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!!

Another Birthday

Happy Birthday to yewwwwww
Happy Birthday to yewwwwww
Happy Birthday dear Life Saverrrrrrrr
Happy Birthday to yewwwwww

Now, officially, at 65, an old fart :D

I ate the most delicious calamari meal at the club tonight ... it's the first time that I've enjoyed a meal in our town for at least a couple of years!  It was melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

It's almost midnight, so I'm sharing one photo from my time on the Sunny Coast, of two Red Backed Fairy Wrens - the male is the pretty one - and I think there was some flirting going on here!


... and now I'm off to bed.

Nite all.
