Age Challenged rQQzy: It’s Finals Time

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!!

It’s Finals Time

I am perched up in bed watching the Wimbledon gentlemen’s final between Djokovic and Alcaraz.

It’s going to be epic, whatever the outcome.

I got a perfect round in my footy tipping comp this round. That’s the second time this season for me! Squirt and Marco Polo also got perfect rounds and Squirt used this round as her joker round, which means double points! She got 36 pts which still only puts her 6 pts in front of me and I haven’t used my joker round yet.

It was a cool wet day here.

Harley got wet and dug holes and generally was a naughty boy.

Adoring Husband mowed for work this morning.

BGWLBH did the ironing.

I washed all the covers and lounge protectors that Harley has dirtied this week.

Now I’m going to focus on this brilliant tennis final.
