Like when my kids were young, cute, & sweet—before they became teenagers? Yeah.

slightly. I miss the good days. I think we all let the bad days fade out in the glow of the good ones. So yea, of course I miss those good days – I mean, who doesn’t miss those days that were like warm sunshine in the beginning of spring? But if they come with everything all over again, then no. Today, even at its worst is past all of that. Today was the future as of yesterday for a reason.

I miss the days when people thought it was clever to live within their means. I’m a bit overextended now myself and I’m kicking myself for it.

I miss them. Most I miss my family members who have died. The chance to spend just one more day with them.

I miss the trust in human goodness I used to have.

I miss the idea that I was always safe and taken care of. Like when you were a kid.
I miss the entirety of a College’s resources at my fingertips
I miss the beauty of San Fransisco and the knowledge I could go for a drive anytime and enjoy it.
I miss the stability of employment I had on the west coast and the loss of it ever since I moved back to the midwest. People here can certainly be full of themselves.

thats it for now.

Not at the moment, things seem to be looking good right now and I can see how my past experiences have led me here.

I miss the days when my best friend and I had never had a fight, and I miss the days when she was level headed.

I miss the days when I was dating my ex and would get excited just to talk to him.

I miss the days when I thought my male coworkers actually enjoyed my company and weren’t just trying to sleep with me. I miss the illusion, and I miss the times before it was all confessed to me, when those people were my party buddies, my confidants, and my friends.

I miss the simplicity of elementary school. I miss coming home with my best friend and kinda-sorta cheating on our Weekly Readers and watching the Disney Channel and Nickelodeon, when those channels still showed good stuff.

I miss innocence, but I would never go back before losing my virginity. That was honestly one of the most romantic and most meaningful moments of my life.

I miss 10–11 years ago when I went to the store with a 5 dollar bill. I bought two gallons of gas for 89cent, a 20 ounce soda and a pack of Marlboros. All of this was covered by a five at that time.

I miss my children being little. I wish I could have stopped time. They were so lovely and cuddly. I miss holding their hands when we walked.

I miss my twenties, when a lot of people really liked me.

I do wish I could go back to around the age of 15 and start doing things differently such as:
1. decide on a carreer and decide to go to college for it
2. stay in college and graduate while young
3. move out on my own without anyone and be alone for a few years b4 getting married.
4. not done some of the stupid things I’ve done in my past
