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!!

Another Flourish

It was a slow day for sales.

Another 2 deliveries, one expected and one unexpected, arrived today which was a nice surprise and I’m glad that I have so much stock leading up to Easter because I have a feeling that I’m going to need it!

I steamed some of the new tops but not all because there is not enough space to hang them.

I decided to make a sign inviting people to ask about sizes in case I have them out the back.

Some lovely Ken jasper glass figurines  arrived - I’d forgotten about them because they’d been held up due to the floods ... 





I had a visit from The Brains Trust. We have great hugs and chats. Same when Aggie visits (yesterday). My girls often put icing on my days with their visits.

The last half hour of the day proved very fruitful and also proved that posting pics of the new stock on the Facebook page is definitely worth it!

What started as a slow day ended as a great day and I raised my arms to thank the universe for ‘providing’ for me.

Adoring Husband took delivery of a new mattress for the back bedroom this morning and we took the time this afternoon to fit the mattress protector and make the bed. It’s very comfortable and much deeper than the previous mattress.

We simply MUST declutter the linen cupboard and figure out which linen is queen sized and which is king sized. The cupboard is jam packed and arranged in no particular order. Basically, it’s a bloody mess.

My main aim this weekend is to declutter my jewellery and now that our trip to Bundaberg has again been postponed (due to getting the car serviced) we can do the linen cupboard. Bad trade I know šŸ˜³

Still no baby ... obviously.

I feel that the baby pool will be between Vegan Chickie and I! 

I think it’s time to make myself comfy in bed to watch the footy.

Nite all.
