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!!

Oh the pain!

Yes, I am still in pain ... not as much pain as yesterday, however, it is still uncomfortable and I struggle to get out of a chair, or climb the stairs!!

Ugh!

I thought I was reasonably fit and I am very surprised that we are hurting so much.

Anyway, it's after midnight, so here are a couple of photos to fill some space ... the two most loved granddaughters on the planet.

Mine ...


and The Nikonian's


One of these days soon, I hope to find the time and the energy to write about the weekend and the 'wedding photography' experience.

Every photographer should experience it at least once in their lifetime.

Intense.

Nite all.
