So....this is how a visibly older woman such as myself displays her Christmas cards:
What better way to remind myself that even though I am old and worn and leathery, I still have my friends.
Get off my lawn!

Get carded
(True story: I have not been carded in like a year. I'm 27, so this should surprise no one. But, when I do get carded (on those rare occasions when the waitress is either drinking herself or her manager is eagle-eyeing her), I almost want to thank the server for mistaking me for a younger version of myself. (But I don't because that's something dorky old people do and I might be old, but I'm still hip and down with it, as I think the kids say.) I'm old and clearly, all those late nights and very full red party cups becoming very empty very fast are showing.)
Moving on!

The sign is one I picked up at Gordmans years ago in an after-Christmas sale (for $6! I'm thrifty and old. I'm the next Sophia Petrillo.). I use clothes pins to stick cards to it and it builds as we get closer to Christmas.

When I was living in a house at 24, I did yell at the neighbor kids to get off my yard...I just had to laugh at myself. Now I'm 27 living in a rental with a friend and all I want are the neighbor kids to come scoop my friggin driveway! I'd pay them to be on my lawn now :)
ReplyDeleteI am 31. I don't really get that excited when I get carded, though. I just like it when I look in the mirror and still see the 25 year old me looking back! Ok, plus 15 pounds. Whatever!
