Now what?

I am always amazed at how fast my daughter is growing up.

When I was a kid, time ticked by at a snails pace. Days were long and school would never end. Birthdays never seemed to come fast enough. Christmas was out in the fog somewhere.

How come as a middle aged has been, time is picking up speed? Its not fair, dammit. I'm tired and sore almost all the time. I was in a car accident a month ago and I still feel like the car that hit me, backed up and ran over me again just for spite. My daughter was with me at the time and is back to all her normal activities. Recently she was looking at a picture of me in my early 20's. She asked me why I didn't let my hair grow longer " like in the picture". I would if I could , Honey, I would if I could.
