Age Challenged rQQzy: Make Up Sales

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!!

Make Up Sales

Today was a blinder!

Not quite record breaking but it certainly made up for Friday’s low sales … and then some!

There were a couple of times when I had a queue of people waiting to be served!

My only quiet time was the last hour when I chose to plant my butt and take a breath and shut down my brain.

Adoring Husband helped me shut up shop, we did a little grocery shopping and came home to watch some Netflix.

I did my washing and we watched the football - I got all 3 of today’s games wrong on my tipping card. Not that it matters because I’m coming 2nd last in our family group.

It’s almost 11pm so it’s time to sleep.

Tomorrow is lunch with the Babes minus Aggie who is still recovering from surgery. It’s a later start than usual so I still get to sleep in a little.

The weather will be perfect. The food will be delicious. We will be surrounded by nature. The company will be the best.
