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!!

Tired

It’s been a long day.

9am - 5pm at the shop.

Great sales but not record breaking.

With Vegan Chickie’s permission, we opened the Christmas gift that she sent us, which was a big hamper of GF goodies from Byron Bay. Lots of deliciousness inside that box! 

Started a game of trivia before dinner.

Paused trivia for dinner.

Watched “Love Actually” with Adoring Husband and Beautiful Girl With Long Blonde Hair in our lounge room and Vegan Chickie, Mr Perfect and Mama Perfect in Mama P’s lounge room in Victoria.

Vegan Chickie created a group chat page so we could all comment at the good bits through the movie.

Afterwards, BGWLBH, AH and I continued playing the trivia game we’d started, but couldn’t finish because I was too tired. We paused it again and will continue tomorrow.

It’s almost 11.30pm and I am absolutely exhausted!

I hope you all have a lovely Christmas Day and that you feel some love. 

Nite all.
