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 285 in a Year of my Life

Tonight we attended a triple birthday party for three male friends whose birthdays all fall inside a two week period.

I took some photos, but I only have one to share for now, because it's late.

This is my token offer...


There were lots of kids there tonight and lots of friends.

I had a nice time.

Today, I am grateful for cups of tea with gluten free banana bread and garden swings on a warm Winter's Saturday.

Nite all.
