The operation that wasn't

I went to Bendigo Hospital this morning to have a Coronary Angiogram performed on me. Unfortunately, for various reasons it did not happen and had to be rescheduled for later.

My first shave from a barber

Yesterday, I did something I have never done before. I went to the barber to get a shave. I was feeling a bit low and thought that I would treat myself to a shave. It cost me $30.00 but it was fun. Souns a bit silly, but it felt good.

A hospital visit.

Today, I paid a visit to the local hospital to get a check up on my heart. The news was not entirely good, unfortunately. The doctor told me that my heat was only pumping at about 55 percent. They have scheduled for mw to come back and have a trachiometry so they can look further. Lwt's hope and pray for the best.

Electric car show at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre

Today, I attended the Electric car show at the Exhibition Centre in Melbourne. It was not bad, although nothing too exciting.

Easter passion play at Rosalind Park in Bendigo

Last night, I attended the Easter passion play which was held at Rosalind Park in Bendigo. It was a performance put on by the local churches and it was a great production. I got to take a few nice photos of the event, which can be seen on my facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/gerard.gates.

A good day at last.

I finally had a good day after a week of frustration. My internet had stopped working for a week or so. However, my good friend Gary Davis helped me to get things up and running again. I now have my internet woes sorted out. And also at last, I got my new debit card from the ANZ. I had ordered it weeks ago and it had not arrived until today.

My mothers funeral

On Tuesday the 17th of December, a funeral was held for my late mother at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, which is located at Clear Island Waters on the Gold Coast. I flew up for the service as did several members of my available family, including brothers, sisters, cousins, her grand children and great grandchildren. The funeral was actually a very nice affair. It was more of a celebration than a bereveament. My wonderful mother was 98 and had a terrific innings. She will be sorely missed, but we know that she is in heaven with dad and my sister Judith right now. I must give the good Lord thanks for such a wonderful mother. Praise the Lord.
