Though not many of you will believe it, I hate to be late. There I said it. I do not like to be late. That doesn't mean, however, that I'm not often late. I don't know what it is, I always think I'm going to be on time and then end up late anyway. Why is that? And what secret do you "on timers" have that I am lacking?
I will tell you what irks me though, the very people that tease me most about my lateness are often late as well when we do things together. What is that?
I know I am late often, so much so that my dear friend Melissa even had a dream about me making her late. :o) But now you all know that I secretly hate being late, but obviously not enough to keep me from being late.
So if you have the secret to being on time please do share with those of us known as "the late ones". In exchange for this well kept secret, I will divuldge my secret of how to make the most heavenly sugar cookies ever! (If I like your response.) LOL
Send those secrets my way! Every clock in my house is set fast, all different amounts of minutes fast, so that I will hopefully be on time to things. Somehow, I'm still late to everything too.
ReplyDeleteMy parents are never late and their secret is to leave 10 or 20 minuts earlier than i think I need to.
ReplyDeleteAlso - on Sundays it's helpful to get everything together the night before (clothes, shoes, socks) so you're not searching for anything at the last minute.
Sometimes I'm late, sometimes I'm early, but I ALWAYS make the effort. Kids affect my ability to do that~so no guarantees. I aim to be ready 15 min before time to go. MY big pet peave is when the person in charge starts events/parties/meetings late because everyone's not there yet! It wastes the time of all the people who worked to get there on time!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, HI CRYSTAL!!!! Put more pictures of YOU on here so I can see what you like now! I can't see good enough in the tiny Disneyland picture. I just have a memory of you with your short hair as a cheerleader in SD many years ago!!!! Your friend, Erin (Merrill)
Erin! Wow, how did you find this blog? Are you on facebook? I'll try to post more pics but my kids are so much cuter than I am ;)
ReplyDeleteYou need to email me crystal@saltlakecomputers.com so we can catch up.
I am a life-long member of the always late club. I obviously do not have the secret to the magical art of on-timeness, but I will gladly eat some of your sugar cookies. Don't want to know how to make them, just want to eat them.
ReplyDeleteBenjamin...if you want some of my cookies you will have to visit me next time you come to Utah! (they are even better than when we were teenagers!) :)
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to know I'm not only in the always late club. Is Lesley a member as well? I'm not sure if it is good or bad that Lars is, at least we don't get mad at eachother for this but there isn't anyone to push us to be on time either! lol
