So we went to Kohl's to look for a gift for his sister and while we were there I was browsing at some snowmen plates and platters that were 70% off and was pondering getting one for me and one for Josh's mom. I was picking it up and then putting it back then picking it up again obviously trying to decide if I was gonna buy it or not and this woman just blurts out to me oh hunny just buy it and tell your husband its a gift for yourself Merry Christmas lol.
I sorta laughed then put the plate back down and didn't buy it (trying to save $ here) but then thought...I don't have a husband...wonder why she thought I did.
Then at work last week I was giving a campus tour to an interview candidate and he asked so how many kids do you have? I jokingly answered oh a couple hundred (referring to the students I work with)
I guess I just don't feel like a grown up or feel like I look like a grown up at all. I think sometimes I still feel 17 years old for example I can not wait to go "home" for Christmas and just hang out with my mom.
Will there ever be a day that I feel "grown up"? I obviously am 26 years old can have a husband and children just don't even feel remotely ready for either of those things right now in life?
Has anyone else felt that way?? Is there a day, a moment, an occasion where you start to feel "grown up"?
I am 25 and married and talking babies with my husband and i still feel like a teenager. i even wrote a post about it a few months back called "Perpetual Teenager"
ReplyDeleteI don't feel like I will ever stop feeling like the uncool teenager no matter how many adult things I do and face in life.
If that feeling ever comes, let me know, because so far. I am 16 in my mind and always younger than everyone around me... even when I'm not.
