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!!

Bath Not Art

Morning coffee with the girls was a bit light on today.

At 9.15am, The Motivator and I were joined by The Welsh Wonder. There were just the three of us for 30 minutes and The Blonde Bombshell appeared with a container full of delicious slice. It was delicious!

It was also nice to catch up with TBB because she hasn’t been able to attend coffee for some time.

We certainly missed The Brains Trust, Lady Lynn and Beauty who all shared a movie date and the other girls, Maid Marian and Aggie who are on Grandparent duties.

I don’t know what time it was when I left the shop, but I rode the long way home and wished I had my camera with me ...


... when I arrived home, my first duty was to give psychotic dog Ruby a haircut and bath. I still haven’t clipped her claws, but that’s a job for another day.

After that, I did some cleaning in the studio.

I cooked up some lunch and then ran out of energy, so I parked my butt on the couch and that’s where I stayed until it was time to prepare dinner.

Adoring Husband cooked our steaks on the barbecue while I prepared the salad.

Done.

I’ll be working tomorrow so I’ll be attending early meditation. Best get some sleep.

Nite all.
