Oh good lord. How did this happen? Tomorrow I will be half a century old ... half a century!! Yet I feel exactly the same (the odd ache & busted back aside naturellement) as when I was 18. How does that happen? The brain stays young & sharp whilst the body & bottom get squishy & saggy and the facial "laughter lines" are harder & harder to hide ... all this despite my penchance for spas & sweating & puffing on the trusty X-Trainer at least 3x a week ... hey ho.
And apologies the blog has been bare for a long time; after my complaining "no work, need a job" post I suddenly got inundated and have been pulling 18 hour days & working weekends just to keep my head above water - and to make sure I can go out for a lovely slap up 50th birthday meal - I have booked the tasting menu at The Chalk Lane Hotel for friends & family tomorrow night - the lovely place where we had our wedding reception. Then at the weekend I shall play queen bee & host a heap of my favourite people chez nous & really enjoy the fact I have made it this far in 1 piece!
