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!!

Delightfully Dull

It was a warm sunshiny day with barely a cloud to be witnessed in the blue sky.

Forty minutes away, in Maryborough, it was pouring with rain during some of Adoring Husband’s golf game!

I had a two hour zoom catch up, over a cup of soursop tea, with The Gypsy this morning. Love our chats.

Made myself an early lunch and parked my butt you-know-where … the couch … where I watched mindless TV for 3 hours.

I made three different meals for dinner.

BGWLBH: Spinach and ricotta ravioli with creamy garlic and cheese sauce.

Adoring Husband: Tacos.

Me: Chicken wings and mushrooms poached in buttery home made chicken broth. (To die for!)

We played trivia for an hour, watched “Robin Hood Prince of Thieves” before the footy started.

Souths annihilated St George 40-0. I tipped correctly. Adoring Husband did not.

And so another perfectly delightful day has ended. 



Nite all.
