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 60 in a Year of my Life

I'm very happy to announce that Adoring Husband's mother is doing very nicely, has no injuries and has returned to the nursing home.  She's a tough old bird!

Thanks for asking :)

Boxing Day = Test Cricket, Sydney to Hobart Yacht race and the Dr Who special to begin the new series = Happy Adoring Husband.

More Tawny Frogmouth photos = Happy ME :)




and my favourite photo that I took this year (submitted for the end of year flickr challenge) ...


Today I'm grateful for two re-runs of 'Friends' that I watch every night before I go to bed.  They send me to bed with a smile on my face.

So, I wake up every morning and spend time at the Seat of Knowledge for smiles to start my day and then watch late night episodes of Friends to end my day with a smile.

Simple but effective.

Nite all.
