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!!

Two Timer

I’ve worn a dress two days in a row!

Unheard of!

It felt good.

Morning coffee with the girls was loud and unfortunately I was interrupted often by pesky customers, most of whom didn’t make a purchase, so I missed a lot of the conversation. I still love to hear the girls chatting away while I’m serving people.

Today was an average day of sales.

The Happy Hippy came to clean.

The Landlady (for those in the know she was once Mrs Bucket’s landlady) came by with her crafty work. She creates animals, candles and other beautiful things out of books and their pages. 

These are not hers, but something like this …



Her work is quite lovely and I’ve kept some to sell in the shop.

I paid a bill.

I received a bill.

I cleaned the kitchen of all the art mess from Saturday.

I vacuumed the floors.

There was no journaling today, so I set the room up for meditation and got an early mark.

Bubbles, Adoring Husband and I played Yahtzee this afternoon and I made butter chicken for dinner - I had my delicious soup.

I got my Big Brother fix before bed and now it’s already 11pm!

Time for me to sleep.



Nite all.
