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!!

It's that time again!

State of Origin time.

You all know how I feel about State of Origin.

Queensland v New South Wales

Maroons v Blues

Cane Toads v Cockroaches

I am a Queenslander, born and bred.

Adoring Husband is a New South Welshman, born and bred.

I wear maroon.

He wears blue.

Queensland has won the last 8 series in a row.

Tonight, New South Wales won the first game of the series 12-8.

So all I have to say is ...

AND ...


Congratulations Adoring Husband.  Enjoy the moment :)

Nite all.
