AUCKLAND BOUND

 Well it's likely to be a sad day.

I'm off to Auckland bright and early to attend the funeral of my Aunty Jean.

She was 82, just a year younger than my Mum.

The funeral in is Howick, Auckland at 11 am, so I need to be leave fairly early to ensure I get there on time.

While I'm up in Auckland, I might pop into Ribbon Rose... cos I'll be in the area already (sorta).  lol

And Sylvia Park too.  But that will depend on how long the funeral goes.

I don't want to be away from home all day, as we will have family visiting.

AND I want to get Stew to make me a jig saw puzzle board, with edges, so no pieces can inadvertently fall off and get lost.

Cos that might have happened to the last 2 puzzles? Dunno.

I'm just trying to avoid any losses with my bigger, 2,000 piece puzzle.   I don't want to even start it until I am sure it's safe from losses.

Alrighty, I better get moving.  

Catch ya later.

ABOVE: Howick Beach. Visited quickly after the funeral. Homeward bound now.

ABOVE:  So thankful that Stew was able to accompany me to my Aunt's funeral.  I don't think I would have been too happy attending on my own.  It was hard going to yet another one so soon.

ABOVE:  Thanks to our wonderful Bex for babysitting Keera for us, AT OUR HOME.

ABOVE:  And a HUGE thank you to Lacy for giving up half of her Saturday with Keera, so we could go to Auckland together.  She came over to our house, AFTER we arrived home from Auckland.

I am NEVER going to forgive the lack of empathy and compassion shown to us by some people.

UNFORGIVEABLE behaviour.  They are the lowest of the low.

And now we are going to have a lovely afternoon with the family.

ABOVE:  Meantime... Steve is hard at work, being 'supervised' by our friend Richard.  Steve's doing some work for him during the weekend.  I have to laugh at the beers lined up on the wall. 😄😆😅

So much to do

So, I'm going to bed.
