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!!

Everything Hurts

Except for a lovely morning with the girls, I have spent all day moving ‘stuff’ from one room to another and back again.

At 2pm today, the meditation room looked like this …


… and the shop, ready for the carpet cleaner, looked like this …




By 8.30pm, the meditation room looked like this …

Adoring Husband and I came home and went straight to bed.

We are exhausted and sore.

We are too old for this!

My area behind the counter will require a lot of time and effort tomorrow because it is a shambles and I’m not even sure how I want the layout yet, but hopefully when I get there in the morning, I will have an epiphany and it will all fall into place.

Sales were low and very few people came through the door, but it was very windy and cold so smart people would remain in the comfort of their own home.

The Happy Hippy came to clean.

It has been a really long day. It’s now 11pm and I’m ready for sleep.

Nite all.
