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 64 in a Year of my Life

I've been participating in December Photo a Day.

Here are some of my favourites for the month.

4. Black and White
9. Out and About
10. Under
12. Hat
15. Outdoors
19. Something beginning with 'S'
26. Mess
30. Something that made me smile this year.
I rarely answer my phone when it rings, because I always leave it in my camera bag or in my trike basket and I always keep the phone on 'silent'.  Often I will go looking for my phone at the end of the day and find messages, hours old, on it.

Today, I am grateful for voicemails.  Especially voicemails with Chicklet's voice in them!!

Nite all.
