Today is Saturday ... almost Saturday night, and my big plan is to sit in bed and begin watching the complete set of 'Friends' dvds on my trusty computer.
The Bare-chested Chef is cooking pumpkin, sage and walnut ravioli for dinner ... another healthful gastronomic delight and he and I just drove to the supermarket and stocked up on junk food so that we can all sit back, relax and enjoy a Saturday night 'IN', all doing our own thing and feeding our faces while we're at it!
It's perfect weather for this delightful pastime - very cool and raining outside. The clouds are low and thick around the mountains so that you can barely see where the sky and the mountaintops meet.
There are no outside parties happening because of the wet weather, so it's peaceful and quiet in the neighbourhood and the house is bursting with the aroma of roasting pumpkin and walnuts hmmhmm.
So today I am being selfish and self indulgent and leaving this very short Saturday post. I hope you all enjoy your Saturday night, whether it be 'IN' or 'OUT'.
Until tomorrow ... stay safe.
I'm lazy and selfish and spend too much time on the internet. I love to be creative with photography and jewellery and sketching with pencil and pastels. I'm happier now than I have ever been and I love everything about my life ... where I live, my home, my fantastic grown up children, my lifestyle, my friends, my dogs and last but not least my wonderful adoring husband. Life is good!
Nice to see you!
Three major events occurred for me last year (2010), all in the space of about 2 weeks. I turned 50. The following day I got married. Two weeks later, my oldest daughter became pregnant with her first child and my first grandchild.
Most middle-aged people will tell you that in their minds, they still feel 20 something. It's the same for me.
Wasn't it only yesterday that I was planning a night out with guys from the surf club? That gorgeous new perm. Flaired, cuffed denims and the red t-shirt with the off-the-shoulder frill. Corked platform wedgies. **sigh**
Suddenly I'm looking in the mirror and wondering how 30 years can flash by so damned quickly!
So here I am in cyberspace, sharing my genuine shock and horror with anyone who'll listen and maybe I'll even meet some other over 50s who find themselves in the same predicament!
Welcome to my dilemna!!
