Here we go!
1. You spend your birthdays telling your friends you haven’t
quite decided exactly where you’re thinking of celebrating when you know full
well you plan to be in bed by 9:30p.m. and you really cannot afford to be
eating cake at this age.
2. You realize that there’s no such thing as overfilling the
Brita pitcher. The filtered water actually comes out first allowing the rest to
filter through before drinking. (Glad I didn’t call my husband at work after
all to complain about that).
3. You spend countless hours researching trendy calorie burning
workouts and 25-minute full body circuits only becoming too tired to actually
do any of them.
4. You consider setting your alarm for 7:00 a.m. a treat but
lets face it, you will already be up when it sounds.
5. On Tuesday, you foresee your Saturday night as a
glamorous, club-hopping, champagne popping extravaganza. Instead, it ends up as
a night of Facebook and Instagram where you live vicariously through the
twenty-somethings you once were.
6. Making dinner is like doing your homework. If you don’t
do it, you may not be punished but someone will be ‘disappointed.’ If you try to hurry it, it’s just a big
ol’ mess. If you avoid it all together, you will have twice as much to do the
following day.
7. One drink with a heavy pour is not the start of the ‘best
night ever’ it’s an early end because you have to make it through the
drive-thru before it closes.
8. You wonder what other breakfast items exist besides
toast.
*9. People constantly remind you that you have no children
yet no one congratulates you on not getting pregnant in your teens.
* Some of the most amazing people I know have had children in their teens, whose kids are also pretty amazing. I just think I should receive an award because I like awards.
The best thing about life after 30 is that you have an excuse ...
....... to need a daily latte (or two).
HAPPY FRIDAY!
