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!!

Fun Fun Fun

Work was fun fun fun today!!

One big box of Ivys bags and scarves PLUS a box of Cenzoni bags, wallets and purses all arrived this morning and The Motivator and I spent the entire day unpacking, checking off, pricing, rearranging and displaying everything.

Just like Romy and Michelle, we got to fold scarves!

By the end of the day, we still hadn't finished and we may need to completely rearrange the shop to fit everything in! Not only that, but we need to make another couple of orders from suppliers that we've run out of stock.

Crazy.

NSW school holidays begin next week and we are wondering if we will have some southerners here enjoying our perfect Queensland weather.

We were so busy in short bursts today and very quiet for long spells, but that's ok because it was still a good day for sales and we also got a lot done.

Adoring Husband collected my iMac from the computer doctor but I haven't plugged it in to see how it's working yet, because we were too busy, but I'll have to check it tomorrow so that I can send our ad through to BHPA.

Here it is, almost 11pm and we are still sitting up watching Commonwealth Games events on TV.

My bed time. *yawn*




Nite all.
