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!!

A Bit Productive

On Sunday, Adoring Husband asked me what my Monday plans were.

My reply was “To live my best life”

My best life included

  • staying in bed until 11.30am
  • creating 3 pieces of art
  • transferring my clothes to the new dressing table
  • putting up the Christmas tree
  • cooking corned silverside with white sauce, cabbage and sweet potato for dinner


I’m afraid that cleaning the bathroom was not part of me living my best life today.

Maybe tomorrow.

Maybe not 😳

No swimming today because those dreadful strong hot winds make being outside damned uncomfortable!

That’s my Monday in a nutshell.

Nite all.
