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 319 in a Year of my Life

I have had a very 'liquid' day today.

Warm lemon water to start the day.

A berry smoothie for breakfast ... blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, banana, organic full cream milk, honey, coconut oil and ice.

Soup for lunch ... zucchini, mushroom and cauliflower soup with a tablespoon of sour cream stirred through.

Dinner tonight consisted of sunflower and chia seed, gluten free toast with avocado and tomato and another with raw honey.  Leftover berry smoothie afterwards.

All nutritious and healthy and sugar free.

However, I DID have 2 glasses of wine tonight and they have gone straight to my head!

I took photos of my deliciously pink smoothie today, but I haven't looked at the photos yet .. perhaps I will share them tomorrow.

Today I'm grateful for kisses from SEB (Someone Else's Bird) who kisses my lips through the bars of the bird cage.  So cute.

Nite all.
