enough windows so I feel like I’m missing it and before you know it, it’ll be fall again and I’ll be dreading the shorter days.

If you happen to know the secret, please let me know. Is it because I make myself so busy all the time? That’s my suspicion. I’m certainly not bored, even in this lockdown. There’s just so much to do!!!

  • I’m not busy all the time, and each day seems so slow, yet the years fly by so fast. My grandbabies live with me, and it seems like they were just born, yet every day seems like it’s forever long.
    So sorry I can’t help. 🙁

    • I wish I had a forever long day once in awhile!! I agree about the years though!! They are flying by!! I can’t believe my babies are 20 😞

  • I have the same observation about time in my life. it runs very fast. Before I stop and notice anything, it becomes friday. I blame my own focus on work and ambitions. Like yourself I think the remedy is just to stop being so busy every day…. .
