The Girl, the Gold Watch & Everything…

When I was younger I was obsessed with this B made for TV move – The Girl, the Gold Watch & Everything.  it was about this detective (I think he was a detective) who inherits this watch that will either a) stop time or b) make you invisible.  I don’t even remember what the rest of the movie was about, but I would daydream for hours about what I could do if I had a watch like that.  When I first watched it I used to think about doing mischevious things, like eating all the cookies, or staying up late to read (ok, clearly I was a good kid).  Then later in college I used to think about stopping time to sleep in or finish the paper I’d waited until the last minute to write.  Even now I still crave more time – wishing the day had 26 or 28 hours.  What would I stop time for now?  Maybe to clean the house, bake a loaf of bread, sew that skirt that’s been sitting next to the sewing machine, or for a little while, maybe I would just sit and watch my kids sleep.  Time is going by so quickly – I can’t believe Aiden is 8 1/2 months old already.  These little ones are so precious.  A quick picture from Delia’s recital and one of Aiden from a couple of weeks ago.  Have a great week!
