Some Things Do Change

Well, yesterday in the late afternoon and evening I had a splitting headache.  I very rarely get headaches, and never bad ones.  The only other time in my life I had a 'bad' headache was a year ago November.  To make a long story short this was caused by an infected tooth and I had my first root canal.  Back to the headache last night, the few times in my life I get headaches if I go to bed they are always gone in the morning.  So, last night I went to bed early to get rid of the headache.  I slept horribly and even got up the middle of the night with such a bad head ache that I came downstairs to get tylenol.  In the morning it was not gone.  The headache was on the right side of the head and it hurt in my gum line...so I decided to call the dentist instead of the doctor.  They got me in this morning at 10:15, he looked at my teeth and said my back wisdom tooth was infected and needed to come out.  So I had no plans today when I woke this morning and now I have one less tooth in my mouth. It sucked.  It hurt.  I have never had a tooth pulled before.  As I was driving home I started thinking that I was old.  I can't believe I am old enough to have so many teeth problems.  Root canal last year and pulled tooth this year.  I really just felt old.  I guess with not being able to have children, therefore, not being a mom I still felt kind of young.  All my friends have children and they seem so grown up to me and lots of them are younger than me but seem older.  I still sleep in till 10 on the weekends (and sometimes during the week).  But, today I felt old.  Just to make myself feel better, I thought of some funny things that have changed since I was younger and most of them involve food. 


*I use to hate onions and now I love them!
*I use to hate tomatos and now they are my favorite food
*I would rather stay home than anything else, tell my younger self this and she would laugh.  I use to never be home.  That is probably why I have lost friends over the years.....because I use to always be over at their house and now that I want to be in my own house they don't want to come over because they want to be at their own house (confusing writing, I know)
*I am a football fan and never use to be one.
*Don't tell my husband this because he might stop helping me, but sometimes I like to clean.  I like to put my sweats on, turn the music up, and have a clean house when I am done.
*I stand up for things I think and want and I am LESS of a doormat.  (just less, I am not all the way cured)

What are someways you are different now that you are older?
