When Mel of Tweeded.com posted about how she came to realize that she’s a Nana of the 22nd Century, I totally identified with her. Over the past year or so, after finally moving out on my own and becoming more comfortable in my own skin, I slowly started realizing that I’m like an old lady. Let’s outline the ways that I’m older than my years:
+ -I’m always in nanny mode. I check the weather and warn friends/family to dress appropriately. I always carry around band aids in my wallet and usually have some sort of pain killers handy.
-My idea of a fun afternoon is thrifting and coffee with friends.
-My idea of a fun weekend night is dinner and game night with anyone that I can entice over.
-I’d rather entertain at home than go out. Dinner in a good restaurant is the exception.
-My subscriptions to design/craft/food blogs far outnumber any other type.
- I want to move out of our apartment so that I can have a garden and a craft room (or craft space).
-When I get my own craft space, I’m seriously considering taking up quilting, and knitting or crocheting.
-I plan my days around baking and trying out new recipes.
-I start off my day with a cup of coffee, and consider it a good day when I can end it off with a cup of hot chocolate.
-One of my favorite magazines is Martha Stewart.
Are you a modern day Nana at heart?
