Age Challenged rQQzy: Too Old

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!!

Too Old

I’m getting too old for this s#%t!

Spent the day in The Bay.

Purchased all of the art pens and supplies that I needed so I can’t wait to get into the art space tomorrow and get some more done, maybe even finish!

The car was loaded up to the brim with all the groceries and our other shopping. We stopped to pick up our double order of eggs and drove on to Farm Gate for some extra goodies.

It took forever to unload the car, unpack the bags and then pack everything away. Harley was very patiently waiting to play so after we did that, I made the marinade for the chicken, then bagged all the dog bones separately and filled the bottom drawer of the freezer.

By the time dinner was ready, I could barely keep my eyes open.

We attempted to watch a movie, but by 8pm, I was done.

It’s time for me to sleep.
