I'm writing this post early tonight because I took a risk that may find me in the bathroom for the next few hours.
A neighbour kindly delivered some fresh fish that he caught on the weekend, but couldn't tell me what the fish was. He and his mate caught 8 fish out at sea and they filleted the fish all at the same time and put all of the fillets together. He gave us 3 large fillets.
I'm allergic to Sea Perch. It makes me lose control of ALL of my bodily functions and I need to attend hospital for an injection to help me regain control.
I'm also allergic to fresh water lobster, yabbies, sea scallops, cooked oysters and another fish whose name I don't know .. I just know that I was guaranteed, when I ordered it, that it wasn't Sea Perch .. which means that I have to be very wary when eating any new fish.
Anyway, I crumbed this fish tonight and ate two fillets! It wouldn't matter if I had one mouthful or 6 fillets, it has the same affect on me and it usually takes about 90 minutes from when I eat it.
So the countdown is on.
I spent some time this morning attempting to set up another red balloon shot, but I wasn't happy with any of them, so I decided on this one ...
It's the same as the one I shared yesterday, but edited differently.
I got some good study in today, although I disagree with some of the teachings and have voiced my objections to my supervisor and asked if I will be penalised for a differing opinion if I use it in my assignments. I'm still waiting to hear back .. they say that all contact will receive a response 'within 48 hrs' so we shall see!
Well, I have approximately 30 minutes left before I know my fate for the evening so I am off to make good use of that time.
Nite all.
I'm lazy and selfish and spend too much time on the internet. I love to be creative with photography and jewellery and sketching with pencil and pastels. I'm happier now than I have ever been and I love everything about my life ... where I live, my home, my fantastic grown up children, my lifestyle, my friends, my dogs and last but not least my wonderful adoring husband. Life is good!
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!!
