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!!

Art for Art's Sake

Adoring Husband drove into The Bay this morning.

I got out of bed late and opted to NOT attend meditation today. I also opted to NOT attend the lady's luncheon.

I think I'm a bit 'peopled' out this past week and needed some quiet alone time inside my own head for a while.

I decided to get arty farty.







I was still playing with my art when AH reminded me about this being the first Wednesday of the month.

It signals trivia at the club and our usual group of five came fifth out of eleven teams. Not as good as last month, but we did win one round ... we actually tied with three other teams for that round, but we got the closest correct year for the 'decider' question which was ... "What year was Albert Einstein born?"

None of us knew the correct answer, but I guessed 1887. He was born in 1879. We won a bag of lollies.

Now it's almost 10.30pm and I'm working tomorrow, so I'd like to get some sleep now.

It's been a nice day and I'm looking forward to being in The Happy Abode tomorrow.

Nite all.
