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 226 in a Year of my Life.

The high point of the sunset, was that it happened on the change of tide while it was low, so the light reflected beautifully on the still water.



I had hoped to share lots of knowledge today.  I'd hoped to spend a lot of time watching tutorials and learning heaps about photoshop and practising on my photos and then sharing them here.

I'd planned a whole day in self imposed solitary confinement.  I was going to be focussed and my workload was going to be intense.

My day, instead was a run of interruptions, and I didn't get longer than 30 minutes running to focus on anything.

Also, because today was a public holiday, something photography-related, that I was expecting in the mail, won't be here til tomorrow, so that was a bit disappointing too.

So I have no new knowledge to share and only a couple of sunset photos.  Ah well.

Today, I am grateful (really) for friends and loved ones, who interrupt my planned days of solitary confinement, because I know that they care about me.

Nite all.
