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!!

All Clear

Adoring Husband attended an early appointment with his doctor to get the results of multiple tests regarding his health.

Apart from being “old”, he is fine.

All clear!

Excellent news!

While he was gone I got out of bed and made breakfast, which I ate under the Bali hut, and while I was there I watched the most recent episode of ‘The Great Pottery Throw Down’. Love that show.

I did a tour of the garden and discovered our last radish hiding behind a pea plant …

Art was on my mind so I decided to attack my octopus and got quite a bit done. There’s lots more to do yet but it felt very therapeutic.

BGWLBH made up a couple of big grazing platters for our late lunch.

I watched my quiz shows while AH and BGWLBH moved the side gates forward in front of the new carport.

They took so long, it was my job to cook the usual Friday night fare for dinner.

We finished that in time to watch Friday night football. So far I have three correct tips out of three games.

A very uneventful Friday for which I am grateful.

I’m watching the synchronised diving event from the Commonwealth Games and will probably fall asleep to it. I'll put the sleep timer on.







Nite all.
