Is this my midlife crisis?

Every once in a while I get the urge to sell my house in a HCOL area, move to some Podunk town in the Midwest or upstate NY and work at the local Starbucks or grocery store.

Anyone else get this urge to live a simple, boring life of a main character in a lifetime movie lol?

Millennials turning 40. How do you feel about it?

Millennials turning 40. How do you feel about it?

Personally, not into it. Doesn't seem logical but it's bothering me. I'll be 40 in two days. Took a four day weekend like I'm going to accomplish something... and I'm doing nothing other than a routine hair appointment, some hiking, and whatever my husband and kids come up with.

I don't have any major goals right now. I've been in a place where I'm letting myself live in the moment and enjoy day-to-day life without holding myself to unrealistic expectations.

I do feel like the first 30 years of my life were way harder than they should've been. I don't live in survival mode anymore but there's still a part of me that feels like a good 20 years was stolen from me and I need to make it up somehow. 40 feels like the start line for that but I have no idea what it looks like.

Call it a midlife crisis but I did make a reel proclaiming that I'm only 31 with 9 years experience. I feel minorly cool that I did such a thing being that I'm not a "cool" social media person ... but unsurprisingly it didn't help the fact that this weekend brings on 40.

End of rant.

Guilty!

I was thinking this afternoon that it’s probably been since OJ that a trial (and verdict) was so immediately at the forefront of the news. Or at least that’s how it feels to me.

I can remember being in high school when the OJ jury reached a verdict and we got to listen to it in the band room.
