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 262 in a Year of my Life

This is my last night in the Sunny Coast with my Chicklet family.

I had a great day with my little Chicklet today, while her Mama and Dadu went to the movies.  We had lots of walks and played at the park and watched Playschool and played with all the new toys.

She asked if she could come home with me tomorrow, which was nice, but I suspect it was more about riding the 'train' than actually being with me lol.

I will miss her, but I'll be back in the not too distant future of course.

I have no photos from today .. too busy being a grandmother.

No other news.

Today, I am grateful for time.  Time spent with my family and feeling the love.

Nite all.
