Growing Up

Do you ever simultaneously wish that you were and weren’t a grown up?

I love the freedom of making my own decisions and earning my keep. But yet… I’m not really free…

I realize that these thoughts usually come to me on Sunday nights when I’m preparing myself mentally for work on Monday….

Or when I’m paying bills…

Or when I’m doing something I don’t want to do that involves the real life…

I just want to bury my nose in a book. Make myself some tea. Go for a run. Grow my own tomatoes.

Sometimes I wonder if this is how I’m going to feel like for the rest of my life… or if one day I’m going to finally grow up.
