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!!

Cooling Down

It finally feels like Autumn.

We are 2/3 of the way through the season and the temperatures have been Summer-like until the last week. Now it’s lovely sleeping weather and I even felt a little cool while playing with Harley this afternoon.

Our ANZAC day was spent at home doing art and watching all the ANZAC day football matches.

This is what I started today …

So far, so good.

The football was great and my tipping was good for the day.

I cooked duck with vegetables for dinner and I ate my last piece of birthday cake.

Harley has been a good boy.

I need to be up early in the morning to bake a ‘welcome to retirement’ cake before our Lions Park morning tea.

Then we’ll be off to The Bay.



Nite all.

Lest We Forget.
