Age Challenged rQQzy: Sunday Blahday

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!!

Sunday Blahday

Sunday was a horrible day for me.

I felt completely blah. Not one cell in my body could find a reason to smile or feel happy so I was a misery guts all day.

Today, I felt much better.

I firmly believe that we should wallow in our misery when we feel the need. It helps.

I spent some time in the art room and finished my seahorse.

Then I started another octopus, embellishing an old art pour. Obviously a long way to go yet.

By the time you read this, there will be two more sleeps until Harley has his cone removed and life gets back to normal. I can’t wait!

All things considered, he has been pretty good, but we will be grateful that all of our legs will get the chance to heal from the bashings that he has inflicted with that massive cone.

I got a perfect round in the footy tipping this week and have jumped from last place to third!

BGWLBH and I are heading into The Bay tomorrow so it’s time for me to sleep.
