How Would You Spend Your Extra Hours?
Posted by elaney intern: Reader Isa
Along the lines of my previous post, I recalled that I was not alone in my frustration with how quickly time passes. Here are a few famous people/bands that agree with me, and God’s response to all of us.
Time you ain’t no friend of mine. - Hootie and the Blowfish
I’m in a hurry and don’t know why. - Alabama
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day – William Shakespeare
Be still and know that I am God. – God, Psalm 46:10
Here’s my question. Let’s say God did grant my request, and allowed for an additional 6 hours to our day! What would you do with your extra time? Sleep, read, exercise, work, clean, catch up on The Bachelorette that’s waiting so patiently for you on DVR?

Sleep! And watch Glee.

Ace, what about snuggling?

I would read the “classics.” Considering I have a BA in English from UGA, it’s a little embarrassing how few acclaimed authors I’ve actually read. Especially b/c when I have time to read, I want to read something entertaining! So between my Sophie Kinsella and Chelsea Lately, I’m reading Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre out loud to Josephine when we walk.

I would probably shave my legs more than once every two weeks (is that TMI?), bake and make food from scratch, call & email the people I love more often, and conquer some of those things that have been on my “to do” list for like two years.

I would definitely do the fun projects on my to do list that never get finished – like scrapbooks and photo albums. Go on more walks with friends and cook!

Watch the 13+ hours of “Mad Men”, “Grey’s” and “Brothers & Sisters” saved until I delete on my DVR…been lighter fare lately, I guess.

Mad Men, Grey’s, and Brothers & Sisters…never seen any of those. Heard good things about all. If I had to invest in one, which should it be?

Definitely Mad Men. And it starts up again soon, so you can rent seasons 1 & 2 to catch up!
