I can't believe its February since I last wrote in here. Where does the time go? Faster and faster as you get older, and I also now have a hole in my head where my brain used to be. Useful on those occasions when it pays to be dumb, but not so good when you're trying to remember where you put that pile of dirty laundry............

Hmmmm. Yes I have celebrated another birthday- well I tried to ignore it, but I still got cards from well meaning friends. And then I think I need compensation and perhaps I should make more of the occasion- to take the sting out of the tail as it were. Have a big party do something wonderful or demand a huge pressie. Perhaps a huge diamond ring, whose patterns of refracted light I could muse upon. Or a fabulous holiday somewhere unique and special....like in one of those tented luxury oasis places hidden in a desert somewhere miles from anywhere..and then I look at my bad tempered old grouch of a hubby and think.......er no.......If it were Viggo Mortensen now that would be a different story, but the Old Familiar.......

You see you guys think you have the sole claim to wanting to be with a sexy oppo and trading in the old model for a brand new one ...but we women feel just the same. Believe me. Its just a tad harder for us to achieve, especially with kids about. I am still getting 'MUM...what's for dinner?' After all these years.

Sigh. Sometimes I feel if I have to cook one more dinner/supper/lunch I shall chop off all my fingers so I can't prep food anymore. But you can imagine how much better life would all be with a new exciting sexy man about the place.....

Anyway I am planning an escape- a world tour- well half a world tour to start with and then the other half later. This is because of work commitments and stuff, not quite so free to dash off
under those circumstances. But I plan on Aus and NZ, maybe Tasmania, Mauritius, Madagascar, Zanzibar and a Nile Cruise to see the antiquities. I might leave out the Far East cos of tourists and bird flu, and I dont think I could eat curry all the time so maybe India might be a no no. But then there's Bhutan....But those are my intial ideas. I am trawling the internet for relevant info.

And on that note I must go see about passengers on cargo ships- I dont think I could stand to cruise but perhaps being on a working ship might be more interesting??


Must go . Byeee

Hmmmmmmm hi Blog

Ok OK OK..I know...tardy again. Plead my excuses...I bulged a disc whilst sneezing...yeah yeah yeah sounds lame, but in fact extremely painful, and sitting in front of a computer has not been recommended. But, I am recovered almost and so here I am again!!

I worried about this being a fact of my Age. But I feel reassured when talking to my dentist the other day, whose girlfriend did the same thing and she ended up having an operation to get better....she MUST be younger than me...in their 30s I think. He's quite dishy, but obviously spoken for. Anyhoos that proves it's not an age thing.

Big sigh of relief. But I have noticed the wrinkles getting deeper, and that is an age thing....Friends and I are busy talking about what to do. Its one thing to look in the mirror and see yourself looking as you expect..its another thing when inside your head you are 16 but what looks back at you is definately over that Certain Age......think about it eh? Depressing? What????

Back again sooner Blog!

Dear Blog.

What did I say? Well slap my wrist with a feather...ouch! Must develop the art of brevity.

Been too hectic at work and then colds/flu/injured back.....all signs of being over a Certain Age that these things knoeck me for six.

Exploring liposuction, fat busting injections, facelifts.........time for some action methinks. My Best Friend from school has had her facelifted- not that she needed it- she only looks about 12 anyway....definately a good advert for facial work!!

Ciao for now

Happy New Year Blog!!

Cant believe its a month since we last spoke..in that time I have been to Prague and solved a murder....amazing what you can do when over A Certain Age. A topical moment becasue of course soon I will be another year older.....time for a facelift and liposuction methinks. It doesnt get any easier. And of course dieting....well what good does that do? Doesnt do anything for me..I can eat or not eat whatever I like and I just keep on getting fatter. Dont get me wrong I am a Size 14, but I used to be a 10...and thats what I notice.

Anyhow i guess I shouldnt be bemoaning my fate, which is so inconsequential in comparison with traumas suffered elsewhere in the world. But this is supposed to be A Certain Age blog, so the content is bound to be somewhat solopsistic...........

anyhoos....blog again soon!

ciao Blog
