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!!

Becoming Well

On Monday, after a big day in The Bay, my health deteriorated in the afternoon and I struggled to make dinner - which was taking tuna mornay out of the freezer to reheat and making a salad, because that seemed like the easiest option.

As soon as I served dinner, I took myself to bed and had a cozy, warm early night.

I sent a text to The Gypsy to advise that I wouldn’t be in attendance at meditation, so I was able to stay warm in bed at the beginning of my restful, quiet Tuesday. It’s almost 10pm and while I feel a lot better than 24 hrs ago, I still don’t feel 100%.

Tonight I got help from both of my team mates to make nachos for their dinner so it required little effort by me. I was very grateful.

I watched The Wedding Singer today and started to watch the series “The Survivors” which looks interesting.

Now I’m snuggled up in bed watching this weeks episode of “Accused” but I can hear some kind of party happening across the road with loud music and loud talking, so we’ll see how long that lasts. A Tuesday night special.

That’s it from me.






Nite all.
