Age Challenged rQQzy: Pain in Me

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!!

Pain in Me

Update on the foot … the castor oil did not have the same effect as Saturday night, which was disappointing this morning when I tried to walk on it, BUT, by 3pm today, the pain was almost nonexistent!

Tonight I remembered the Cayenne Pepper and I have a fresh poultice applied to my foot.

Today was not a good day.

I returned to The Bay to have the security tag removed from my new bra.

Most of my day was spent finding somewhere to sit down because my foot was hurting AND my stomach was acting up as well so had to sit to relieve the pain in both parts of my body. It was not pleasant, especially because we had so much to do in town.

I made easy nachos and soft shell tacos for dinner.

MAFS night!

Now I require some healing sleep. I’m not sure if I’ll be up for meditation tomorrow, but definitely not qi gong.

Bring on the 😴😴😴
