The distance has shortened greatly. It seemed like I had been waiting forever for this to get here and now that it’s here, I’m wondering just what I’ve been doing all this time. Obviously not paying attention, perhaps daydreaming, who knows?
I remember I couldn’t wait to drive a car. Then in no time at all, I was looking forward to when I no longer had to. How nice it would be just to stay put someplace.
All too often I found myself waiting for test results. Doctors who looked like they should still be in high school were giving me news that I would have rather not heard.
School reunions were never as expected. Everyone was so old and I didn’t recognize anybody. Was I really in school with this person? What is he even talking about?
Fixing a cup of coffee, thinking about the grandkids. They are always anxious to leave the moment they arrive. It can’t be much fun for them here. They sit staring at their cell phones and don’t seem to know how to talk to us.
Maybe I’ll buy something from
Amazon. Then I can look forward to it
getting here.
