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!!

Very Busy and Important

I remembered my photography date with Tweedle Dum this morning and spent a most enjoyable hour in her garden taking photographs of her orchids and other garden beauties...




Just as I was about to check the photos and start some editing, I received a phone call from the community Progress Association asking for some photos.

Apparently our town has reached the semi finals of some competition and I've been asked to provide some photos which will be included in the finals presentation.

So I'm obviously very busy and important right now!

Tomorrow morning I will get up early to get a couple of extra photos of the river at high tide and then some shots of people enjoying coffee on the sidewalk.

That's my news for the day.

I have other photos from today to share here in the coming days, but for now, at midnight, I'm off to bed.

Nite all.
