| Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland |
We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.
This week we have:
- Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date.
- I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink.
- We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out.
- And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally? I actually think it's rude that week after week I add my blog links to memes and link ups to never have an acknowledgment whatsoever.
- 1st September has passed - it's now officially Spring.
Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Tom's Signs.

I agree, it feels only fair that blog hosts engage at least occasionally with those who contribute
Beautiful photo!
I only join one link up and the blog hosts and others in the link all socialize the linked blogs.
Ingo turns 60 soon and instead of coming here his family expected us to come to their place. No. They are retired, we work!
But I wish you loads of fun with yours.
Yes, I expect a comment when I join a meme, too.
Ack, yes. Darn Autumn here! Please share Spring pics!
I don't expect anything and then it always turns out fine. Hope you have a wonderful family reunion next year.
You should definitely expect a comment, some sort of acknowledgement!
Family get togethers something to look forward too!!
Happy spring to you!
The family reunion is something to look forward to next years,
Quite a few sites I used to link up to in the past have closed. The ones I still link to sometimes do respond now and then - or if not the host, some fellow participants - so it's not something I've given all that much thought.
Happy spring! The family reunion sounds like fun. It's been many years since we've had a family reunion. I'm afraid it may never happen again, as we are spread all over the place and a lot of people are struggling with health issues.
I try and reply to every single person that links to Skywatch Friday. Sometimes if a lot is going on and I don't catch everyone. To me it is part of the ethic of hosting. Now if you are hosting something that has a huge number of linkups then I am much more forgiving.
thank you, I know you do, it is much appreciated.
I don't expect anything but I don't post to many blogs like that. The family reunion sounds like fun. Happy Spring!
I don't expect the meme host to respond. I use it as a platform to share and am happy when other participants respond.
The family reunion sounds good!
Beautiful photo. I agree, it is rude if the blog host doesn't visit those who linkup.
I agree the blog host should visit every one that links in, however, I really don't mind much if they don't.
Worth a Thousand Words
We had a windstorm here last night, but could use rain instead.
