Age Challenged rQQzy: Feeling Weary

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!!

Feeling Weary

Had a good day in The Bay with BGWLBH.

Had breakfast at Arkarra Tea Gardens, which was lovely.

Had a peaceful evening without Adoring Husband and didn’t have to cook because BGWLBH shouted us dinner of roast chicken, potato bake and Asian slaw. Lemon drizzle cake for dessert.

Was very disappointed that QLD lost State of Origin, though I did expect it because NSW have a very strong team.

Had to go to work for AH because he is in Bargara golfing.

Now I need to sleep because I have to get up early, 6am, to put the safety cones out on the loose tiles at the shops.
