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!!

I Found Some

I found some motivation today.

I was out of bed much earlier than usual and I started phase two of the bathroom treatment.

It was a frustrating process. Because of faulty equipment, I had to compromise and find alternatives for part of it and this meant it took much longer than it should have. I still haven’t quite finished and it will probably take another 20 minutes of work before I can start phase three.

It was messy and uncomfortable because I had to work on my knees for a good portion of the time. My knees are feeling a bit tender this evening.

I stopped to prepare lunch. Ham, LF cheese and ham toasties. We’ve been relying too heavily on bread lately and I’m pleased that I’ve promised to help BGWLBH become the healthiest version of herself because we need to do that for ourselves too.

I had another big secret job to do in the afternoon. It was quite time consuming but I got most of it done.

Sausage, egg, tomato and onion for dinner.

Big Brother for entertainment. (Some might disagree on the ‘entertainment’ part of that sentence)

Now it’s time to sleep.






Nite all.
