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!!

Game Two

Yes! It's State of Origin night again .. game two!

I'm listening to the game online tonight because I'm on the Sunny Coast with no TV.

Queensland have run onto the field and apparently the New South Wales side are still sitting in the dressing rooms attempting to psyche the maroon team out.  *rolls eyes*

I think the Blues (NSW) have a good chance of winning this year .. finally .. after eight years in a row losing, it's time they got their act together.

I've had another lovely day with my little Chicklet today, but haven't taken any photos .. must do that tomorrow morning before I leave!  It's what happens when I'm 'in the moment' and because she doesn't like the camera, I try to avoid making her uncomfortable.

Anyway, here is another photo from the Bunya trip ...



I'm off to listen to the game.

Nite all.
