AMEN! kind of

When I was little in daycare, that feels long ago. So do things that were only a month ago. They feel long ago. But other memories from years ago feel more recent .

Back in August I was terrified of school! And now, the school year is halfway over.

WELCOME SUMMER!!! (soon)

Yeah! I know that... school will be out only 4 more months and 3 weeks from now! Some schools will only have 4 more months and 2 weeks, depending in other states.

Well, good thing that I graduated school almost 15 years ago... I feel like I am at home peacefully better than going to school!

I can't wait till high school is over!

Dang! You still got 3 more years to go!

I'll say one thing for sure. I really do miss Summer Vacation A LOT. So enjoy those long Summer vacation months while you can, because as soon as you are in the real world of work a day for a living, those will be your fondest memories until retirement.

And here's another little bite of reality that I had to endure. After my senior year, I had to go right to work to earn money so I could go to college, so my very last Summer Vacation was after I finished my Junior year in HS, which was the Summer of 1978. I also turned 18 that year, and voted in my very first election.

Mike

PM, I figured your age way back in 1978 when you were 18... I guess you will be 49 this year, right?

Yep that's right. 49 years YOUNG next July.

Mike

That's interesting.... in 1978, I was only 3 year old. And, I remember I saw JAWS 2 movie.

So that would make me 15 years older then you. And consequently that would mean that you are 33 today or close to it. Am I right?

Mike

Yes, I'm 33. In September, I will turn 34. I was born in 1975. I believe you were born in 1960, right?

That's correct. July 24, 1960 was the day I was born.

Mike

I was born on September 14, 1975. Born and raised in Norfolk, Virginia. What about you?
