Washing out and it had better not rain until itÔÇÖs dry┬á 
 
IÔÇÖm getting a bit over all the ÔÇ£sobÔÇØ stories coming out from the storms. Yes I know it has been extremely hard for some but itÔÇÖs time people started taking some responsibility for themselves and realise that┬áemergency services, council etc are real people who also live in the affected areas with families and property which probably are going through exactly the same as everyone else.
Having been through several tropical cyclones and a size 8 earthquake┬áoverseas IÔÇÖve seen┬áhow the local people looked after each other and themselves first and how appreciative of any help, however small,┬áthey get.┬á
Makes me realise just how self-centred and entitled New Zealanders have become. 
HouseworkÔÇÖs not going to do itself so better get going before I get sidetracked onto something more interesting┬á┬á
