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!!

Over and Done

I spent almost the entire day in bed.

Reading, playing, studying, writing etc etc etc.

I had to get up at 2pm to attend a 3pm appointment that lasted for 2.5 hours.

It was a most interesting session and I look forward to the next one.

One day, I might share the experience here.

Thank goodness I put a corned silverside in the slow cooker before I left so I fried up some shredded cabbage with honey and steamed some broccoli and carrot to go with it.

Tonight, I've created this ...


... ready for the weekend workshop.

I'm going to play in the studio tomorrow before getting ready for the big birthday bash in the late afternoon.

So there's not much to report for the day and now I need to sleep.

Nite all.
