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!!

Carked It

Our toilet just carked it.

The reason that this is a problem is because it's 10.30pm and everyone is asleep so they have no idea. When they get up in the middle of the night, they will find a note telling them that there is no functioning toilet in our house!

I told Barry this afternoon that there was a problem with it and he seemed to think that it was just air pockets in the pipes.

I'm here to tell you that it is more serious than that.

Today I watched an old movie on Netflix with Sally Field, Ed Harris and Keifer Sutherland called "Eye for an Eye". I remember watching it way back in 1996 (29 years ago!!!). It was great then and it was great today.

Nothing else happened today.

Tomorrow is meditation day so it's time to sleep.





Nite all.
