It's a beautiful New Zealand winter day!

It was a cold one last night - the forecasted low was 1*C (about 34*F)....burrr! Fortunately, due to the late-night Warehouse run last night to buy an extra blanket, we were nice and toasty in bed. And now with our fire going (albeit a 'fake' gas one), at least the living room is nice and toasty. The good thing about New Zealand is that although it gets cold at night, it warms up nicely during the day. Yesterday warmed up to 15*C (60*F), which made for quite a pleasant day. I think the highs today should be pretty close - especially since there's not a cloud in the sky. Don't suppose there's much to complain about when the average high during the middle of winter is 60*.

Today promises to be a low-key day. I'm home with Taylor today, so no doubt we'll have lots of story time and we'll also try out the new paints that she just got as a belated birthday present. Then of course there's always the cleaning and the laundry to catch up on. And in all my spare time (i.e. naptime), I'll tackle preparations for Friday night's Song of Solomon class. Guess it's time to get going, or nothing will ever get done today!
