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!!

Over the border

Today, we made it into Queensland territory!!

I'm too tired to give you the rundown on today's travels, so with BGWLBH's help, we'll get you up to speed tomorrow.

It was a good day and we saw a lot and travelled some terrible roads, experienced some dreadful weather, heard some glorious birds calling, among other things.

We found this lovely little out-of-the-way stream with rock pools and running water ...


We are in Toowoomba and tonight we got a bite to eat and then went to the movies to see "August: Osage County" which was quite an intense movie, well acted and with many big names in it.

Now it's time to curl up in bed and hopefully sleep soundly for many hours.

Nite all.
