- having a job
- buying my own groceries
- having a debit card
- paying rent
- paying bills
- being in college
- buying a car/getting a loan
- having my own insurance
- paid vacations/sick days
These things seem like no big deal to me now. Here are things that make me feel super old now:
- Knowing I graduated from high school SEVEN years ago
- Knowing I graduated from college FOUR years ago
- Being married for almost a year
- Buying a house and paying a mortgage
- Seeing kids I used to babysit being teenagers/going to college
- My body hurts all the time-my knees creak every time I use the stairs -I know some of you might laugh,but a lifetime of sports has aged me :)
- My hobby is working in the garden
- Being ready for bed by 9pm, trying to be brave and make it to 10 since it is the weekend
- Everyone constantly asking me when I am going to have a baby...umm hello, since when did I stop being 16?!
- Going to YM/YW activities, not as a youth but as a leader (well Jon is a leader but I have to help sometimes.
I haven't had a lifetime of sports and my body hurts and my knees creak. Growing up isn't a bad thing, but it's not necessarily fun either.
