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!!

The Rain in ...

It’s raining!

It’s still raining!

We’ve had 20mm of rain and it’s been lovely!

The weather certainly kept the customers at bay so sales were below average, but it was a really nice morning with the girls and because customers were sparse, I got to spend extra time with the girls.

I paid bills.

I ordered stock.

I did some filing.

I checked emails.

I watched the rain.

I made tea.

I was down one in the journaling class but it was a great class and time absolutely flew! What felt like 20 minutes, was actually 90 minutes.

Adoring Husband and I took the tables down and set out the room for meditation before driving home.

I relaxed for an hour and then made an unusual dinner (for us) of lamb cutlets, eggs, hash browns & tomato. It took me 20 minutes.

I am in bed as I write this and I’m hoping AH’s snoring doesn’t keep me awake tonight because I have an early start tomorrow.

It’s been a good day and the lovely rain should hang around for the week - fingers crossed.



Nite all.
