Today was Megan's birthday bash.
We had a girls day. Just Meg, me and cousin Emily.
Lunch out. Shopping. Cinema. Shopping. Dinner out. And, best of all, Emily is sleeping over!
Is it bed-time yet??!!!
Their energy and ability to laugh and have fun is utterly amazing. And as for their ability to talk!!! All Ireland Talking Competition....look out! We have a winner! Just keep the pair of them away from the Blarney Stone, that's all I ask!
Seriously though...I have to admit to being a wee bit envious of their energy and, more especially, their joie de vivre. I seem to be lacking in both of the above, and it's not good!
So, I will have to do something about it! I need to laugh more, not take life so seriously. I am turning into an old fuddy-duddy, and I don't want to! Worse still...I think I might be turning into a wifie, and I always swore I would never be a wifie!!! Help!
So, fun things to do when you're nearly 50...on a postcard please...or better still, on a comment below!! Help me to lighten up a bit and get back some of what the two angels upstairs have in abundance.
Today I am grateful for a wonderful, eye-opening, girls day.
Now it really is time-for bed!!
Gratefully yours.

I think you just need to embrace wifiedom and join the club with me and Lins, not sure about Margaret - I think she'd agree with you! Isn't that part of living in the moment and being grateful for what you have and are now? XX
ReplyDeleteAcceptance is all very well and good...but me, a wifie!!! Not so sure!
DeleteYou are not a wifie till you wear knickers with elastic down to your knees !!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh...thank goodness for that! I've a while to go then after all!!
DeleteTrust you to lower the tone Grandma!!! Xxx
DeleteEmbrace wifiedom...never!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI knew it!! You three are planning to stay 39 then! (or is that 49 or 69 maybe) They say wisdom comes with age but I find I'm more dottled than ever, at least being a wifie is an excuse! XXX
ReplyDeleteI think part of growing up (yes we all have to at some point!) means that we have to take things a bit more seriously... Mortgages, jobs, responsibility means we all have a tendency to become a bit of a wifie!!! I think the secret is to find something that makes you feel young, makes you laugh and let's you forget about all those responsibilities for a wee while every day. Xxx
ReplyDeleteMy goodness...this post has certainly piqued everyone's interest, going by the comments! But, thank you Kirsty! Finally an intelligent comment that I can use to enhance my existance...although the problem still remains...WHAT do I do to have a laugh and forget about being a wifie for a while???? Ah, well...one of life's little mysteries, I guess! xx
