Musings from the shores of Lake Taupo

Nine pins

Well covid blessed our house and went through the family like nine pin bowling. The only one spared was my daughter Caitlin but the rest of us, yours truly included, had to dance with it. Two sons my wife and I. Now I have had far worse flu in the past but this left us sick for a few days and not at top of game. We also had to isolate and try to learn to get on with each other. We are still in one piece so it seems to have worked. Two of the kids are already back at work and last one starts Monday. What else can happen. Took wife for a drive today and we both enjoyed it very much. Simple pleasures these days. What a world we are in. No rain in March yet but a lot of wind. We are approaching drought conditions. Our govt is still not worth discussing. Govt and opposition are just one big party these days and our media have long since lost the right to be called such. Oz tourists are allowed back in April thank God for that at least. So a depressed entry but it is reality. And Ukraine goes on and on.
