Reasons I am Glad I am not 20
Woman in the Middle | April 27, 2012While I didn’t really love turning the big 5-0 on my last birthday, having two daughters in their early 20s does remind me on a daily basis what it is like to be that age and I have no desire to go back. Here is why:
1. Living at home with Mom and Dad (even if Mom is wonderful me!).
2. Trying to find the right guy, which means kissing a lot of frogs.
3. That special hell that is studying for and taking college midterms and finals.
4.That other special hell that is writing college papers.
5. Never never never enough money.
6. Trying to find a job, including the part-time job while in college or the real job once you’ve graduated.
7. Worrying about what life will be bringing.
Of course, each phase of life has its own special and crazy aspects. Right now I am in that “worrying about my young adult children and my retirement at the same time” phase. But it is still better than midterms and finals!
