ANZAC Day April 25th 2020

https://theglobalherald.com/anzac-day-2020-dawn-service-canberra-abc-news/410766/

Above is the link to the dawn service at the Canberra Australian War Memorial.

2020 is the first time in Australian history that we have been unable to hold our regular services du to COVID 19. I pray we never have to go through this again. Sadly for me I am unable to even see my father who was a service man. He lives several hours away and his nursing home has been in lockdown for two months. I did phone him today, but I miss being able to drive up to see him.

Before I can even do that, I must have a flu shot or I will not be allowed to see him. He is the last living  of my children's   grandparents and we are afraid of losing him.

I take today to thank both grandfathers for their service along with millions that gave their lives for all of  us world wide including current serving members. Let us also pause to remember all of the animals in war for their courage and service too.

Tarot card of the month: May 2020, Five of Swords



Ass kicking time, looks like this will be a month of action.
Keeping this as a basic no frills card of the month at present. 
Times are changing and the clouds are dissipating, no it is not all over yet, but it is the start of the end 
of the pesky COVID 19. Hang in there a bit longer peeps. This is us starting to flatten the curve so to speak, so yes this is good, but we have a little bit longer yet.

Changes are afoot here and some of this is on a financial level. There is not much we can do though but try our best to ride it out. Which can be rather difficult for some individuals 
depending on the welfare system of their country. As I have said in the 2020 predictions we are heading into bad times. It creeps in slowly as it affects some people but not everyone.
Some much more so than others.

The man depicted in the card holding three swords is standing tall and looking smug and self righteous.  Not a wise thing he is armed to the teeth to take on his enemies and perhaps COVID 19.
The hair colour reminds me of President Trump as does the self righteous smugness. This is not a good look, not a wise thing to do. He maybe in the right but it depends on how he handles the situation that matters. I do see things going on behind the scenes that we the public are not aware of.
He is gunning to take down two male people. I do not like the look of this. I do feel it will take a couple of months before we see the bigger picture of what is going on.

Meanwhile in Australia for May the weather is cooling down, we are heading into flu season now and we will be hunkering down for that, much as people want to get back to normal, it is best to just chill
a little bit longer. I do see people starting to make home made soup and becoming quite inventive. Lovely, winter soups are a good healthy and cheap meal for families. 
I feel we will see many young people dabbling in the kitchen and combining  a mix various ethnic flavours and coming up with a winner, with  new twists on traditional home cooking. 
With any luck we may have new budding chefs coming out of this, how lovely.

I hear the words "facts laid bare on the table", as I study the little man on the card holding three swords. Notice his right hand gripping the sword, he is itching for a fight, but the advice would be, hold your horses and 
don't start what you can't finish. I feel this could relate to Mr Trump as well as regular people. Emotions are quite high right now so we need to stay cool and also think of others in these very difficult times.
  Pause and reflect on the issue before reacting, get facts right rather than having egg on your face. Hmmm I think there is a lesson for all of us there boys and girls, lol.

Garden time

While the lockdown is going on I do not intend to get bogged down in the whole drama. I am simply just doing things at home that need done and actually having a very peaceful time.

I am spending  time in the garden getting it cleaned up for winter. It is wonderful just touching base with nature and enjoying the energy outdoors. The birds are singing and the weather is perfect right now lovely and warm during the day. The last flush of roses is taking place at present.

So many Of my roses didn’t do well in stone pots over the 45  degree heat and so some went to the tip and the rest are being planted in the ground. Hubby has been amazing with what he has done so far, he does the important stuff and I tag along, lol. I lack the muscle power to do the hard work.

One thing I have learned is the downside of growing ivy over the past few years, hmmm it took off and got way out of control. So now it is  bye bye ivy unless you stay in a hanging basket. I do love ivy but it is just so invasive. The honeysuckle is gone too, having a rambling garden when you are young is one thing, but getting older well that’s just asking for trouble lol.

So simple easy care is the go, it has just taken a while to get the time for both of us to tackle the garden.  I dream of just being able to sit in the garden with nothing to do except enjoy it. It still seems just a pipe dream. But getting out doors is still nice, and I can still lose track of time being there even if it’s just a few minutes. It’s the joy and that feeling when outdoors that I love.

It is hard to believe that just months ago we were in the middle of a bushfire with thick smoke around us. My garden was all dried up and almost dead. Now it is lovely and green after we have had rain over the past eight weeks or so.

So I am very much a happy camper 😀

I was given this by a relative just now. Very interesting reading.
I still feel there are western interests in this bioweapon not just China. But I have no intention of banging on about it.
