At long last
Wow! I have not posted anything to this blog for so long I had to relearn how to do it.
Mother has had her angioplasty and came through it reasonably well considering her age. She is definitely failing - which is only expected at 92.
While we were in Perth, or rather Margaret River in Western Australia, Mother kept very well thank goodness.
I will post some photos of Matthew and Bronwen's wedding. The wedding was just lovely and was held under a pergola overlooking extensive lawns and gardens. The weather was fabulous, not too hot, not too cold.
Had a lunch with the old New Yorkers ladies today. This will be the only Christmas function I will be attending this year.

I've tried to get rid of the photo of Matt and Bron with the marriage celebrant without success. It is not very flattering.

At last
This is the first time I have used my new computer to write to my blog.
Yet another trip to Sydney doctor for a couple of procedures with my eyes. We are leaving here on Sunday and staying with Joe and Sandra. They will be a little distressed at the moment as they had to have their dog put down this morning. Having to have two dogs "put down" I can really feel for them.
Lily heads off on her big adventure to France on Saturday. I have the usual misgivings regarding her trip but on the other hand am absoltely delighted that she has the opportunity to do it.
Audrey and Jae welcomed a little girl into the world yesterday. Sofia.
Mother has her 92nd birthday next Friday. She is VERY frail.

Jessica in Japan
I have just read Jessica's blog. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing of their family life in Japan.
Makes our life seem terribly mundane. For instance today I cleared out some of my old clothes that I no longer want - went to visit Mum - cooked dinner and packed my bag for yet another trip to Sydney to see my doctor. I will be going to Sydney on the bus and staying overnight with Joe and Sandra. What would I do without them?

Matthew's visit
We have just had a lovely day/night with Joe,Sandra, Danielle and Matthew. Matthew came across from Perth for a conference in Sydney and they took the opportunity to come here to visit with Mother. They came Saturday and left Sunday.
Melissa, Paul and Eve came over for a Chinese takeaway last night. Lily was having a birthday sleep over party. Nice night with lots of catching up.
Tonight we are going to the famous Hellenic Club to celebrate Eve's birthday. (Can't believe she is 12).
