Grown ups struggle sharing feelings

"...and I'm so tired now, I picked up some cold in all that, and I just want to curl up with a romantic comedy and a pizza and sleep forever." - me, in a text to a friend.

I wanted to add "with you"

But I'm scared what he would say.

(Or not say)

Thing that won't get my mouth washed out with soap

Conversation with my friend:

Fun-der wear

I bought a big pack of cheap underwear so I didn't have to do laundry.

Yeah! THAT IS WHY I'M A GROWN-UP!

It's NOT a "lifestyle" change

Day 1 of diet number 3894...

I return home from work & doctor visit hungrier than I remember being. Ever. Still left on today's food allotment: all the "good" stuff. Yay me!

Also: I have big plans for my body, so I am dieting- not lifestyle changing. And after my plans- I'm eating all the things again!

Grown ups have clean sheets!

*CHANGE SHEETS HALF AS OFTEN WITH THIS LIFE HACK*

I had stopped using the flat, top sheet as an adult, just making my bed with the fitted bottom sheet and my comforter.  Years ago when my leg was broken, my wonderful cousins did my laundry and made my bed with both the bottom and top sheets.

I didn't want to undo their work and was tired enough to just crawl in bed- ON TOP OF THE TOP SHEET!!

See where I'm going with this?

Make your bed with both sheets. Sleep on top of the top sheet, when it's dirty or time, whatever, take the top sheet off and sleep on the clean bottom sheet!

*Adult with clean sheets here!!

STOP!!

I often have a plan or idea (or ideal). I like when my plans are awesome and work out perfectly.

BUT

I love being able to stop.

Being a grown up means we can change plans- MID PLAN! Not what you wanted? Try something else!

Sometimes I Just Want My Mom

Even as an adult, and being awesome a lot of the times, sometimes I just want my mommy.

But I got back on my bike and rode in the  Dead Baby Downhill, 

did two shots of tequila, and went home to two ice packs.
