I think my wheels fell off a long time ago. 🙂

mine are about to – in 3 weeks time, I have put 1300 miles on my car. and I still have many more to go……

Wow, you sound like me. Just driving back and forth to work 5 days a week I put on 420 miles and I drive to clients sites throughout the week as well on top of that. Our high miles sure don’t help a cars resale value do they? 🙂

no – not particularly. Once the summer is over, my miles will decrease considerably. I have been putting gas in my car every other day. This past weekend, I went nowhere. except to pick the boys up from their dad’s on Sunday night. i needed to give the car and the fuel pump a time out. this schedule is only going to get worse next week – peyton is taking a summer ACT class and the week after – soccer camp! and poor Jordan – trying to fit him in. i am slowly loosing my marbles…..

I love this … I feel that too, the passage of time — and your words captured it.

Thank you so much for your sweet comment and for stopping by and staying;). I look forward to visiting your blog – yes -driving. It has been my life since school has been out. Listening to my boys talk about they can’t wait for this and that. And I am driving around trying to beat traffic and get them to where they have to go on time….I am spent. 😉 and yes, time goes by so much faster as we get older!!!!
