10 for 10

It's been a while, but don't think I've forgotten you. I think of things to say and never sit down and tell you. Although I still haven't told you how it is working with children I wanted to mention the best deal in New Zealand. The preface: because the US dollar has been so much stronger compared to the NZ dollar in the past things are priced quite differently here. Most thing are typically twice as much here or even more. Something that looks worth $15 will be priced $30. Due to this I've experienced sticker shock on the stupidest consumable goods. For example, I was in a home store and a metal pedal top trash can was $150. It wasn't big, maybe 2 feet tall, it didn't have some eco-friendly, ergonomical design that made it look special, it was a metal trash can. Please don't ever spend $150 on a generic trash can. Bringing me to my point. As I have mentioned before I have four clear television channels so maybe this matters to me for other reasons. But the best deal offered in New Zealand is located at Blockbusters movie rental. 10 movies for $10. No new releases, but its given me a chance to catch up on some classics. I've seen most of them before, but some are new to me. And the trick is can someone even watch 10 movies in 7 days. You've got to be quick. But that is my favorite deal in New Zealand. So I'm going to end this post and immediately start a new one. I've been gone for so long I want to separate my thoughts and plans. Thanks for reading. I love and miss you.
