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!!

My Day at School

BGWLBH had to go to work today to tidy up a few loose ends before officially starting her Long Service Leave.

So I took the opportunity to wander around and get some schoolie shots.






Those are just a few shots taken in the classroom (obviously not the bird photo) while I waited.

We visited her Mum and filled two bags full of veggies from her garden.  We tried to visit her Dad in hospital, where he was admitted this morning, but they wouldn't allow us in yet.  So we headed out to the Lake to get some sunset shots.





Pretty amazing range of colours for one sunset hey?

I really need to get to bet earlier - these 1.30 am sleep times are beginning to wear me down!

Enjoyed my day at school, saying hi to some of the other teachers who I haven't seen for a while, but it's now the end of my day.

Nite all.
