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!!

Almost Famous

Well, my fifteen minutes of fame commences as of tomorrow.

The town Newsletter was published and issued today, with our photos and story on page three.  Woot Woot!

My photos arrived from the Sunshine Coast after being printed by my friend down there and they look so much better than I expected.  I am very pleased and it's a weight lifted from my shoulders.  Now I only have 50 more to print, which we'll do this week.

Will take a couple of the odd sized ones to the gallery this week to make sure they have frames to fit them.

I still have to organise the postcards eep!

Need to write a blurb about myself so that the patrons can read about me.

Falling into place nicely now I think.

Played in photoshop a bit this afternoon.




I can't imagine ever knowing all there is to know about it.  Every time I open it, I find something new.  I need to sit with someone 'in the know' (you know who you are! lol).

That's all I'm sharing for today.  Off to bed for yet another early night.

Nite all.
