Good morning - last night was so awful slept with the doors open with just the locked security doors closed - heavy rain later is forecast hopefully it might clear the air but it won’t
Pleased you had some progress on Mr Ps meals Popeye - half the problem is they are all so short staffed - a woman I know in her late sixties works for one of the agencies the DHB send in to vacuum and clean the shower etc in pensioners homes - she is now being sent out in the evening by the agency to one of the local resthomes who haven’t got enough staff and she feeds the residents and settles them in bed - she has so many on her roster she said she hasn’t got time to actually care for them - unfortunately she needs the income but it sure is upsetting her - Mr P is lucky to have you Popeye
Finally gave my grandson his blanket - was over the moon - it’s an illusion the stripes appear to disappear down into a crater - so hard to explain - can’t put photos on here using my iPad - he was wrapped - it suddenly hit me I can’t give him a hug - one of his friends got covid at that concert and there is covid in a primary school out near his - so that was sad - the whole thing hit me - he had his mask on and we had to keep away from each other - he is a big 17 year old and his bear hugs are sorely missed - what a different world we live in Have started a small one Dr Seuss and two thingees - had all the colours in my stash - every week I am going to weave in the ends I am not leaving them all to the end !
Hope the protest in Wgtn ends peacefully - you have to feel for the business people around who can’t open their businesses but I do understand people need to be able to protest - my Mum joined the anti apartheid march - I took the kids to town to watch her march through the Main Street of Napier - she was such a tiny lady but she certainly could chant -
Have some more beetroot to bottle better get cracking
