18 Signs You're Growing Up


1. Drinking wine at home in the evenings and waving goodbye to the days of only drinking to get drunk. 

2.  Feeling as though your day has a massive gaping hole if it doesn't involve 234559595 cups of coffee or copious amounts of tea. 



3. 'I haven't had caffeine today' being a legitimate excuse for JUST ABOUT ANYTHING.

4. Kids. Wondering when and how many children you will have but at the same time seriously questioning your own fertility.

5. Wondering how you will ever afford a house filled with Laura Ashley and Cath Kidston decor, but not spending too much time worrying about it and hoping things will turn out for the best.



6. Worrying about when your metabolism will inevitably slow down, then having a 'fat week' and thinking it may have already happened.

7. A hangover from one night out is suddenly on the same level to how you felt after a week in Kavos.

8. Reading this poster with keen interest...



9. Crying over bills and checking your meter to make sure they're right. Knowing they are, but being convinced you're being conned out of £50 :(

10. Wondering how you ever went out seven nights in a row...or two...

11. Feeling nearly ready to learn about grown up things like mortgages and different kinds of bank accounts...nearly.

12. Saying YOLO and pretending to be a carefree teenager once more, but then worrying about it later.

13. Seeing your mum and dad as people rather than just parents and realising that they were once just like you but without Instagram and Twitter.

14. Realising your mum was always right...about EVERYTHING.

15. Still not sure how it's possible to be right about everything but hoping one day you can confuse your kids by having that super power too.

16. Suddenly wanting to bake cakes all the time and become the ultimate domestic goddess with Cath Kidston aprons and Nigella cookery books.



17. Seeing babies and thinking 'aw cute' instead of 'eugh gross'.

18. Knowing that despite all this, you're not grown up yet, which means you still have an excuse.
