Age Challenged rQQzy: One More 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!!

One More Time

I’m voting “No”

Harley likes to sleep on me or beside me …

BGWLBH drove into The Bay and was gone for almost 5 hours. She came home sicker than ever.

Adoring Husband slept in his chair for many hours today.

I played with Harley a lot!

I tidied up and culled some of the contents of two vases of flowers.

I tidied some of the art space.

I took washing off the line and found homes for everything.

I cooked breakfast and for dinner I did crispy skinned chicken with sweet potato/potato mash, green beans and snow peas.

I cleared leaves out of the creepy crawly and out of the pool while Harley kept dropping the ball into the water and then diving in for it, drenching me in the process.

Nothing exciting happening here … I’m doing my best to avoid the outside world.

Time for me to sleep.
