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!!

Lazy Day

I woke up this morning to find that it was raining and the temperature had dropped by ten degrees.

What a relief.

I opened the bedroom windows so that I could lay in bed and listen to it.  It had that lovely fresh rain smell.

When I finally ventured out of bed, I felt decidedly lethargic.

I cooked up a big breakfast of bacon, eggs and tomato, hoping to find some energy to cook in the kitchen, but alas it didn't happen, so I spent the day on the couch, watching dvds and dozing on and off.

I've just been playing with some old photos ...




Now I'm watching the end of an old movie made in 1932 - Grand Hotel.

Tomorrow I hope to have regained my energy, because I have big plans for the kitchen!

Nite all.
