Well, one netizen was curious to hear from Generation X, now that they are all firmly into adulthood, what activities, experiences, and things they discovered that they actually liked. So bookmark this article if you have skeptical children, otherwise, get comfortable as you scroll, be sure to upvote your favorite “things” and comment your thoughts below.
When you get all your errands/chores done during the week so you can spend the weekend doing nothing is what I live for. Great feeling.
Just wait, you haven’t felt the satisfaction or excitement at getting a *good* pair of socks for Christmas or your Birthday, yet. It’s on par with a quality pillow or super soft bed sheets.
The knew I fully settled into my forties when I was so excited about how well my steam mop cleaned my kitchen tile floor.
I found my favorite garbage bags at the store today. Bought all three packages they had because I’m bitter they were out the last couple times I was there. I had to use a different brand and that’s unacceptable.
Yep. I’ve got an excursion planned with a friend to go scope out a new grocery store that opened in my neighbourhood 🙂 apparently it’s really awesome! 😉
When I was a teenager, my parents were like “Get in the car. We’re going to Costco today” and I couldn’t think of anything more boring.
These days, I can’t think of a better way to spend Saturday.
We deep cleaned the main floor of the house together yesterday. That was so exciting I went and started cleaning the basement while he did laundry and watched football.
Made spaghetti and went to bed at 8:15.
Day 2 of Wisconsin monsoon season, I’ll be in my sewing room ALL day.
Going to Costco wit the masses on a weekend really is a risky venture. I’m suddenly at the age where I’d rather venture out after work so I don’t have to deal with so many people.
I stayed home last night and did my laundry. If you told me 20 years ago that I would have been happy about staying home and doing laundry on a Saturday night, I would have looked at you like you had two heads.
One of the most exciting things I’ve experienced in the last year was getting a new shower for my home. It is like showering in a nice hotel now. Lol
As I get older, I love to get up and put super early. Less of a crowd. Best pick of everything, and of course, home before 2:00 to relax.
On Fridays at the gas station by my work has fresh burritos. They don’t have many and it’s a personal victory if I get there in time to get one.
Yesterday I found out there is a discount Stoffers store about an hour away. I am tickled pink to go get discount lasagna next weekend.
I am shopping for a new raincoat to wear. The weather has been rainy this year and I have has the same coat since 2003.
Then I am going to wear it when I drive to a nice beach to meet my special friend, walk on it and then buy a cup of coffee.
Busy weekend plans 🙂 I also have my book club book as an audio book to listen to. Don’t know when I will find the time.
