Bubbling Drain

Colin from Tawa

This drain in Oxford Street, Tawa, has been bubbling away for WEEKS. It has been reported to the WCC and when you ring WCC to find out if they are ever going to do something you get, and I quote, this answer "It's on the list"

The WCC don't do the work in a case like this, they contract it out. So when you have found out the job number you have to contact the sub contractor. Surely if the sub contactor is overworked then employ more sub contractors.....if there ARE any.

I have been babysitting for a range of families over the past 6 years and have experience in looking after children ages between 1-12. I love being around kids and participating in activities that they enjoy whether it's arts and crafts, reading, playing out outside, or anything else that they're interested in. I am currently working part-time at Wellington Zoo, my job includes working with the holiday programs and school groups by managing the children and leading fun learning activities. I have my own car so can easily drive myself anywhere in the Wellington region. I am also happy to help with around-the-house jobs and love animals so pets wouldn't be an issue. Overall I am a responsible individual who will ensure your children stay safe and have fun!

If you are interested please either message me through Neighbourly or flick me an email at Emily.hince99@gmail.com

Downsize to a richer, happier life

Malvina Major Retirement Village

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

This is the first of a series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with decluttering expert Peter Walsh.
When helping people to declutter, Peter never starts by focusing on the stuff itself. Every item in your home has a story, so the first step is to think about what that story is.

Maybe you’re thinking about downsizing as you approach retirement but still have all the artwork and toys and books that belonged to your now adult children, and don’t know what to do with them. Perhaps letting go of that old sports equipment means letting go of a vision you had of yourself that no longer fits who you are. Maybe you’re holding onto heirlooms you have no use for because you want to keep the memory of the person alive.

No matter what your situation is, it’s easier to declutter and downsize if you start by identifying the feelings that underlie your attachment to your stuff before tackling the stuff itself.
