As a parent of two, a working professional and actively engaged in the community, it seemed like I was admirably handling everything all the time. Not so true, I realized one fine morning in my early forties!
You know you are over the hill when…
you wake up before the alarm rings 🌄
make two school lunches 🍝
as you sip coffee & put away the dishes,
see off the older and check on the blissful younger,
then write a check for the school fundraiser 💰
get ready for work, pack up your laptop
check on your ID Card,
then as you sit in the car 🚘
and press the POWER button
wondering why it feels hard
only to realize…
this isn’t your fancy new contraption
but hubby’s old car that needs a key
in the ignition!!

Its step before I sit in the car. With hubby’s car you need a key to open the car!! What a travesty 🙂
Good one!! Nicely depicted!
