Irony

I saw this when I ran past it today. Clearly, it was not meant for me, but the message was a fun juxtaposition against my dutifully plodding middle-aged gait. Actually, as I reflect on the last few weeks, maybe this is a message in a bottle, to slow down and relax. Regardless, feel free to scroll on past! :)

One day left to wrap up packing, currency conversion (the UK has some very pretty bills, by the way), bank accounts, credit cards, insurance policies, current adaptors and passport copying that is involved in sending one kid overseas to the UK and another off to freshman year of college.

Thanks for stopping by... I appreciate each visit.

What a good reminder! Good luck to all tomorrow

[Dianna Coile]

Sounds like you'll deserve a reduced speed soon!

[Taffy]

It sounds like it serves as a perfect metaphor for your life at the moment.

[Kathy]

So you will be an empty nester soon? It's always good to slow down whenever possible, it's the stopping that will get you!! Great capture!!! FAV!

[Sally Ings]

I think we all need to heed the advice from time to time. It's finding (or making) the time that can pose a problem!

[Rachel]

I hope you can get to relax when the kids are off on their adventures.

[Sam]

HAHAH made me laugh ;)

[Graham Thresher]

Super shot.

[Joyce]

Perhaps you should take it's advice. Your life sounds hectic at the moment!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Good one! Love what you wrote in the tag line too. Best wishes in getting the kids off to their respective places.

[Daweenie]

Sounds exhausting. Maybe that sign is for you.

Great find and capture...sometimes you need to slow down and smell the roses (as the old saying goes)

[MoyaC]

All the best for this last frantic day

[☠northy]

Oh yes... The irony... Once while running by a construction zone the sign holder switched to "slow down" just as I "hobbled" past ;p. Hope all the planning and preparations go smoothly!

[Kim Harper]

Actually I think this message was meant for you . . . maybe once the kids are off to college you can do that a bit. My goal is to slow down long enough to get bored. Never happens! And I get bored quite quickly. :)

This sign is a great reminder to us all! I hope you will get to visit your child in England!
