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!!

Better Attitude

Today was a better day.

I got a hair cut.

I didn't cook.

OB (the cockatiel) had a quiet day.

We had a lucky table at the club tonight (congratulations Lady Lynn!)

Adoring Husband won a frozen chicken, but when we got home and read the ingredients list - who'da thunk there could be so much rubbish in a frozen chook!

The ingredients list was about 15 items long and included sugar and preservatives and numbers and was only 82% chicken ... 18% other crap.  No good for us.  Disappointing.

We also won a $15 voucher for the local supermarket ... that's always handy!

I also have a keno ticket in my purse that could possibly be lucky.

Now there is rain, lots of rain, heading in our direction.

No photos to share and no other news ... besides ... it's Friday ... and you know how I am on Fridays.

Nite all.
