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!!

A bit of fun ...

If I don't have the time or the inclination to write a big post, you get facebook quotes, photos OR youtube presentations.

I really enjoyed this one and thought it worth sharing.



It's been raining since last night and has rained practically all day today.

Chicklet and I have been jumping in muddy puddles and searching (unsuccessfully) for frogs today.

We also had a trip to buy some new toys .. dinosaurs, crocodiles, turtles, frogs, lizards, books and a very large plush talking Wreckit Ralph!

Plenty of stories before bed tonight and now I hope to fall asleep to the sound of the rain.

Nite all.
