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!!

Another Full One

Beautiful Girl With Long Blonde Hair and I spent the entire day in The Bay.

We shopped til we dropped, purchasing clothes, jewellery, underwear, craft items, pens, food, toys, dvds, Boost juices, hair straightener, food covers, bamboo cloths and more.



I ducked into Coles for some meat for dinner before we drove home in the beautiful drenching rain. The dull grey skies opened up and it was so pretty to watch. The grass, plants and trees are already greener and the air smells fresh. It’s been way too long since we got that much wet stuff.

We’ve had well over an inch of rain since Friday night but we can’t be certain exactly how much because AH forgot to put the rain gauge back out when he cleaned it.

BGWLBH and I sat down and selected some quotes that we want to embellish my paint pours with and on Wednesday we’ll gather together the bits and pieces to get to work on them.

Tomorrow is movie date day for Adoring Husband and BGWLBH. They are going to see the new Star Wars movie together. I’m not a fan so I’m pleased to have someone else share the experience with AH.

I’m definitely ready for an early night because all that walking and shopping has worn me out!

Work tomorrow.

Nite all.
