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?

Just noticed the pohūtukawa out in force Officially the start of summer for me when I see that.

Blurry because windy, but you get the picture.

Ah, the Kiwi Christmas tree.

Feeling exhausted all the time and always wanting to sleep so not going great but could be worse I guess.

How's the quality of the sleep you're getting? I feel better on six hours of decent sleep than I do on 8 of the alternative... I have very poor relationship with sleep - specifically the staying asleep part. Better sleep hygiene has helped, but have started taking a mushroom supplement recently that's made a dramatic difference.

My sleep for the most part is okay. I think part of my problem at the mo is likely anxiety related so I'm just always in a bit of a slump.

Might be worth trying a nasal spray or antihistamine at night for a few days. I've noticed people get tired from mild allergies clogging up their overnight breathing.

There was a a bake sale at my work today. I don't know who did the oaty ginger slice so I can't ask for the recipe.

But it's only the 6th 😭

[–] Dave 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Haha whoops! Not sure why I got that wrong, but I've fixed it now 😆

[–] Axisential 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lol, blame a lack of caffeine

[–] Dave 2 points 11 months ago

I was super-tired yesterday, but back to regular-tired today so I don't think I can blame that, though I haven't had any caffiene today so maybe I can still blame it.

Just once, I'd like to see someone block a rail line for a protest, instead of a road.

Or the police actually stop someone driving at 40 in a convoy.

I'm with you!
