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!!

New Challenge

Day three of the #100happydays challenge ...


I look forward to pedalling to the post office every day to check the mail .. especially if I'm expecting a parcel!

The May challenge for the flickr group is 'Repetition in Nature' and I have a great idea for it, so watch this space.

I finally submitted my first assignment .. how scary is it to press that 'send' button!?  It asks the question "Are you sure? You cannot make any changes after your assignment is submitted."  UGH!  Do I?  Don't I? *squeeze eyes shut*  *press 'send'*  B-R-E-A-T-H-E

Next challenge, finish second assignment.  So much reading to do.  So many questions to answer.

Feeling a lot better today and even spent some time in the warm sunshine by the river this morning.  It was only 12C when I left home - cold enough to wear jeans and shoes!  Unheard of!

So tomorrow the challenge is to complete all three of the above challenges.  Wish me luck.

Nite all.
