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!!

Study Mania

Isn't it amazing how because I put the word 'sex' in yesterday's post, it's had twice as many views as my usual posts?  *rolls eyes*

I've been studying like mad today .. have just discovered a page on the study site that I didn't know existed, which lists the lessons and times/dates of tutorials (two of which I have missed - but it's ok because I can replay them).

Sometimes, I feel like an old woman when it comes to computers .. and I realise that I know a lot more than some people my age .. but sometimes I'm pretty slow on the uptake and I'd like to give my self a forehead slap.

Needless to say, after my time away last week, and my ignorance of the study site, I have a lot of catching up to do!

Luckily, Adoring Husband will be busy with training this weekend, so I should have lots of uninterrupted time to put my head in the books and catch up on tutorials.

This morning, I got to soak up some Autumn sunshine and took a couple of photos on my trike ride, then stocked up on some local raw honey, before heading home to work.


I should attempt an early night so that my brain will be ready to absorb tomorrow.

Nite all.
