Quickly slow down

So I have this bad habit of wishing my life away. Everyday when I drive to school I say "yes its already Tuesday" **positive self talk that keeps me from turning the car around**. Could the week go any faster? Could the semester be done any quicker? Could it be may already? How about June? Not looking forward to July but Sept. I'll be settled and in a better place... or will I...I do this with other things too... Like planning. I am already planning what my apt. will look like in Evanston. I have already planned visits with friends and vowed to pick up their bus ticket to come see me. I have already decided what I will eat and drink to remind me of my friends in Duluth. When I miss LeBec I will make her orange sherbet/chocolate ice cream/ almond/whip cream combo, and when I need a Sara fix I will probably spend some quite time with Lemon tea/honey/and vinegar... (extra vinegar depending on the day). The Cheddar sour cream ruffles and dip will always take me back to times with Marisa... and I plan on having all of these things on hand at all times... for those desperate moments when I need them and can't have them. Its crazy that I do this because I pride myself in my ability to savor the moment. I know what I have and its amazing... I could linger over a cup of coffee or after church or on the porch just knowing how special and precious all of these times are. I think all of the hustle and bustle and my wishing away my life is a defense against what is to come... Bring it on I say....but lets cram as much in as we can until then....OK??
