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!!

Something Else

I have withdrawn from the mini novel writing course because the male who delivers the content sounds like Walt Disney’s Goofy and I just can’t take him seriously, nor can I focus on the important stuff.

So that’s two down.

I still have the art journaling course and I’ve just enrolled in the Creating Short Courses Online introductory course which starts next month.

Today I added a little more to my first art journal page …

I finished watching the Big Brother series.

I watched Sabalenka get beaten by Madison Keys in the women’s final of the Australian Open.

I watched the Australian women thrash the Brits in a T20 match.

It was ‘fend for yourself’ night so I didn’t have to cook.

I almost burnt the house down when I boiled Harleys vegetables until they blackened and burnt 😳

Oops

We had a massive storm last night. 35mm of torrential rain inside about 40 minutes. Wind that sounded like a freight train. Lightning and thunder. 

I was concerned for a while but we survived.

Time to sleep now.






Nite all.
