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!!

Flower Power 🌻

I dragged myself out of bed early this morning to attend meditation, even though I wasn’t working.

It was a good session and worth the effort!

Afterwards, The Motivator and I set up the tables in the training room ready to practice some art. TM wanted me to show her how to create the sunflower.

Sadly, I did not take a photo of her beautiful flower, but here is mine ...


... which is very similar to the last two flowers that I painted.

We took turns to serve customers throughout the day, so our art was interrupted continuously, which is a good thing because it was a good sales day.

We spent the entire afternoon chatting like old times and I didn’t leave until after 3pm!

I tested the pool water when I arrived home, but it was a bit cooler than the other day, so I chose to not swim today.

I have to say that I am very tired tonight. Far too much excitement for one day!

Nite all.
