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!!

Pretty Average

I opted to open the shop today and Monday from 9am - 1pm.

Considering how many people are around, sales were pretty average - not holiday average - but normal average. Quite surprising really.

Adoring Husband helped me close up shop and I came home to enjoy a late lunch of prawns with mango and avocado.

We played trivia for a couple of hours and then put the game on hold while we prepared some fresh salads for dinner.

The three of us decided on a grounding walk along the beach ...











We had an early dinner and I felt exhausted so Beautiful Girl With Long Blonde Hair walked over to observe the bats on her own. AH decided to go for a ride on his bicycle to look at the bats. Apparently the bats were a bit lazy this evening and not as active as previous evenings.

We’ve all retired to bed extra early. I know that I am feeling very weary today and my energy levels are quite low. A good night’s sleep is what I need - with minimum pee stops during the night!

Nite all.
