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 122 in a Year of my Life

I got to see some of my boys this morning.

Adoring Husband and I got coffee and then drove to the park where the temporary Seat of Knowledge is.  Only three of the boys were there but they were well.

Then I got to see my girls again.  I had returned home and forgot that it was Tuesday, our usual morning tea day at the 'local'.  So Adoring Husband drove me back for more coffee.

I got home just in time for the rain to start.  Again.

And then again.  And again.  *rolls eyes*

When will this weather end?????

Everywhere is flooded and the rain just keeps coming.

I would really like the weather to clear - just until our house is repaired.  After that, I will feel safe again, and the weather can do almost anything that it wants.  Note the word "almost".

Some more photos from the girlie weekend ...





It's almost the end of February.  That means that we are fast approaching the third month of 2013.  I swear,  the older I get, the faster time goes by.

Psychotic dogs are asking to go to bed.  Time for me to go too.

Nite all.
