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!!

Moving Through the Week

Had a lovely day with Adoring Husband on Tuesday, although we did grocery shopping and ran errands, we still enjoyed a delicious lunch at Aquavue on the esplanade.

We hadn’t been there for 14 months because our last two experiences were not pleasant. Prior to that, it was our favourite place to eat and we took all our visitors there.

Anyway, the food AND the service was much improved since our last visit, so it was a good choice for AH’s birthday.

The weather was glorious and the water looked very inviting …



We spent six hours in The Bay and I was exhausted, but still had to cook dinner for the team. AH had leftover lasagne and I made a quick honey soy chicken with rice for BGWLBH.

I went to bed early and slept a solid 8 hours.

Today has been much quieter day.

I cooked dinner early in the day - chicken and vegetable based shepherds pie, so tonight I just had to put it in the oven.

I watched a fluffy Hallmark movie and my quiz shows. Harley and I had gentle play because his foot is still healing.

I came to bed early but it’s already approaching 11pm so I’d best get some sleep because I have a lunch date with my art girls tomorrow.







Nite all.
