Six x 13 year old girls celebrated a birthday today by spending two hours creating art at The Happy Abode.
They were so focused on what they were doing which meant they were very quiet. It was the complete opposite of what we were expecting!
They did good work and enjoyed themselves. I think The Motivator enjoyed herself too.
Meanwhile, I had a steady morning in the shop and time passed quickly.
Adoring Husband helped close the shop and we arrived home in time for me to put some lamb shanks in the slow cooker.
I parked my butt on the lounge and watched some Countdown and then some footy.
Art was on my mind but I was unable to find enough enthusiasm to get up and physically do any.
I do have some ideas for my health workshop and I hope to do some work on that tonight and tomorrow, scribble a few notes and maybe plan the first two sessions and print out some information and research data/results to add to the hand outs.
I need to focus more closely on my own health because I haven’t been drinking enough water and my physical activity has reduced to almost zero for the last 3 months and I’m feeling it! No triking. No swimming. No walking on the beach. Only an hour of hooping once a week.
I can’t be teaching health if I’m not practicing good health or feeling healthy myself!
The healing/cleansing meditation that I did before bed last night was perfect and really cleared my head so that I slept soundly for almost 8 hours.
Anyway, I’m off to bed to do some work.
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!!
