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!!

Prepped

After hearing warnings that next week, Australian truck drivers will be blocking all the highways into every state, Adoring Husband and I decided to do a little prepping.

We drove into The Bay and filled our trolley with enough supplies to sustain us until mid September.

Even if the blockade doesn’t happen, we won’t have to visit The Bay for a while, which is always a good thing!

There didn’t seem to be too many in the supermarket with the same idea as us but I’m thinking that as the time draws nearer and the media start spruking, people will start panic buying.

We have sufficient toilet paper 😬

There were only two empty seats at meditation this morning and we discussed vices, virtues and powers.

It was a good class and afterwards, some of the girls remained behind for a chat while The Gypsy used the treatment room with a client.

The shop was quiet in the morning so I got some more quality time with The Gypsy.

Sales were average.

I received all the goodies that I ordered for the jewellery/trinket class that I’ll be running next month.

I attempted to purchase some Floetrol from Bunnings. They were out of stock so I went online and ordered 2 x 4L bottles.

I was hoping to receive some Cenzoni leather phone wallets today - specifically for a customer who is leaving town for a couple months but unfortunately they didn’t arrive so she’ll have to wait until she returns.

It has indeed been a long day so I’m ready to sleep.


Nite all.
