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!!

Another Lazy One

We had some patchy rain today and a couple of short, sharp showers that were so heavy, we had to increase the volume on the TV.

Before I got out of bed, I watched the end of the final round of the golf tournament that I’ve been following. None of my favourites were among the front runners, so I didn’t stay up late and only turned it on at 6am to watch the final hour.

I got out of bed earlier than usual to wash my hair, play with Harley for 40 minutes and then make some breakfast.

I then parked my butt on the couch for the rest of the day!

A couple of fluffy Netflix movies, my quiz shows and I made stir fry vegetables with rice for dinner. Adoring Husband got bonus steamed beef dim sims on his plate. Leftover trifle for dessert.

That was my day. It was lazy and indulgent and just the way I like my days.

Meditation early tomorrow, so it’s time to sleep.







This is Harley with his butt on the arm of AH’s chair and his head on the arm of my chair.

Nite all.
