Yes, I'm A Millennial Grandma

Are you hungry? Do you want a peppermint?

Yes, I'm A Millennial Grandma

My whole life I have always been told that I am an old soul. From the music I listen to, the clothes I wear and my mothering of others I completely agree with that label. I like to have things neat and color coded. If I see someone else's work who is not I feel the urge to organize it myself. So many times friends have told me about their crazy weekends or past crazy moments and I find myself responding with an "are you crazy, that really could have ended badly!" or "what would your mother say?" It is just who I am, a grandma for life. Are you a young-old person too?

1. If you want it, I have it.

If you want a peppermint or cough drop, I have it. Tissues or germ-X, I have that too. Whatever you want chances are I have it my purse. That is also why my purse is the size of a suitcase.

2. I am always cold. No, really.

No matter where I am I am in a sweater. As I am writing this I am wearing a sweater and slippers and it is currently 92 degrees. Most of the time I don't even turn the air on in my car.

3. If you gave something to me, chances are I still have it.

I may not know where it is but i guarantee you that I have it, Including birthday cards.

4. If you seem sad or angry, I assume it is because you're hungry.

In which I then hand you a gingerbread cookie, which I keep in my purse.

5. My biggest celebrity crush is Cary Grant.

The picture says it all!

6. I have "old lady" perfume.

I love it. My meme uses Chantilly and I LOVE the smell


7. I know how to crotchet.

If you ask me nicely, I will probably crochet you a sweater.


8. I am the "mom" friend.

I am the friend who tells you what you do not want to hear. I will tell you that boy is no good, and is trouble. If you want a "mom" opinion and yours can't be reached, I am your girl.

9. Frank Sinatra is my life.

"Come fly with me, lets fly lets fly away" It's my ringtone and favorite song. I can listen to mr. Sinatra all day everyday. It is my happy place.


10. I watch the news every morning and every night.

I start my mornings with the news and end it that way. I like staying informed. i like to know exactly what is happening within the world at all times.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
