10. The whole weight loss thing.
My mother always used to say "watch what you eat, it will catch up with you someday." And of course as a tween, teen, and twenty-something you ignored every word of it. Until one day you look in the mirror and just say, damn she was right. I have come to the realization that I will never look like I did in my twenties, but I am not sure that is a bad thing:)
9. Discovering on a Friday night that you are yet again watching a rerun of The Big Bang Theory.
I, as much as the next person, LOVE this show so don't get me wrong, But that moment when you are sitting on the couch on a Friday night and watching yet another rerun kind of puts it in perspective. You are in a rut! Get your ass of that couch and do something!!!!!
8. The realization that your husband's hair is never growing back.
Ok, to be honest, my husband has never had hair:) love you honey.
7. All the conversations you encounter revolve around kids.
Babies, schools, sports, diapers, play dates, daycare, reading levels, achievements.
What ever happened to the conversation of who was screwing who and what bar we were going to? Or what classes we were taking, places we were going to travel, and dreams we were going to achieve.
6. You wear spanx to church.
This one I am so claiming and not as a bad thing. It may have taken me fifteen minutes to put the damn things on, but it was so worth it.
5. Buying stock in Tylenol and not because of hangovers.
My head hurts, my back is stiff, my knee is swollen, I pulled a muscle.....all from running a mile!
4. The discovery of "cracks" as my niece would say.
My niece Mia told my father he had cracks all over his face. I love this saying:) However, I have discovered that yes, I to have those same cracks developing.
3. To dye or not to dye that is the question.
My husband discovered some gray strands in my hair the other day. I always told myself that I would go gray naturally.......maybe.
2. Becoming a "morning" person.
When the hell did 5:00 am become the time to get up versus go to bed?
1. Never having enough time.
We always wanted time to speed up so that we could be free adults. Now that it is here, it seems like time goes to fast. There is not enough time in the day to accomplish all the work, not enough time in a weekend to hangout with friends, and not enough time in a year to make the moments count. I would now like to slow down time, rekindle friendships, and make each moment a memory to last a life time.
