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 291 in a Year of my Life

I have ten minutes ... I want to be in bed by 10pm and it is now 9.50pm.

Three glasses of wine tonight at the club.  Lamb shanks and mash, made with love, by Adoring Husband in the slow cooker.

So now, my belly is full and my head is buzzing a little with the wine.

I took photos today, but I haven't looked at them yet.

Tomorrow I hope to share some cool photos edited on the Cintiq ... which I now have the cable for, but even after three hours, know nothing more about how to use!!

Focus day tomorrow ... it's ALL going to happen tomorrow ... REALLY!

Today I am grateful for Chicklet phone calls and on-line catch-ups with friends who have been busy with life.

Nite all  (9.55pm!!)
