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!!

Another Day

"This is the part of my life where I silently remove myself from anyone who hurts me more than they love me, drains me more than they replenish me, brings me more stress than they do peace, and tries to stunt my growth rather than clap for it.

 I think that I’ve done more than enough talking and trying to make things work with certain people…I’m done."

( Cici.B – The CrimsonKiss )




What is there to say about today?

I’ve watched more than my share of Christmas movies - all with the same storylines and set in similar small snow packed towns in USA. 

I watched the finale of Love Island and my favourite couple won (Tyra and Kale).

I caught Harley doing this …



An interesting, but too long, a story to tell here.

I swam this afternoon in a very lukewarm pool. Hardly refreshing.

Cold roast chicken, garden salad, potato and leftover spinach pie for dinner.

Now it’s time to sleep.





Nite all.
