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!!

A Bit Chilled

… and by chilled, I don’t mean relaxed!

I felt cold almost all day and even covered myself with a furry blanket on the couch. It was about 3pm when I finally began to feel thawed out.

It was cold when I got out of bed this morning.

It was cold on my walk with Harley.


It was cold around the pool.

It was cold in my art space.

It was cold in the lounge room.

It was cold outside tonight when Harley went out to pee before bed!

There must be rain coming because there was a huge ring around the moon …

I painted a large canvas today, ready to create a double seahorse painting. Watch this space.

Footy tipping was much better today and we all got three correct out of three games. So far, all of us in the tipping comp have picked exactly the same teams. This means we all have four out of six correct for the week. Tomorrow will be the deciders and I doubt we’ll all pick the same teams.

It’s already after 11pm so it’s time to sleep.




Nite all.
