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!!

Done and Dusted

I have two more gifts to purchase, which are online, otherwise my Christmas shopping is done and dusted.

Adoring Husband drove into The Bay this morning and took me to my desired locations for the final couple of gifts that I needed.

We even stumbled upon something for him to purchase for MY Christmas present - he already had two gifts for me, but this is something I’ve been looking at and considering for a year, so I’m a very happy girl!

Afterwards, he dropped me off to meet up with BGWLBH but first I went on the hunt for AH’s Christmas gifts.

I just realised that I don’t have anything for Harley! 😳

We were home by lunchtime, so we prepared some food and went our separate ways for the afternoon.

Harley got some play time and I made some fresh salads to go with leftover snags and chicken drumsticks for the team’s dinner. I passed on dinner because I was still satisfied from lunch.

Tomorrow afternoon I’ll be sharing Christmas drinks with the art girls and our pool should be topped up with magnesium so swimming will be on my daily ‘to do’ list.

Meanwhile I’m ready to sleep.






Nite all.
