what do you NEED - (& what do you want)

Julia from Henderson

there may be other version of this elsewhere - but right here, right now


what do you NEED:

I have:

3 children's soft toys that need a home
some soft toddlers playing block
some children's library books
some of my books for children (big book of bedtime stories)
4 sets of shoes for little people (*was* going to say little girls - but know lots of adults (and some young people) with non-binary gender/identity
lots of books for adults - already lent some to my neighbour on one side - neighbour on other side doesn't need/want at the moment - all good
DVDs - not many - happy to share

what else?? went to Countdown Lincoln Road last night - no queue - everything re-stocked - LOTS of safety measures - not only "normal'"
better than 'normal ' people being nice, lovely, loving, kind, thoughtful caring and compassionate to each other - kiwis being kiwis

kiwis being kiwis - helping each out in time of need
simply who WE ARE, right? agreed?
kiwi people, culture, society - COMMUNITY - FAMILY - WHANAU


"STAY SAFE"
new words - we have ALL been SAYING to each other -
"stay safe" - spreading like an infection - oh this virus is weak -

"STAY SAFE"
LOVE - AROHA -
PEOPLE - COMMUNITY - WHANAU
KIA KAHA - WHO WE ARE - KIWI


WORDS - ARE STRONG - POWERFUL - IDENTIFY WHO WE ARE


WORDS - KIWI WORDS
not just LOVE - AROHA
not just family - WHANAU

KIA KAHA - WHO WE ARE - KIWI


SEEDS -
oh promised someone a plant - finally found that info last night -
oh some of you met me - "crazy" woman with green hair (st Patricks day) and pink hat (early xmas present from lovely flatmate) at the Warehouse on Lincoln Road on... Wednesday -

got plenty TONS of swan plant seeds for butterflies - will grow some for the community (well need to check with experts on *when*) - if someone wants some of these swan plant seedsjust let me know - happy to drop off in your letterbox (weak weak virus experts say - soap & water kills it)

oh so gardening advice - happy to give - post here, or messsage me, would be doing that right now, but lovely lovely LOVELY rain instead (good for the garden - good for everyone - esp people on tank water)

just done this 'local' immediate Henderson area - if can't find a home for these things I don't need - will post wider :)

STAY SAFE - everyone

Suspicious Guy

Jan from Te Atatu South

Keep an eye on this guy, pretended to read the water meter, then wandered up the drive crowbar in hand when I asked what he wanted he said power and is there a dog.We have smart meters. He opened my neighbours gate (we are 3 units) and went in the back of her place with his crowbar. My son went round there and he took off. Police informed.
