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 247 in a Year of my Life

I have family here for the next 4-5 days, so my posts will probably be short and posted late, which, come to think of it, is no different to how my posts have been for a while now!

It's really lovely to have them here anyway :)

I can't believe that the time is already after 12.30am.  I have to be awake reasonably early in the morning and there will be no watching Wimbledon tonight!

For day 3 of the July Photo a Day challenge, the theme is 'Cold' ...


Tomorrow's theme is Red, White OR Blue.  Hmmm nothing jumps into my head straight away.  Might have to sleep on that one.

Today I am grateful for happy, energetic extended family who breeze into my life every so often and help me feel the love.

Nite all.
