My 96 year old mum who hardly has a line on her face ( no plastic surgery) and my Sydney daughter. They get on so well. Both chatter boxes. They had a lovely visit. Mum isn’t naturally chubby she’s carrying a lot of fluid as she has heart failure.

Unbelievably it’s grocery delivery day today. I have thoughts about being manipulated to buy expensive brands online. I tried to buy store brand frozen blueberries. They were out of stock online. The sub offered to me was more than $2 more expensive than store brand. Unexpectedly the GDaughter had to make a rushed trip to the local store so I tagged along to get bread as I’d run out on Monday. The freezer was full of store brand berries. This got me to thinking!

@mentallyalex @atomicpoet @fediversenews Seems they are picking and choosing who can join. Elitism as a marketing tool?

@Finch @darnell Shouldn’t it be USA travellers being tested as they have a new variant causing concern? It’s “let it rip”
In my Country. I see no advantage to testing Travellers from China when we have plague laden cruise ships arriving at our major Ports.
