Timezones are so silly. New Zealand and Australia are in 2026, Canada is in 2025, and the United States is in 1939.

Every day that passes without support is harder than the one before.
All I want in these cold days is a warm blanket for my children, medicine for my husband, and to buy our basic needs.
I am still in need of your support
you are my only hope.

This morning’s beautiful weather coincided with our walk. It had been raining this morning when I put the washing on, & ut’s gone cloudy again since, so it was very well timed.

Also, we had the good fortune of meeting one of our neighbours, Kobe (the golden retriever). He was doing what it said […]

I broke my tooth last night & am very grateful to Claudia at Bell Hill Dental (in Dunedin) for fixing it today for me. She had to take the old amalgam filling out before she got to work.

I am not a usual client for them, so I’m extra grateful they had space for me at this time of the year.

The pixelfed.nz instance appears to be broken. Something isn’t running. My posts there aren’t making it out here to followers. People I’m following on other servers, except Cyanistes, never have posts arrive.

Anyone know who can restart whatever is missing?

Today I was in for more blood work at the hospital & no people were in the waiting room. Just me.

Last Thursday I was here & there wasn’t an empty seat. They had a sign saying there was a 90 minute wait for blood tests.

My daughter Kenzi, instead of going to school, has to go to a water filling station every day to fill up five to seven gallons of water. Your help will open doors to her future. She is a beautiful and ambitious girl who dreams of studying English. https://gofund.me/eed6031c

This morning at the hospital the queue for blood tests was 1 1/2 hrs. I was able to skip the queue because I was having a time sensitive test, but holy moly 😳

Apparently South Dunedin was out of service today & I guess everyone was going to the hospital. I think they were still taking folks who […]

12 months ago, I realised that I was not living out my own values. As a whānau, we committed to a #nobuyyear2025 where we only bought essentials.

A year ago, I had a 3 year old who was almost impossible to take shopping because she would beg for every random toy […]

ACT and their Atlas Network operative leader, David Seymour, are the tail wagging the National + ACT + NZF coalition. Luxon conceded pretty much everything ACT required from National. Perhaps he is more right wing than National is, but also wanted the reins of […]

I have a question for you lovely folks.

We’re looking at getting a BYD dolphin, but the car comes with sport seats.

My body finds standard seats just perfectly, thank you very much, & does not like my head being shoved forward. No really, it doesn’t. It’s complicated, but I need to change the […]
