Age Challenged rQQzy: Public Holiday

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!!

Safe and Effective: A Second Opinion (2022)

Just in case YouTube take this down for so-called “disinformation or misinformation”, here is another link to access the movie Safe and Effective.

It was quite chilly this morning and I got up early to make breakfast and sat alone under the Bali hut - well not completely alone because not so psychotic dog Colli was hovering for her share of my toast.

Adoring Husband was doing some clearing and gardening around the pool and after I’d finished my breakfast we decided to place some hooks in the rafters of the Bali hut to hang my collection of goodies.

I did a couple of loads of washing, had a little rest in bed before 2pm, watched my quiz shows and then prepared San Choy Bow for BGWLBH, heated a chicken pot pie for AH (one that I prepared for him before we went to Sunny Coast) and I used the leftover rice from last night to make fried rice for me.

Earlier in the day I made an apple and blueberry sauce to pour on the the apple cake that I’d made yesterday.

So I was fairly productive and tonight I watched the final of Farmer Wants a Wife and The Block reveal.

It will be midnight before I know it so I’d best get some sleep.
