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!!

A Brief Summary of the Day


Played golf with Woman of Many Talents and we were happy with our efforts.

Arrived home in time to bid farewell to Adoring Husband for the week.

Took photos in the garden instead of doing the housework.  Mixed feelings.  Happy with the photos.  Disappointed with my lack of effort in the 'housework' department.

Especially for my arachnophobic Adoring Husband (sorry darling)
Made the effort to go out tonight - first time in a long time.  Had a good time with the girls.

Had a slapdash cold chicken and wombok salad for dinner and then watched the football.  Disappointing results - none from two so far!

Going to bed early so that I can rise early for Adoring Husband's work tomorrow, which I agreed to do while he's away.

... and that, my friends, is a brief summary of my day. :D

Nite all.
