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!!

R & R Sunday

I have nothing much to report except that I’ve been lounging in bed binge watching Good Girls most of the day!

The wet and windy weather has been very conducive to staying indoors.

We changed the bedding mid afternoon and put the new new doona cover on the bed - the doona is actually going in for dry cleaning this week, but the cover is spread lovingly over the mattress ...

I washed the bedding, made Adoring Husband a tasty juice of pineapple, mango, banana and pear with coconut water and reheated last night’s leftovers for AH’s dinner.

AH was feeling much better during the day but as the afternoon wore on, his pesky cough gained momentum and he’s been struggling during the evening.

Today was just what the doctor ordered. Very restful and self nurturing for me.

It’s now 9pm and we are both in bed watching First Dates. I think I’ll get back to Good Girls shortly.

Nite all.
