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!!

Home Coming

No photos today.

I spent quite some time out on the trike this afternoon and got myself a touch of sunburn!

I took my hat off because it was so windy.  I thought I would lose it because it's quite loose fitting.

I wasn't expecting to be out on the beach for so long, but the White Breasted Sea Eagle appeared and I followed it from one end of the beach to the other.

I had a whiting as an offering, hoping he would swoop down to eat it, but I don't think he trusted me, and after a mid air altercation with a Whistling Kite, he flew off.

So I've spent the evening making chocolate muffins for Adoring Husband who is returning from Townsville in the morning.

Lemon Chicken Risotto for dinner, was delicious, and there is enough left over for lunch tomorrow.

It's after midnight, so I'm off to bed.

Short and sweet.

Nite all.
