Chicklet time is wonderful and fun and joyful and educational and silly and exhausting!
We read stories and jumped over string and watched movies and played catch with Mike the Monster.
I was a horse while Chicklet climbed on my back for a ride around the lounge room. I was a tiger with a tiger tail and mask, while Chicklet wore a dinosaur tail ever so briefly.
The dinosaurs didn't get much of a look in today. Bunny rabbits and monsters were the choice of toys.
Games on the ipad filled in time while Bozzy Wozzy rested.
We've got another big day planned for tomorrow and I hope that I can get some nice happy photos of her.
Meanwhile, tonight, I played with some photos from the weekend.
Today I am grateful to have found a coffee shop nearby that sells delicious coffee and I am grateful that my body is holding out while Chicklet pushes me to my physical limits - which admittedly aren't that strong to begin with! Perhaps I will leave here stronger and fitter!
Nite all.
I'm lazy and selfish and spend too much time on the internet. I love to be creative with photography and jewellery and sketching with pencil and pastels. I'm happier now than I have ever been and I love everything about my life ... where I live, my home, my fantastic grown up children, my lifestyle, my friends, my dogs and last but not least my wonderful adoring husband. Life is good!
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!!
