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!!

More Newbies.

There were quite a few new customers in the shop today.

It seems that people from The Bay are taking advantage of the 50km travel limit rule and escaping their isolation by visiting our lovely town.

Our local cafe opened for the first time in 8 weeks, so these visitors go there to order food and then visit our shop while they wait. They are not spenders but they are friendly and chatty and they fill the day with good vibes.

The fours hours passed very quickly and I had to make a stock order for a lady who ordered something months ago and I didn’t follow up.

Oops.

It’s ok. The order should be here in 4 days.

It was nice to arrive home and be greeted by three healthy dogs and we got to spend the afternoon relaxing together instead of rushing into town!

Thankfully, today was uneventful.



Looking forward to a morning with The Motivator tomorrow.

Nite all.
