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!!

Day 24 of a Year in my Life

Underwater World = AWESOME!

I am truly convinced that I was a marine animal/mammal in a previous life.

I feel most alive when I am near the water.

Today, walking through the underwater tunnel was one of the more emotional experiences in my life.  I struggled to hold back tears for much of it and I just didn't want to leave.

It made me feel so safe and secure, and brought such overwhelming joy, like it's where I was meant to be.

It's so weird that I am too afraid to swim in the ocean because of my fear of sharks, yet I felt so comfortable there today.

MAYBE!!!  Whatever I was in my previous life, got eaten by a shark!!  Ha!  lolol

I took heaps of photos today, but I'm saving them for another day, when I have time to go through all 350 of them properly.  I'll have so many photos to go through when I get home - you will be inundated!

Tomorrow we are off to the Maleny Dairy in the morning and then into Maloolaba for some window shopping and lunch.

Today, I am grateful for new educational experiences.  Even after 52 years of living on this earth, there is still so much to learn, to see and to do.


Adoring Husband and I learnt a LOT today.

Nite all.
