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!!

Blinded by the Light

This will be brief because I can’t see properly out of my right eye.

Imagine this arch shape smack bang in the centre of your vision in the right eye - but where it’s white, imagine flashing silver like a strobe light.

My vision has been like that for the last 30 minutes so it’s time for me to rest my eye and listen to an audible book with my eyes closed.

I’ve had a blah day.

It started badly - nothing catastrophic, just annoying stuff. Stayed pretty blah all day. I achieved nothing. Nonexistent productivity. Low motivation. Nil enthusiasm. Zero care factor. 

I watched the latest version of “Little Women” which I enjoyed.

Monday will be better!

Nite all.
