Sitting out an extended lockdown, coupled with a load of brainwashing and bribery to gain our freedoms for summer, has created a tedious boredom in our already narrow horizons! Most humans are over it, few read the news, watch the live updates and are unaware of Daily “Cases”…. We just don’t care, for the most part it’s not going to kill us anymore than other ailments we have lived with since babies! And vaccinated or not vaccinated……yawn! It just doesn’t matter, it’s like a last ditch attempt of the powers to be, to grasp at the control of a non communist society!
Anyway, some great things can still happen!
The sea is calm and summer warmth is filling our days – an evening walk along a peaceful waterfront! We live in a pretty amazing place, when the evening is quiet and the residents have their world back!
The ever changing colours of our world, some things that can never be taken away from us!
A Birthday….party for three! And Cake for 10! Roast Dinner, bubbles and cake!
Peonies in bloom – in the morning a bud and by evening in full bloom – the size of a side plate! Only grown in the South Island and a November treat for the lucky ones!
When sharing is caring – friends drop in fish – Dan fillets – Sue Preps – Lex makes salad and the Webber (BBQ) does the rest!
Work has been frantic – the narcissist left just as we were expecting four containers – all full of product our customers are desperate for – yes they all arrived and the awesome team of four have been doing long days – and weeks ! Consequently yours truly is putting a few miles on the clock, burning some rubber in a 130km round trip to work each day!
AND the dreams do come true bit….
Jaxon and his family have bought and moved into a house is KatiKati. They seem very happy in their new life – my granbaby is becoming a digital image – about once a week Jaxon FaceTimes me when he has Tyler on his knee, He seems to smile and recognise – and eat the phone!
George is a starting a new job and new ventures!
Dan is flat out with work – and my Reno’s are scheduled for January!
And Trudi is in Australia! Yep she can fly to Australia without quarantine but can’t go to Hamilton (an hours drive from Auckland) At least some dreams do come true and there is hope and granbaby hugs for my BFF!
One last thing – when the wine bottle is not a screw top – call in the tradies! (Like who owns a corkscrew anymore!)
All who wander are not Lost girls
