50 is the new 20 in my mind


Wow I've been away from blog for awhile and the past two months have been a blur. It has been filled with football and band competitions as well as my day job. And while it was all good it has been truly exhausting.
The last competition was yesterday and just so happened to be at my university Alma Mater. Even though the campus is probably twice as big since my four years there a few years back (alright maybe it was more than a few)I went right back in my mind to that time. I could so picture myself during that time and even though I had a great four years I couldn't help but wish I knew then what I do now. But then it would have been a different experience and who knows maybe not as good as the not knowing.
Even though the campus looked much different as I was walking past some familiar buildings and places on campus, my mind started it's little movie projector of events that took place in those locations. I remember this woman who spoke at a conference who said that you should experience as much of life as you can while you're young so that when you are on up in years you will have these great memories.
I do have a lot of memories but expect that I am going to add many more in this 50 something life. Oh and I almost forgot the younger son's band got first place. They were awesome!
