It's all relative

Time that is . . .I think Navin R. Johnson was on to something when he said:

"I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening, when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half. I have it written down, but I can show it to you tomorrow if you want to see it. " The Jerk

Time seems to fly by when I'm doing anything with the kids, everyday seems to pass in the blink of an eye, especially naptime . . .30 minutes seems like 2 :) But when it comes to other things, say running on a treadmill, 30 minutes can seem like 5 hours. The first minute seems like 5 and the second minute seems like 10 and the third minute seems like 15 and the . . . you get the picture. I'm really trying to be good at this exercise thing and the treadmill seems to be the best solution with both kids but man . . .it sucks!
