Excited to see #SecretSantaAoNZ kicking off. I had loads of fun participating at mid-winter, but I'm still trying to decide if I can juggle it with all the other commitments at this time of the year. will the FOMO overcome the over-thinking?

I support the teachers, nurses, doctors, and all other workers striking today here in Aotearoa. You deserve fair pay & safe working conditions. Our awful government needs to get their priorities in order - less money for helicopters & roads, more money for education & health!

well that's the price I pay for coming out of the shadows & actually participating in one of these things

Slaving over a hot stove is a lot more fun when you pop on Catatonia's International Velvet & holler along. "I put horse's heads in people's beds, 'cause I am the mob." (why yes, I did come of age in the 1990s, why do you ask?!?)

Enjoying some Guy Mont-Spelling Bee (Aus) on this gloomy afternoon. The homophone round is still the funniest, most devious thing ever to come from Guy Montgomery's twisted mind. "I'd like to buy Bye Bye Bye by a bi" 🤣🤣🤣

How's my week going? Just ordered my inner child another Care Bear in an attempt to fight the winter blues.

Tonight's soundtrack while cooking dinner was Dido's Life for Rent. I'd forgotten how much I love this album, and especially this track...

anyone else totally bamboozled by going back to work on a Monday after a three day weekend? or just me & my tiny, broken brain??

Caught up on the feed after a break when the muse struck! #MWSecretSantaAoNZ has been good for getting a head start on making this year's Christmas cards. I got inspired by the wrapping paper on my gift, and I used a few of my new stickers to embellish
June 7, 2025 at 1:17 AM
Thank-you Santa, such a lovely haul! Enough chocolate to fuel my crafting for a day or two 😉, cute pens & stickers, & a funky card. #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

Merry mid-winter secret Christmas to all who celebrate 🎄🎅 Enjoying the opening joy while waiting for my breakfast. I'll get to mine once I've been fed. #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

After a flurry of #MWSecretSantaAoNZ posts, I've gone a bit quiet on here. But I'm still here & getting excited for opening day. It won't be a midnight opening for me, this old lady can barely keep her eyes open past 9pm on a Friday night 😴

My cute new wallet arrived today. Thanks to @thesewphist.bsky.social for upgrading my card storage with some of my fav chonky birbs 😍

Giftee has confirmed receipt, so I can stop worrying if they got it & go back to worrying if they'll like it. 2 weeks to go 😬 #MWSecretSantaAoNZ
Not me stalking my giftee's feed, hoping they mention that a package has arrived 🤞 (and hoping they post pics cos I forgot to & my box was a work of art if I may say so myself) #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

Had enough of work today, just wanna curl up in a ball under my desk. Getting asked to deal with things way outside my area of expertise is making me anxious.

Getting whiplash from some of music contrasts on Coast in the office this morning - from the lovely croon of Dido's Thank-You (which I'm slightly embarrassed to admit I quoted in a speech at my wedding in 2001 😊), to Def Leppard 's Pour Some Sugar on Me 😜

The Secret Santa Gods smiled on me - no queue at the PaperPlus NZ Post counter, handed over the parcel, waved my credit card, and presto, my gift is on its way #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

Having a delightful day in my craft-room wrapping & labeling & writing notes for my giftee #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

3 batches of afghans baked, 1 batch iced so far...gonna be up all night. My contribution to a 70th birthday lunch tomorrow. Gotta get it done tonight as our power is scheduled to be off from 9am tomorrow. So tired 😴

I'd love a card. I make & give a lot of cards & so rarely get them back.
Question for #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

Do you like receiving a card or a letter with your gift?
May 14, 2025 at 7:00 AM
Yay, it's here. Thanks to my efficient Santa! 7 June feels like a long way off...
