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!!

Lethargy

I am feeling less sick, but more tired and lethargic.

It takes so much mental energy to walk into the back yard to play with Harley, even more of it to get out of bed in the mornings.

I have no motivation to do anything.

The lingering cough is annoying.

Today, BGWLBH drove into The Bay and Adoring Husband worked mowing all morning.

So I had a couple of hours of peace and quiet.

I watched the movie “The Client” an oldie but a goodie, then “Find Me Falling” with Harry Connick Jnr. I enjoyed them both.

The footy was on all afternoon.

I cooked potato nests filled with capsicum, carrot, zucchini, shallots, mushroom, garlic, chilli and egg then topped with sliced tomato and grated cheese.

They were quite delicious.

I served them with spinach, pumpkin, haloumi, pear and pinenut salad, rice salad and garden salad.

Now it’s 11.30pm and it’s time to sleep.






Nite all.
