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!!

Routinely Meditating

It was so hard to get out of bed this morning.

My tummy was playing up until about 2am so I didn’t get to sleep until late.

The alarm was set for 6am AND 6.30am because it’s meditation day and I knew 4 hours was not going to be enough sleep.

At 6.30am I hit ‘snooze’ four times so it was 7.15am by the time I forced myself to make a move.

This meant that I was rushing around like a crazy person for 30 mins trying to get ready.

I rode to the hall and it was exactly 8am when I sat down. Just in the nick of time!

As usual, it was a great class.

I met The Gypsy at her temporary place of residence and we had two good hours on the deck. During that time I received texts from both Adoring Husband and BGWLBH telling me that Harley had hurt his foot and was bleeding. These were followed by a phone call from AH.

I didn’t rush and when I arrived home at lunch time, Harley was jumping around on all four feet happy as Larry.

The reason I returned home early was so that I could prepare lamb shanks in the slow cooker, which turned out quite delicious.

We played trivia after dinner.

Now I’m tired and need to catch up on some sleep.







Nite all.
