for not posting.
It's not that I haven't wanted to... it's just that we have been a hive of activity here at Massie Lodge and only now (after the last visitor, my brother Neil) has left that I have had the time to sit and do it!
Have we been busy? Yes we have.
Friday ... wake up at 6.30am and instantly turn into Martha Stewart and use my magic wand to clean up Massie Lodge for our visitors that were arriving at 2.00pm (I wish!). Not forgetting to help Evan with the Equine residents that also require regular attention and love.
By 1.00pm we have both had it. LOL. The house is spotless, the canine residents have been shuttled out the back house paddock for a few hours (Matilda has the worst habit of chasing the vacuum cleaner.... AAArgh!) and we are both looking forward to kicking back and enjoying the company of our friends from Mt. Tamborine, Michael and Di and my brother Neil (all pictured above enjoying breakfast on the verandah) who is flying up from Sydney for 4 days. (Surely its time to open the bar at 2pm?) lol
After a very big night of eating, drinking and laughing, I woke up a little "shady" on Saturday and had to get stuck into the Berroca to get myself ready for the Warwick Races that day.
After a few (???) more glasses of champagne at the races, I suggest to everyone to come back for dinner on Saturday night.
I call Evan...
"Hello Evan, I think we are having 6 people over for dinner tonight.... what is in the freezer??"
Thank goodness for home-made Pizzas.... lol
After crawling into bed after midnight, we both fall into a deep coma, only to be awakened by Matilda at 7am. Max and Jimmy call out and tell us that they are feed deficient and have to be fed NOW!
Life is sensational.
