Half Gone

Half the summer is over and I have no idea where it went. I was in Babies R Us  the other day and Halloween outfits were already out. Why do the stores rush our lives away? It seems like all of the fun plans I had for the summer, have not been done yet. I went to the pool only a handful of times. I only went to one concert. I have not taken my vacation yet. I barbequed twice. How can I possible fit all of the events I planned into four more weeks? August will be a busy month as all of my special family plans are scheduled for then. I will try to stay away from the large retail stores as I am not yet ready to buy my Thanksgiving turkey.
