Wish I could hit the brakes

I really do...I wish I could hit the brakes and just stop time.  And then again, I don't.  Where would I stop it?  My first thought was before Dad died, but he was suffering and I certainly wouldn't want to extend that.  Then I thought maybe back to before Dad was even sick, but then I wouldn't be married with my amazing children.  So no, let's not stop time, but oh goodness, it just seems to be flying by so quickly.

We are heading into the final week of October...this month absolutely flew by.  We are so very much looking forward to the holidays around here, yet I am NOT looking forward to the early parts of November.  There are going to be tough days, and I am certain of that.  It won't only be the memories of Dad and his passing, but things with Mom as well.  If we are able to proceed with a specialist for her esophagus it is going to involve traveling...one of my absolutely least favorite things to do.  I know I shouldn't complain, but I'm not looking forward to it.

Since the males in our house were camping last night, we are having a quiet Sunday afternoon.  I am grateful for these moments.
