Wait for it..... surprise!
Were you surprised?
Probably not, but how nice would it be if you were surprised by your partner with something you love, especially after a long day?
A positive and thoughtful surprise is a great way to connect. How good would you feel if you surprised your partner with one of their favorite things? How good would they feel?
Both of you would likely feel pretty great, so here are some ideas to try:
Cook your partner's favorite meal for them
Bring them breakfast in bed and enjoy the morning together
Write them a love letter by hand and mail it
Send them a random, loving text in the middle of the day
Throwback: make them a mixtape or CD of their favorite songs (a playlist works, too!)
These are just a few small things you could do any day of the week, and you don't even have to spend money. As the saying goes, the best things in life are free.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated

Documenting the RiverLink Project around Melling, Pharazyn St and Marsden St
Kia Ora, Neighbours. For the last couple of years I've been documenting with my camera the changes in my area around the extensive work going on with the RiverLink project (Melling Interchange/New Melling Bridge/New Melling Railway Station/ Melling Station walk bridge / Clearance of Pharazyn St and Marsden St and Stop bank work).
I pass no judgements on the work. My photos simply record what's happening.
Early blog posts are photo essays of the the demolition of Pharazyn St and Marsden St residential and industrial properties. Later photos are the more up to date records happening right now.
I'd welcome your feedback, especially with better information about what's happening, as there seems to be a number of sites specialising in their own work but not a comprehensive coordinated site with details and links.
Here's the link. Enjoy. www.riverlinkphotos.blogspot.com...
