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 53 in a Year of my Life

Just thought I'd share some of my old photos that are currently stored on flickr.

I know that one of these goes all the way back to 2008!!

It was a lazy day today.  I spent my morning at the Seat of Knowledge and I got my hair done at the hairdressers after I missed last weeks appointment!

We ordered our seafood for Christmas day.

Adoring Husband and I napped on the couch this afternoon - quite uncomfortable really lol.

Today, I am grateful for lazy days that allow us to wind down, relax and rejuvenate.  It has been a busy busy year and we are now officially in hibernation - in preparation for what the new year has in store for us.

Tomorrow I will work on a post to recap 2012 I think!

Nite all.
