Long weekend at Midmar Dam.

Below is my 'coming out of the closet' picture .....I have never been so vulnerable and in your face, but turning forty has been sooo liberating ...In the words of a dear friend .. "If you don't like what you see ...... then don't look!"


It was one of our best holidays! The weather was fab and we all chilled out beautifully. I managed well without my laptop/notebook ..... 4 days ...... now that must be a record!

I love your new approach to life since becoming forty Fifi! You certainly don't need to hide anywhere near a closet with your beauty and voracity for life! I've been trying to take a similar approach and practice showing more confidence around others. I'm tired of caring if people think I'm a weirdo! I like the don't look quote!! Forty IS liberating that way isn't it?

Glad your family was able to take an excursion and MrGee still managed to keep his appointment. Lord be with this sweet family!

FOUR DAYS?!?! How did you manage?! I would have been in withdrawals! :) lol Ah - vacation.... Must have been fabulous!! :)

And, um... Fifi.... you are beautiful. Period. Always have thought so. Kim is right... it is absolutely and inner and outer beauty. No need to be bashful around us. ;)
