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!!

Not Much

So much for having a lot to do on my day off!

I DID have a lot to do ... I simply chose not to do any of it!

Because I can 😬

I stayed in bed until midday, ordered some stock, printed some ‘decluttering’ sheets, checked my emails, added some more content to Tuesday’s journaling class, created some ‘then’ and ‘now’ photos of the shop to celebrate three years of operation and added them to a long post for the Facebook page.

I got out of bed to make lunch and even though I intended on adding more to the painting, I chose instead to watch a Netflix movie with Adoring Husband ... of course he chose to find other things to do, so I watched it mostly on my own!

It was, nonetheless, a pleasant distraction.

Together we began watching the series “Lucifer”. After just one episode, I’m not sure what I think of it yet. I’m willing to watch more before I make a judgement.

It has been a very lazy rainy Monday afternoon which I have thoroughly enjoyed.


My punishment for not doing all the ‘things’ today, is having to get up early in the morning to do some of those ‘things’! Which is ok right now, but tomorrow morning I’ll be kicking myself 🥴

On that note ...

Nite all.
