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!!

Practice

Adoring Husband and I spent a good portion of the day in The Bay purchasing supplies for the paint workshop this weekend.

I found some great bargains!

I had a bit of a practice on the jellyfish this afternoon ...




These are on small canvases and we’ll be using much bigger ones on Saturday.

We’ve had more beautiful rain overnight and today. Everything is green and lush again BUT apparently there is a cyclone forming in the Coral Sea and if it does form, it will head straight towards us!

The only good thing about a cyclone is that some drought affected areas out west might receive some much needed rain.

Otherwise the idea of a cyclone at this time scares me!

Also, it’s rotten timing! We have plans for the next month! We don’t want a cyclone forcing us to cancel these plans!

I’ve just received a message that The Motivator is not well 🤒 so that means I’ll be working tomorrow. Time for bed!!


Get well soon TM 😘

Nite all.
