Bottomless mimosas, there was a recent ‘incident’ with my friends and I at brunch. We looked like 21yr olds leaving the club, not a good look lol.
Yes! My friends and I had an “incident” with them about 8 years ago and I met one of these friends for brunch last week for the first time in yeeeears (we live on opposite coasts) and she asked if I wanted to go somewhere with bottomless drinks. I was like, do you not remember what happened the last time we did this?? Lol.
Family vacations with young children. (Said as we drive up to Breck for the week. Lol)
I’m joking kind of.
Don’t say this, we are driving to Maine for a week as we speak! 🤣
Lol! I’m sure you’ll have a great time. Your kid is at a good age for it. Very toteable.
I just always build these trips up in my mind and they never end up being as relaxing as I want them to be. The kids whine. They get bored. But we brought electronics for them so we can sit on the condo patio and drink and there will be lots of water and parks and stuff like that, so hopefully we’ll all get to have a good time. 😊

If it’s with kids we call it a trip, not a vacation 😆

Ha, yes! We do the same. Family trip, not family vacation. I’m hoping we’ll eventually get to a point where it will feel like a vacation even with the kids.

This will probably be unpopular and I swear I love animals…
Getting a pet.
They are a huge commitment and expense. I know a lot of people who stress about finding vacation pet sitters or have huge vet bills, no to mention the daily times and chores involved.
The same could be said for kids 😂
Growing your own food. I know a lot of people who started gardens and spent a lot of money for a small harvest like 2 tomatoes, or they don’t have the right amount of sun or time to maintain it and everything died. Fruit trees attract a lot of bugs.
Also I think moving to a “low cost of living” place just because “wow! I can get a huge house for the price of a tiny condo here” - anyone I know who has done this, though they would never admit it, seem like they were happier before.
I think if you move for other reasons like closer to family, or a particular lifestyle Etc it’s probably great to enjoy that low cost of living. But many people seem to do it just for the giant house and then they are just in the middle of nowhere, in a giant house.
