Wow! What a fantastic day!! Had a great afternoon at work, achieved the goal I'd set myself.....and now the Doggies have beaten the Swans and won a place in the Preliminary final against Geelong.....don't know that we are strong enough to beat the Cats but we'll be there trying. Tuesday was Bills birthday so we went out for breakfast with Leeanne & Caiti, we'd had a family celebration with a combined Fathers Day/Birthday brunch last Sunday. My Dad had a green thumb and when we bought our home in Wellington the garden consisted of two really old and wayward rose bushes, Dad came along and pruned them.....right to the ground, I almost cried I thought they'd die, but no they grew and Dad potted several of the cuttings.....after Dad passed on Goldilocks and Carol had one, Robert another and we have one of each....almost every time there is a special occasion, birthday, mothers day, Dad's rose blooms - a sign he is still watching over us - Goldilocks said theirs does the same and Fathers Day was no exception....some beautiful red roses. Decided its time to get a new car, just had the clutch repaired on my car when the clutch went on Bills.........decided on a Proton Savvy as we got a really good trade in for Bills car as is....will be a couple of weeks before it arrives though. St Kevins is hosting a breakfast tomorrow as a thank you to those who helped at the school fair, a very nice gesture.
