Mine too. Normally. Except when I am on holiday.

2018 was a record breaking year up and down the East Coast of USA as fas as total RAINFALL amounts.

Sure enough....rain is moving in to end the year in style and greet 2019.

Here's what I found on the 'net about time going faster as we age:

Research shows your brain's internal clock runs more slowly as you age -- which means the pace of life appears to speed up. Other research suggests that the perceived passage of time is related to the amount of new perceptual information you absorb; when you're young, everything seems new, which means your brain has more to process... which means the perceived passage of time feels longer. There's biochemical research that shows the release of dopamine when we perceive novel stimuli starts to drop past the age of twenty, which makes time appear to go by more quickly.

It’s almost 2019...I'm getting older, worn out, & I still have so many unanswered questions!!!!
I haven’t found out who let the dogs out, where’s the beef, or how to get to Sesame Street. Don't know why Dora doesn’t just use Google Maps, why all the flavors of fruit loops taste exactly the same, or how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop!!! Why eggs are packaged in a flimsy carton but batteries are secured in plastic that’s tough as nails. What does the fox say or why “abbreviated” is such a long word. Why is there a D in ‘fridge’ but not in refrigerator, why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor, yet dish-washing liquid is made with real lemons. Or why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections & why do you have to “put your two cents in” but it’s only a “penny for your thoughts” where’s that extra penny going to??? Why does The Alphabet Song & Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have the same tune, why did you just try to sing those two previous songs??? And just what exactly is Victoria’s secret? and where is Waldo? Can you hear me now? And do you really think I am this witty??? I actually got this from a friend, who stole it from her brother’s girlfriend’s uncle’s cousin who lived next door to an old classmate’s mailman!!

I especially liked the sterile needle for lethal injection!

For a second, I DID think you were that witty! And we all know what the Fox says!

This is so fricken funny!!!

Well, it's 9a and I can't think of anything else to keep me in the house sitting here by the wood stove. I've fed all the indoor animals, brushed my teeth, I'm dressed and everything in here is taken care of. Guess I'll have to go out and brave the cold world!

Happy New Years Eve!!

Here’s a glimpse of us riding yesterday. It was dusty but fun.

We had 13 riders and I was last so I get the worst of the dust but I don’t care.

 

[Momof4]

Here’s my son. He’s not super daring but building confidence on the hill.
The sand is so soft it’s easy to crash.

Looks like you guys could use some of our rain! Dust? We have mud.

I think you showed the same video twice???

I changed it.

It rained in early December but it dried up.

Some areas are just sandy so it never hardens.
We do ride in the desert floor in washes and it’s pretty rough.

Please send some!! I’ll help, here are some clouds!

I would love to try mud!! Except cleaning the toys would take hours!!
