I went to a party on Saturday night. It was a housewarming party for one of my very best friends in the world! Her new house is gorgeous -- I got to see my core group of best friends from high school. We got to reminisce and laugh. The BEST part about them is the laughter. I laugh till I cry -- then laugh some more. This week I've been left with a very sad feeling. I can't believe we're all grown up with jobs, houses, cars, kids. It seems like just yesterday we were getting ready to go to high school, getting ready to graduate...heading off to college...where have the years gone??
It doesn't help that I am one year closer to leaving my 20's. I turn 29 on August 26th. I don't feel that grown up!

Thanks ladies! I am very happy with where I am, but surprised that so much time has passed.
I am lucky because I do have wonderful friends with whom I am still close. We're just a little older and more seasoned now!
Nancy, you are RIGHT -- I, in no way shape or form would want to be 17 again. Well, maybe I'd take the ability to show off a bikini...LMAO!

Sounds like you had a well-deserved and much earned wonderful time on Saturday night, Good for you!!!
ReplyDeleteAND---you're worried about leaving your 20'S behind, mine are so far behind, I don't know where they are!!! Now that's sad!! But, believe it or not, the older you get, the BETTER you get and don't let any man tell you otherwise!!! Ha Ha!
Take it easy and don't sweat the, well, I won't say the number, I don't want to get you all depressed or anything!
Love, Grammie
Leaving your 20's isn't all that bad Angela. I won't sugar coat it though, when I turned 31...well let's just say there was some mourning going on :P
ReplyDeleteIt is hard realizing that you and everyone you know is so grown up. But when you really stop and think about it, who wants to be 17ish again anyway...I for one don't. Not to mention that I look around me and am in awe with what I have now compared to when I was a teenager. You have that wonderful little man afterall. And he wasn't in your life so many years ago right?
And besides, it could be worse...we could be turning 40 LOL
HEY--There's nothing wrong with turning 40 or even--NO, I'm not going to go there!!!
