Age Challenged rQQzy: Baking Day

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!!

This morning, after playing with Harley, I decided to bake a cheesecake. Lemon and blueberry. I didn’t have all the ingredients, or enough of the ingredients that I DID have, so I improvised and it turned out quite delicious!

I watched a great movie today on Prime Video called “My Old Ass”. I loved it. I cried, but it was also uplifting. Another movie on Netflix called “Meet Me Next Christmas” which I also enjoyed.

So it was another quiet, relaxing day. I did some more colouring in …
