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!!

Decorated

Well, the tree is up and decorated ... I will attempt a better photo tomorrow night, to show the different colours ...


... but it's raining tonight, so I couldn't take a photo of the outside lights. Maybe tomorrow night.

There is still lightning and thunder about and still plenty of rain on the radar, but the weather is nice .. not scary.

As for my day, nothing much to report, other than a lovely morning tea with Kaz. Just the two of us, because everyone else was busy .. it's that time of year.

Tomorrow is date day, so I'm off to bed to get my beauty sleep.

Nite all.

PS My apologies .. I wrote this last night, but forgot to publish it!
