This may seem like an odd post title for Father's Day. But I was thinking today about a conversation I had recently with my mom. We took a little road trip to Southern California to visit my grandparents and we were talking about being an adult. She told me she felt like she was pretending until she was almost 50. And that makes me feel better, in some ways, because I know that I am not the only one who feels like I am just playing at being a grown up - okay, paying all those bills today was definitely not pretend - and that others feel just as lost as me sometimes. But I do feel like I need to "play" better. So that remains my goal - be smarter with my money, work more diligently, keep my house clean(er), and do all the things that I should be doing even though I don't want to.
