Good afternoon - I put washing on the line including my air cell blanket then scuttled off to help set up the local school breakfast facility worrying as it started to cloud over but all’s well -so many kids will be so pleased to get back to their good start for the day - it is so depressing the school I help has many kids living in motels - their spirit is broken and haven’t a hope in hell of learning - they are worn out before they even get there - living without proper cooking or laundry facilities ,police getting called to adjoining units practically every night ,gang members being allowed to live amongst them with their dogs in units - think the most soul destroying thing is seeing kids put food in their pockets to take home to their Mums. I thank the businesses every day who donate the food so we can do it - rant over
I am a tiger for punishment have started another blanket - this one has Dr Seuss and two of those little thingees with the turquoise hair .Was going to buy wool but looked at how much it has increased so decided to dig in my bins - the only colour I haven’t got is orange for the goldfish but only need 2 metres so it will have to be gold
I see they are closing the gap to three months before your allowed your booster shot which pleases me as I didn’t get my second shot until December as the GP was less than agreeable to me having the vaccine at all - makes me wonder if she was actually not really pro vaccine- have spoken to several people who had the same experience with her
Tip top can’t get ingredients for icebocks ,ice block sticks and the wrapping - you have to ask why we don’t make ice block sticks here anymore - we used to in Taupo but like so many other mills have closed down .My kids are conspiring one is in the supermarket the other owns sawmills so who knows ! It’s really stupid a lot of kiwi manufacturers haven’t got product on the shelf because they can’t get the packaging or containers - but all the regulations specify what they are required to use and it’s all overseas sourced.One thing I hope covid does is encourage kiwi manufacturers to open up again - another rant over
My old boy used to cut my hair - went to the hairdressers a couple of times after he died and thought I can do this - so I now cut my own - only once made a huge mistake and somehow flicked my hair over my head and cut my fringe off at near scalp level - instead of a comb over I had a comb forward to cover it off
Grandson has had a clear covid test after his concert and a clear rat test last night so is coming to pick up his blanket but he will keep his mask on and no hugs and kisses - wish I could put a photo up it’s sure as hell different - will email it to you kiwimade
Need some lunch after all that ranting
