Hullo
Testing Testing 123
Is this thing switched on? 
Ok...
I am hanging my head in shame and if I had a tail it'd be surely tucked up beneath me right now!
Yes, me and my tail would be howling at the moon - and I understand that you are probably too busy reading a blog by someone with commitment and grit, powered by an individual with the resolve and determination to share and inspire all corners of the galaxy with a fabulous tale of a day in their life! Perhaps that's been my problem from the get go...aiming too high and with flawed ambitions!?!

So here I am, quietly just creeping back. I'm ready to just talk and tap away at this VintageNobility Blog microphone and imagine I'm on an empty stage, able to sing and dance without a care in the world...what shall I mumble into this? No matter!  If there are any folks up the back, in the cheap seats, I wonder if they would be able to hear me? Can you hear back there?






No matter: let the vocal warm-up here begin because if I can't be at ease with myself on an empty platform then what the heck will happen if or when an audience gathers!?




What do I begin with? 
Well let me begin with the fact that a couple of months ago I hit the big 4 0! 


40 is just a number and it's surely, by now, been written about by women from every village, city and paddock all across the world; but of course I wasn't listening when they wrote their worries, feelings and concerns - because I wasn't 40 - and even in the last couple of years when 40 was but a glimmer on the approaching horizon I was too busy burying my late 30-something self into this busy life around me - and amused that I hadn't crossed into the 40 territory! 


So I've hit this big scary number I can't help but wonder though what the next decade will dump on me? Am I ready for my 40's? Or should I just go on as 39 +1 or perhaps 21...for the 19th year in a row? 

I loved turning 30 - finally felt secure in myself and life - but my 40's will probably introduce some of the more obvious early signs of 'old age' and that scares me - because I still want to do so much with my life, with my husband and my kids - even though the older two are already (technically at least) adults! 





Returning to my blog is a bit like finding myself in a holiday house,
it's still holding all it's glorious potential and memories but I need to fling off the dusty covers, sweep away the cobwebs, open up the windows and let the sweet breezes from my heart and the light of my thoughts start streaming through once more!





March 20th marked 25 years - a quarter of a century - since I met Mr VintageNobility!
Today is 22nd of March
and it is our 23rd wedding anniversary.

Over the last few weeks much has been happening around here,
I will leave you hanging with that,
and assure you that I will be back soon to start filling you in on what those happenings are!

So let the breezes of change begin!
