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 242 in a Year of my Life

Facebook share time again ...







... and my sister, Squirt, posted this with a panicked request wanting to know what sort of snake it was ....



Luckily it was just a harmless python and everybody convinced her to set it free.

She doesn't cope well with snakes, and those of you who know us, know why.

Today, I am grateful for my kids.  I spent most of my day on a Skype call with one, a phone call with another and multiple text messaging with the other.  It was a good day.

On a final note ...

Nite all.
