When I moved house I did not have room for all the thousands of photos and albums I had but I didn't want to get rid of them and so I divided them between my three married daughters.
Every now and then they will scan some of the photographs and send me some to store on my PC.
In my inbox today I found some of these photos including the one that I have enclosed with this discussion.
This photograph was taken when I was a young 22 year old with my eldest daughter then aged fourteen months , it was taken 37 years ago - I can remember that photograph being taken as if it was yesterday!!
Just look at the length of my skirt!!!!!
What has happened to you to make you suddenly think 'Where did that time go?'?

Hiya chem,
My mom had a lot of my photos and somebody did away with all of them. I have no idea where they are as many of them were my School Photos that they took every year. I don´t know if somebody is keeping them locked away and since they don´t speak to me or phone or write to me I just have no idea how I could feel really. I have one photo with my Sister which I had renewed in the Photographers in Black and White and that´s it all the rest have vanished. I proved this the last time I was over there an alas I cannot make People talk if they don´t want too.
I like your Photo though you look nice there too you should have seen the length of my Skirt it was even shorter.

Hiya chem,
No chance of that happening I know who has them and this person will not let them go. So I might as well give up before I start. The annoying thing is too that my sister in law ruined all my negatives too. If they had been her negatives you can bet she would have treated them with loving care. I borrowed them to her and when I moved house she ruined them. That´
s life for you.
s life for you.

it's always nice to reminise about the good old days, especially when you were with good friends whom you kept through the years. right now, our school is busy with the upcoming centennial celebration and i can't wait to see my old classmates again. and the bonus is, we're going to wear our old school uniforms again!

My friend did said to me, "As we grow older, the time slips and past by us faster than we felt."
I guess that's common statement suits what we've experience now. I also felt the same way since no matter how we proceed with our daily lives, and still we felt the time past us by faster than we expected it to be.

I'm in my 30's now but I remember the games my cousins and I used to play as children. The paper dolls and street games are our favorite topics whenever we get together. And then we realize that now it is our kids who are playing this games and we remember how our parents would call us home every afternoon. We would laugh about it because now it is us who does the calling home every afternoon.

I am just 24 and I got 2 year old son. What makes me thinking "where did the time go?" is when I saw my old dresses which are just 3 years ago, I couldn't wear them anymore. I became bigger, before I only have 24-26 waistline but now I got 30. I am now in a very strict diet. I hope I can atl east go back to that body ...LOL
