Well that seemed to have worked well - I remain confused with user names/passwords/signing in to my Google account - I seem to arrive at a different page every time - it's all about patience I guess.
I just want to share with you a wonderful little piece I found amongst some papers - taken from Good Weekend Magazine July 17, 2004.
"I've been doing a lot of thinking about the future, anticipating my 60th birthday, which, given the way time speeds up once you've hit 30, is just around the corner. And here's what I'm working towards: forget the apologies and the cringing. I plan to borrow from a little-known Nepalese ceremony and be carried aloft through the best streets in town on a palanquin for all the world to see. I can just see the faces of the toned and implausibly right-faced women out walking their dogs as I am carried by shops like the one I passed the other day, where featured in the window is a boudoir pillow inscribed with the saying, "age is a number, and mine is unlisted". Just the thought of it makes me smile (adding a crease or two in the process). But what the hell. By then I hope to be well on my way to ageing dangerously".
Isn't that wonderful - I have passed the 60 mark, and it was not as ghastly as I had anticipated - in fact I thoroughly enjoyed myself - I had two weeks in Koh Samui with my family - what more could I possibly have wanted! And I still am quite surprised when I see a 62 year old face in the mirror ... apart from a few aches and pains, I still feel like a 30 year old!
I went out to Mt Wilson for a drive with my husband one day last week, and took a photograph of this beautiful lady - she sits in an old, gracious garden ... thought I would share her with you.
