Things I do not miss:
- Wearing a bra every day
- Managing my curls every day
- Going into the office every day
- Sitting in commuting traffic five days a week
- Going to the grocery store (different than Costco)
- Rushing around in the morning trying to get things done before going to work
Hmm. Most of these are work-related.
