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!!

Light Me Up

The Christmas lights are up!


There is still one more item to add.  I ordered a Santa sitting on an outback dunny, online and it came without the power box, so that should arrive next week and then our Christmas display should be complete!

I left the house quite early this morning while workers were here installing solar lights in our kitchen/family room. We now have a new solar panel on the roof and four bright solar lights making what was once a dull area in our home, nice and bright.

The remainder of my day was spent socialising in the morning, showing off Ms Mac to anybody who cared, and in the afternoon, Adoring Husband and I drove into The Bay to stock up on junk food for my Gilmore Girls binge watch tomorrow night.

While we were in town, we lunched at Wild Lotus, which was nice, but I ignored my full button and suffered all afternoon with a very full belly!! It's been a while since we ate there and it was quite busy, but the service was still good, as was the food.

We picked up our FROG box on the way home.

No work on the website today, but tomorrow is looking good for some desk time.

It looks like I could have an early night. It's not even 10.30pm and I'm headed to bed right now!

Nite all.
