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 269 in a Year of my Life

Another beautiful morning.

I attempted to pedal around town again, but seemed to bump into all sorts of people for long chats, so I got nowhere fast.

It was nice to catch up with those people, but I ran out of time for photography as the light changed after mid morning.

A photo from yesterday.


I'm pretty sure that this boat is here on holidays.  It was here last year at the same time and then disappeared.

It's beautifully made and I'm a bit besotted, so I expect to get a few photos over the next few days.  The tide will be very low tomorrow morning, so if I get up early enough for some nice light, I could get something special.

I've got a funny feeling that the weather might work against me .. if the weather forecasters are correct!  I know .. they are rarely correct these days.

Today I am grateful to finish updating this blog before midnight .. I'm off to bed!

Nite all.
