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 Little Job

Just a quick one tonight.

Adoring Husband spent the afternoon mounting five photos in some cheap frames so that I can display them on the bakery wall here in town.

He did a great job.

While he did that, I was doing another photo restoration.

Before ...


After ...


It took more than an hour to do this one.  I can understand why they charge so much to restore photos!  It's not easy and it's time consuming.

At least I'm getting paid for this one ... a token price ... but that's ok :)

Nite all.
