A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Leanne - I blog about enjoying Midlife - and thriving in your 50s and onwards. I'm loving every minute of my life, my marriage, my family, my friends, my retirement at 57, my hobbies, and Midlife in general.It hasn't always been this way and I share the valuable life lessons I've learned since turning 50 that revolve around letting go of the things that complicate life and cause pain. I'm embracing people and choices that bring happiness and it's about being grateful for my blessings which include:
- A strong and steady marriage that has weathered the storms of life.
- Children who are independent adults and thriving in their own lives.
- Two beautiful granddaughters.
- Friendships that have stood the test of time and have grown stronger.
- Financial stability - although we don't have piles of money to spare!
- Simplifying our lives by spending less, owning less, and appreciating what we have.
- Enjoying an unexpected early retirement and sharing it here on the blog.
MY FAMILY
Family-wise, I have a husband named Ross who I have been married to for 38 years, through many ups and downs and in-betweens, and we are still going strong. (That's him with me at the top of the page).
