8. The things you cared to do, you don’t care to do, but you care that you don’t care to do them anymore.
9. Your husband sleeps better on a lounge chair with the TV blaring than he does in bed. It’s called his “pre-sleep”.
10. Remember when your mother said, “Wear clean underwear in case you GET in an accident”? Now you bring clean underwear in case you have an accident!

15. Now that you can afford expensive jewelry, it’s not safe to wear it anywhere.
