30s are the new 20s?

Now that I’ve finished up my first year of being in my 30s, I’ve begun to notice that my tastes and actions have become way more ‘adult-like.’ Not sure if this is a good or a bad thing…..but I’m trying to embrace it the best I can!

20s: Single tall vanilla 1% latte OR a super fancy flavored mocha with whipped cream. I liked ’em sugary and sweet!
30s: Triple grande americano with two ‘Sugar in the Raw’ and a splash of cream OR a french press in a pinch. Less calories, more caffeine. I’m officially addicted.

20s: Driving way too fast and aggressive. You’d think I was a race car driver.
30s: Driving a bit too slow. Cruisin’ the right hand lane more often and disliking driving at night or in bad weather.

20s: Consume, consume, consume. Closet out of control…clothes for days. Who cares if I only wear it once? I LOVE SHOPPING.
30s: Less is more. De-clutter. Looking at what’s most flattering for my body. Paying a bit more for quality items. But, I still LOVE SHOPPING 🙂 That will never change…..

20s: Gimme all the technology I can get! Facebook, Twitter, iphone, laptops, Kindle, Pinterest, Instagram. Gotta be connected at all times and document every thing I do. Maj brain stress!
30s: I need a tech timeout. Starting to disconnect more, especially on the way home. Brain feels way less stressed 🙂

20s: Diet, exercise then diet some more. Counting every little piece of food consumed.
30s: Exercise, exercise, exercise. Goal is to stay active and MOVE. Walking lots more. Gym time is flexible. No food monitoring.

Have you noticed any changes in your behaviors/actions/tastes during a milestone birthday year??? Do you feel like an ultra-adult person these days like I do?

It’s Party Time!

As in Valentine’s Day Blogging Party Time! I had a great time getting to know my secret Valentine gal pal, Megan, via the internetz. Her blog is full of lovely photographs, her amazing crochet work and most importantly, her family (including the furry ones!) I thought it was sorta fun to be paired with someone who is literally on the opposite corner of the country. Hello Florida!

Now, onto the good stuff! Megan must have sensed my crafty side and endulged me in a ton-o-supplies including paper, tags and stickers all put into a fun re-usable tote. You can never have too many totes! And come on, those tags are right down my aisle (especially the ‘I Need’ one…hehehe).

 

Thank you Megan for the thoughtful gifts and thank you to these lovely ladies below for setting this up! It was a great way to virtually meet someone whose blog I might never come across. I can’t wait to participate in another one of these blogger exchanges!
