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 77 in a Year of my Life

New Years Resolution for 2013 "To become a little healthier and fitter".

Rule number one for bringing this to fruition:

DO NOT DRINK A BOTTLE OF WINE IN ONE SITTING.

Rule number two for bringing this to fruition:

THINK BEFORE YOU EAT AND DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY EAT GLUTEN.

Had a fabulous time with The Nikonian and surely all that laughter, that is so good for the soul, negated some of the toxins that I ingested?!

The psychotic dogs decided that she was OK ...


We missed the sunrise this morning and after The Nikonian left, I spent the rest of the day trying to recover.

Lots of water.  Some sleep.  Some food.  Some Panadol.  Plenty of rest.

Today I am grateful that the day is over and I am feeling less toxic this evening, than I did this morning.  I am grateful for the lesson learned - everything in moderation and pace yourself!

Nite all.
