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!!

Day After

After my big day of cleaning, my mind was motivated to continue today, but my body was NOT!

Aches and pains in my joints and muscles plus a sciatica situation.

So after playing with Harley and making my breakfast of GF crumpets, I planted my butt on the couch for the entire day.

I watched 3 movies on Netflix. “Minecraft” with Jack Black and Jason Mamoa, an Australian movie called “Allen” and a Christmas movie “The Christmas Switch”.

Sunday spaghetti for dinner.

The final of the Rugby League World Cup, where Australia convincingly defeated New Zealand 32-12.

The final round of the DP World tour in Dubai where Hatton won by 5 strokes and McIlroy came second which means he won “The Race to Dubai” championship for the 8th year in a row.

Eviction night on Big Brother. Happy to see Matthew out of the house.

Now it’s almost midnight and it’s time to sleep.





Nite all.
