You know you're old when.....

Sorry I had to do one of these posts since I REALLY felt old this weekend.  So....here it goes (sorry no pics for this one).

You know you're old when............

*You have a weekend free of kids & a two day getaway planned AND use half the time to clean your house

*You take off to the "big city" for a night and end up in your hotel room, in bed and asleep at 10:00

*You see the grandma's in sneakers with their dress clothes and you in heels and think.....well aren't I a dumb one

*You don't bring PJ's on purpose and are ticked at yourself you didn't (some fleece PJ's would have been nice)

*You are making fun of all the ladies out in their short skirts and no jacket (I guess that is ALSO when you know you are smart :)

A little background for you:  Me and the hubby decided to give each other a getaway for our Christmas present.  Life with three kids has just been a little much for us lately and we REALLY needed the break.  So we decided to go stay in Downtown Salt Lake for a couple nights.  Get a hotel room.....visit the lights.....see the sights.....eat some good food....drink some wine.  

Friday rolls around and the house is a mess, we haven't packed, we have a Christmas party to attend; so we decided instead of throwing the money away on a room for the night (getting there at midnight) we would sleep at home and go up early......of course that didn't happen.  After getting to be (around 2:00 am) We woke up early and decided to clean the ENTIRE house spic-n-span (this can never be done with three kids running around).  This left us EXHAUSTED and arriving in town just in time to eat some dinner and crash!  

Needless to say not the most romantic or exciting of our getaways; but sometimes all you need is some sleep and if you have to get a hotel room to get it, so be it :).  

One week till Christmas! You all ready?
