Time Machine

Where did my morning go? Usually posting is towards the top of my daily "to do" list, but here it is nearly half past one and I'm just sitting down to the computer. Well at least I got my current knitting project finished. Here it is--a blue scarf for a girl who turns seventeen today: Therein lies another question: where did my week go? The recipient of this scarf is two states and two days postage away from where I am. This should have been in the mail by Wednesday, Thursday at the latest--in an express pack--but here it is just coming off my needles. And while we're at it, where did the years go? It wasn't so long ago I first met her as a five year old . . . Somehow time's going by faster than I can keep up and there's not much I can do about it. Except in this case, say, "Happy Birthday" from afar and give my friend A a sneak peak of what should be in her hands already. It will be in the mail tomorrow. I'll spare you the, "my, how you've grown!" and "it seems only yesterday" . . .
