I'm old.
I have found myself excited that we are staying home tonight. Wait, not just excited, but relieved. I don't have to go anywhere, I actually sighed with relief.
Truthfully, when Kevin said we didn't have to go out tonight with the fam, I nearly shouted "I LOVE YOU!" to him over the phone.
Now I can clean the house! I can do laundry! I won't have chores to do all weekend!
How sad is that?
Earlier today, I turned down dinner with a friend (sorry J!) Whereas when I was younger, I would have been all over it. I would have gone to dinner AND cleaned the house.
Back in the Day, I would get off work and go home on Friday night just to clean up. Then I would go to friend's houses as a preamble. Dinner always seemed to take care of itself somehow. Be it the McDonald's drive-thru or appetizers at the bar/restaurant. Then it was dancing & hanging out until late then often back to friends houses.
Instead it was take-out Chinese food and puttering around the house. It's not quite 7:30 and I'm longing for the couch.
Before I know it, it will be the early bird special and falling asleep watching the news...the six o'clock news!
We'll go out next Friday...I can't be that old yet. Just today.
You missed the soup!
