Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Anyone doing anything interesting for Labour Day?

Just finished moving all the stuff out of my old house and into the new one. Today I was moving the home gym and I thought it was gonna be a mission but it turned out pretty easy.

The home gym is a running wheel

Ha ha!

I know a really cool fact about running wheels: if you leave them in a field, wild mice use them!

Oh boy, moving house, one of my least favourite jobs.

Me and my 60 year old mum and dad did all the work while my sister and flatmate who are in their 20s did nothing but complain we were putting things in the wrong place.

Most of all I'm glad to be away from my neighbor who assaulted me because even after getting the police involved and trespassing him from the property he is still living there.

I'm pleased you're out of that place, it sounded like such a stressful situation.

Oh I'd forgotten about that drama with your neighbour, I'm glad you're finally out!

I'm so glad you were able to move away from that neighbour!

Ha, must've accidentally saved the post I abandoned at the playground. Was having a nice moment while the kids seemed content playing with some friends from school, but then noticed the oldest was getting a bit sulky, since their friends were playing more with the younger, so had to go back into dad mode.

Still, turned out to be a nice day. Played hide and seek at the playground, which I enjoyed more than I expected. Then got a bus into the city, loitered a bit, got some ice creams. Pretty lowkey, but I'd take it over being at the office.

We took the kids to a pla too 🙂. It's a good day for it.

Not so far but now you mention it I might go and ask if we can do something! How about you?

Had lunch out, stop at a playground. Just enjoying the day off 🙂
