Melbourne Cup Day

What a quiet day I'm having today?  Tony has two Dr's appt's so I'm housebound and not much to do.
I do miss the big hullabaloo of the cup sweeps and lunch at a fancy restaurant! we used to do at the clinic. But I did manage to get a bet on so can look forward to watching the big race.
My horse in the Melbourne looked as enthusiastic as this one !!
So now to see how my horses fare in the cup !!!!
Oops! did my dosh!!
Yesterday we had a visit from the provincial of the Oblates Fr Harry Dyer and old and beautiful Fr Donal ( not Donald as he always reminds us) they came for afternoon tea and stayed for over 2hrs it was a great afternoon and we all had a great chat and laugh.

Anne is extremely busy at school preparing her students for their graduation and has bought all the gear to cut and style their hair and cosmetics to do the make up for the night, I do believe God has sent her there as she has made such a difference to these kids, and typical Anne she feeds and clothes half of them and not to mention shelter for some. Hopefully we intend to get some formal wear for the girls and maybe some for the boys as well, I have an appointment at Morayfield Vinnies on Thursday arvo just need to know some sizes.
Really should mow but why do something today when I can put it off until tomorrow!!!!
