Age Challenged rQQzy: Ambushed

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!!

Ambushed

This morning I got to catch up with two of my favourite people in the whole world.

Lady Lynn and Rebel Mardi are back in town and I got to spend a very precious 90 minutes with them over coffee.

I totally felt the love and it was just like old times. I didn’t realise how much I’ve missed them until today and I wish I had more time in their precious company. It was healing and therapeutic.

I did not appreciate the ambush but I forgive them because I know that their intentions were honourable.

BGWLBH was leaving for The Bay just as I arrived home.

Feeling a bit peckish, I made myself a toasted sandwich and then planted myself in front of the telly for the day. I watched a movie and my quiz shows.

Harley got 30 minutes of play time in the pool area after which I prepared the hot and spicy sauce for our chicken wings that Adoring Husband cooked.

I had a good night with the footy, tipping both of tonight’s games correctly. I missed last nights game though.

It will be an early start tomorrow as BGWLBH and I will be going to the pier markets before our nail salon appointments.

So I should sleep now.
