Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 7-4-2023 — World Health Day.

7th April, 2023.

It’s officially official: I have no money in the bank.

And am due the letter about the decision is due, today.

I’m frustrated: at the lack of any cash … and the lack any information.

The frustration … ?

Is getting a bit much.
