Age Challenged rQQzy: Sleepy Sunday

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!!

Sleepy Sunday

I opened YouTube on my bedroom television last night and played meditation music specifically for deep sleep.

It was pretty amazing because I fell asleep instantly and slept until 8.15am. I did not stir all night!

I think I’ll save that one and use it often.

After our morning play, I gave Harley his treats and then made myself presentable to go into The Bay with BGWLBH.

Because it’s Sunday, we expected Stocklands to be pretty quiet, but it was surprisingly busy, as was Pialba Place!

We stocked up on some art supplies, did our lotto, bought junk food, explored the cheap shops, got some goodies for dinner and then stopped at our local Farmgate for fresh eggs and zucchini.

We were home before 2.30pm and Harley gave me his usual raucous welcome.

Tonight was GF beef pies with sweet potato and potato mash, green beans and carrot. It filled everyone’s bellies.

Dinner was early so we had time to play trivia before our Sunday night shows came on at 7pm.

I’m watching MAFS, recording Celebrity and tomorrow I’ll watch Australian Idol on 7Play.

Meanwhile I have another webinar to watch!
