How are you all?
I just wanted to check in and ask how everyone is doing?
I know things are really tough, right now, so I thought “why not have a say”. Is life good, bad or fair to middling, for you?
Tell us what’s good, bad or so so, and let’s see if we can lift a few moods, or ease a few burdens.
For me, my hot water cylinder is an ongoing pain in the posterior, but today I got to drive a group of lovely people out to Waimarama Beach and enjoy the scenery and the view, on a spectacular, springlike, winters day, and it recharged my batteries. It was awesome.
So, how about you?
