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!!

Absence Makes ...

I must apologise for my absence over the last few days, but life has been pretty full on and the days have been long, with late nights and early mornings.

Some things had to be sacrificed, and unfortunately, one of those things was this blog.

Tonight is not the night that I'm catching up because it's already very late and I have things that need to be done before bed, but I thought I should pop in and let you know that we are all alive and kicking  and that the big birthday bash was a roaring success!!

At some stage over the next few days, I will post photos and tell you all about the few days that were full of family and friends and love and laughter.

For now, here are some photos posted by other people from the party...









We still have Bubbles, Knight in Shining Armour and BGWLBH with us, which is lovely.

The shop has been going incredibly well and we are pretty well prepared for Christmas with lots of stock arriving last week and more coming in this week.

For now, I'm off to finish my chores for the night and then climb into bed.

Have a happy hump day!!

Nite all.
