Again!?
Yes, after such a fabulous day yesterday, it was back to the grind today.
I'm still struggling with the same part of the essay as I was on Friday and Saturday. I feel like I'm so close to that magic light bulb moment, but I'm not quite there and it's a little bit frustrating.
I'm feeling a touch overwhelmed and like I don't have much control over anything at the moment. I only have until Sunday morning to get my essay finished and do all the other chores that need to be done before I go away for the week and I can feel the panic beginning to well inside me.
I'm looking forward to starting the day tomorrow with the girls for coffee (except I'll be drinking water .. but that's ok). An hour with friends will be a nice relaxed way to start the day and then it will be another intense study day while Adoring Husband fulfils more SES duties.
We had our main meal at lunch today (chicken casserole with roasted broccoli, bacon and garlic) because AH is at an important (aren't they all?) SES meeting tonight.
I had a follow up phone call from our lovely new vet today, asking how Ruby is managing. That was a pleasant surprise. Our last vet wasn't one for following up.
Anyway, it's been an uneventful day and after my very late hour to bed last night, I think I will make up for it tonight by heading to bed now.
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!!
