Growing Old Together

This is a thing.

Everyone that proposes in spectacular fashion, in flash mobs, at weddings, they all say "I want to grow old with you"

Very romantic

But, they have no idea.

Growing old together, yes, it's lovely.

It means  that you are not the only person who is a bit mad.

This is our morning conversation.

Every day

Doesn't matter who says what..it's interchangeable...

What day is it?

Wednesday.

No, can't be Wednesday, last night was American life. 

Must be Tuesday..

Tuesday? Wasn't it Great British Bake Off. Last night?

No, it was Downton Abbey.

Must be Monday?

Day established.....

What date is it?

24th? 27th

Dr Lauren was here on Thursday, what date was that?

( I count on my fingers , The Hubby  counts  in his head)

Once we have established the day and date...

How did you sleep?

Now, there is a competition to see who slept worse.

I woke up at 3

You were snoring

I was hot

You were taking up the whole bed

I had a nightmare ( going into detail if dream was interesting)

Needed to pee

You left a light on

You didn't bring water upstairs

Ah! The Romance! 

But, best to be old together.

On your own, this would truly be a bit mad.
