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!!

Joker Round

I took this week as my joker round in the footy tipping comp and so far, I have three out of three correct!

I’m feeling very smug right now, but taking my tipping history into account, that could change at any time. I will gloat while I’m able.

That’s the most exciting thing that happened to me today.

I watched Portrait Artist of the Year, Great British Sewing Bee, The Great Pottery Throw Down, Say Yes to the Dress, my quiz shows and two games of football.

My eyes are rectangular.

The weather was lovely and I got a couple of play times in with Harley so some warm sunshine touched my skin.

It’s Adoring Husband’s night for cooking so I didn’t even have to be productive in the kitchen.

My diary has more dates filled for the next two weeks than I’ve had for the last six months!

I have meditation x 2, hoop-chi-xercise x 2, coffee with the art girls, a private spiritual gathering and whale watching. I feel exhausted just thinking about it.

I’ve gotta go do Friday Falafel for Vegan Chickie now.






Nite all.
