Age Challenged rQQzy
I'm lazy and selfish and spend too much time on the internet. I love to be creative with photography and jewellery and sketching with pencil and pastels. I'm happier now than I have ever been and I love everything about my life ... where I live, my home, my fantastic grown up children, my lifestyle, my friends, my dogs and last but not least my wonderful adoring husband. Life is good!
Nice to see you!

Tis The Season
Footy season is back!
After round one, Adoring Husband leads the footy tipping competition by 2 points. He is very smug about it. Let’s see how long he retains the lead.
We’ve received 26mm of rain since 9am today. It’s very wet and Harley is NOT happy about it. The garden IS very happy about it!
This week, I had a day in the bay, I got my sketch book out …
It’s not done and I doubt that I will finish it because it’s very confronting getting up close and personal with your wrinkles and saggy bits. I’ll see how I feel later.
I’ve rebounded every day, I have recommenced my morning habit of warm lemon water, I made a lime/passionfruit meringue tart …
It was delicious!
I’ve tended my garden, I made a new batch of colloidal silver, I precooked some meals to freeze for the week and I watched all of the NRL games as well as some golf.
Number One Son commenced Uni in Perth and is being arty farty as well as trying his hand at creative writing.
The infection in Adoring Husband’s leg has healed well, but he has gashed both of his legs while working in the garden, so there are other wounds to be concerned about. Honestly, it’s never ending!
That’s about all I’ve got.
Nite all.

What’s New?
Nothing is new.
My garden is growing well and I still haven’t taken a photo - must do that tomorrow!
Harley is still perfect.
The weather is hot with intermittent showers, and apparently will get wetter as the week goes on.
I’ve not done anything productive, other than cooking meals.
Distractions like online games, YouTube videos, catching up on Australian Idol, Netflix movies etc have helped the hours pass.
I have a list of jobs that need doing around the house but am struggling to find the energy, motivation and strength to do any of them. I’ll get there eventually. If I want them done properly, I have to do them myself - I have left those jobs in other people’s hand for years now and quite frankly, it’s farcical.
No meditation this morning because The Gypsy was not well.
Now I think I shall curl up for sleep.
Nite all.

Life Goes On
Still nothing exciting happening here.
Monday was a quiet day on the couch (what else is new) and my only other activities were playing with Harley, tending my garden and cooking dinner.
Today was meditation day and even though it was a struggle to get out of bed, I was still 5 minutes late. Apparently, all but one person was late to class!
I enjoyed 2.5 hours with The Gypsy afterwards. We had a LOT to catch up on because we hadn’t seen each other for two weeks.
Adoring Husband had a doctor’s appointment to have his stitches removed, so I had to ride my trike to class. I had a head wind on the way there, which was a struggle, especially because it’s been quite a few weeks since I last rode.
Thankfully, it was a tail wind on the return trip.
AH was home by the time I arrived and BGWLBH was in the Bay.
At 1pm, I sat down to eat my lunch and watch a fluffy movie, followed by Australian Idol catch up.
AH had a little nap on his chair.
This afternoon, I felt quite unwell and it was a real struggle to move myself off the bed to cook dinner. I managed to throw a stack of food in a baking pan and put it in the oven for an hour. At the end of the hour, I steamed asparagus and carrots with garlic and butter to have with.
I came straight to bed after dinner to nurse my tender tummy.
I did NOT win OzLotto $40million tonight. Sad but true. I had big plans to help so many people.
Now it’s time to sleep.
Nite all.

Daily Doings
Tomorrow I will take photos of my vegetable garden. It’s doing very nicely!
My days have consisted of gardening, Harley play, laundry, making fresh batches of colloidal silver, garden research, watching movies, cooking, decluttering and napping.
Adoring Husband’s leg is still looking infected - maybe a slight improvement.
The weather has been very hot.
Now it’s almost 11pm so it’s sleep time for me.
