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!!

Fresh Start

A new week.

Into The Bay again and I bought two more tops … the same as the lilac one that I bought on Friday. These are candy pink and the other is ivory.

We were home before 2pm.

In time to eat my piece of chocolate brownie cake that I got from Su Jus Cafe and sit down to some tennis.

Adoring Husband had a piece of carrot cake and BGWLBH had lemon drizzle cake.

I watched Sinner push through illness to win his match against Rune. I honestly thought he was going to collapse on court. He was trembling, losing his balance and often seemed disoriented. He had to be taken off court by medics for 11 minutes and they gave him some kind of injection.

He came good and in the end, won easily.

Right now, I’ve just watched Alex de Minaur win his match and he’s now in the quarter finals.

The Australian women thrashed England in the T20 ashes match.

Loving all this sport!

I baked potatoes in their jackets with coleslaw and sour cream, served with duck breast and blueberry chilli sauce.

It’s 10pm and feels like midnight so I’m ready for sleep.




Nite all.
