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 38 in a Year of my Life

S O   H O T!!

Today, my iphone weather app told me that it was 32 degrees.  I could have sworn it was hotter and I kept looking at the app, waiting for the temperature to rise.  It didn't.

Then the news this evening reported that it was 38 degrees here today!  I KNEW IT!!

I've been trying to think about what to write in tonight's post, but my mind is blank.

I received an email from Fergies wife an hour ago telling me that he lost his battle and passed away on Saturday.

I'm sad, but I am grateful that Fergie is no longer suffering.  May he rest in peace.

Nite all.
