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!!

Zero Zip Nada

That’s how much motivation I had today. Zero. Zip. Nada.

I did nothing on my short “to do” list that I mentioned yesterday.

Reluctantly and under sufferance, I pulled the decorations from the Christmas tree and packed them away. Took down the tinsel and other decorations from around the house. Helped Adoring Husband fold up, wrap up and tie up the Christmas tree into its home for the coming year.

I made the marinade for tonight’s chicken wings.

Spent about 90 minutes with Harley in and around the pool, which was lovely.

Watched tennis and cricket.

I’d love to do some journalling but I keep opening the new journals and am very hesitant to spoil their fresh new clean pages with my ink. It’s always the hardest part for me. Writing that first word on a fresh clean page.

Let’s hope that tomorrow brings some motivation.








Nite all.
