Martial Artist, Archer, animal lover, walker, gamer, been told I'm great at what I do! (huge complement, that was), gets things done (at work, not that great at home though) and loves husband so much!
There are few in the world outside my close family and friends who have made me feel heartbroken when they have passed - and Jane Goodall is one of those.

My husband knows how much an animal lover I am and I've always admired the same thing in her.

Jane, you will ALWAYS been remembered 💚

I am just so disappointed and ashamed of how the National Party talks about what New Zealanders want which was the reason why they decided not to acknowledge a Palestinian state. How dare they say that! They so need to go next year, VOTE THEM OUT! They have destroyed NZ and New Zealanders lives!

There was the most absurd statement put forward by the leader of the New Zealand National Party: www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

What really annoys me is that the country was tripping along quite well, and then National came in and changed the road trip while constantly blaming the Labour Party.
Poll says more Kiwis back Labour on cost of living. They’re the ones who made this mess, says Luxon
The latest poll showed National’s perceived ability to handle the crisis was plummeting.

Just watched a short video of today's meeting between Trump and zelensky all bout him wearing "a suit" this time as it seemed back in February at that atrocious meeting one of Trumps "advisors" complained he wasn't wearing a suit. Some people's priorities are just incredible i.e. Trump "Advisors"

Well, I've been watching my fair amount of YouTube lately and I've come to the realisation that the Democrats DO HAVE A VALID POTENTIAL CANDIDATE - you know who it is! It's Jasmine Crockett!!

So, I'm watching "The Last Seven" on YouTube. 13 mins into it, about a chat who's woken up on the ground in London, starts walking around and there is no-one....he then sets off an alarm in a car to try and get some human response...I'm thinking "did he not see 28 Days Later????

OPINION: You had a disproportionate impact on politics last year. Whether the difference you’ve made will be for better or worse remains to be seen.

I find it's amazing that the government is providing more sanctions for those that have lost their jobs and have gone onto a Jobseeker benefit to survive. Have a read of this: www.beehive.govt.nz/release/new-...

I really try to avoid reading any news that comes out of the US - it's just far too depressing and I feel for the people who didn't vote that man. Maybe the Democrats will stop thinking that having a celebrity can help sway the vote and get some real work happening.

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.
