DOES AGEING CHANGE US?
Do you ever feel like you're becoming more introverted with age? My husband laughs when I say that I've become an introvert, but I really believe it's true. I'm also becoming a bit of a social recluse these days too - going out to social gatherings seems to have lost its appeal somewhere in the last decade or so. I'm content to be home in my own space and it takes a lot of incentive to get me out the front door. It feels like I'm forcing myself to do something that just doesn't appeal - and life's too short to do that anymore.WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU A WAKE-UP CALL

WAKING UP TO A LIFE I DESERVE
Today I'm guest posting on Sue's blog Sizzling Towards 60 and Beyond. She's begun a new series on Living Well and Ageing Well - a great theme and one we all should be embracing in Midlife.
I thought I'd share 3 valuable lessons I learned from last year where I finally left an extremely toxic work environment behind. I did a lot of thinking and growing after the fallout and progressed through to recovering myself again. In the process I've learned that I deserve to live life well and to live it on my terms.

THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE
I don't know about you, but now I've reached an age where 50 is receding into the distance in my rear view mirror, I've come to accept that I'm in the second half of life and time is fleeting. I don't have time to waste on things that don't grow me, or help me to thrive because, for me, it's now all about focusing on what I can do that leads me towards becoming a better person.A NEW YEAR, A NEW DECADE, AND NEW HORIZONS

A NEW DECADE BEGINS
As we were launching into 2020 I noticed there were comments about a new year and a new decade, and it got me thinking about what that means for me. I haven't really considered decade changes much before this one, but I feel like 2020 holds something a bit special - maybe it's the fact that the numbers look so nice and neat (I'm a little bit OCD when it comes to things like that). I'm also feeling that the decade ahead is going to be a good one too because it's the first one for a very long time that I'm going into with absolutely no idea of what lies ahead.LIFE'S SHORT - LET'S CREATE OUR MIDLIFE SYMPHONY

DISCOVERING MY SYMPHONY
Over the last few months (since turning the big 5-8) I've been thinking a lot about the fact that life is getting shorter - I'm definitely into the second half of my life now, and I want to live it well. I keep coming back to the idea that the first half of life was a preparation time where I figured out what was important and what I wanted to discard. And now it's all about making the years ahead real, and authentic, and worthwhile. As I mulled all this over, I wondered how I’d condense the idea of living well down to one word for my Word of the Year (WOTY) and then I realized that a quote I loved from William Henry Channing had done it for me – and it all came together in his very last word…..

IF WE WERE HAVING COFFEE
If we were having coffee these are a few things I'd be sharing from December - my Christmas break is over, the celebrations are finished, the family's gone home, the tree's packed away, and we've begun a new year - which I'm very excited about. But first, because I always enjoy a good 'Taking Stock' blog post, I hope you'll humour me and sit a while as I share my news. There's nothing like a virtual cuppa and a chat, and I have lots to share from the last few weeks.MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

CHRISTMAS
In a few days it'll be Christmas Day - I'll be sharing time with family and taking a break. I love that this time of the year is when we slow down - and this year I plan to take it a step further with my Unbusy Christmas and in the week leading up to New Year.MIDLIFE SHARE THE LOVE PARTY #99
