Day 86

seven straight days of rain.....i feel like i am back in auckland, but with no humidity, just an extreme chill in the air.
my love affair with christchurch has mainly revolved around the fact that winter, albeit cold, is full of clear blue sunny days. so for the past week i have had that dream shattered and trodden all over. ok, so it's not winter yet, but it's damn close, and there are no blue skies in sight.....let alone some sunshine. If i had wanted this enforced bedrest i would have at least done some serious damage to my body to justify it. so i could be productive during this time, but seriously, in the uninsulated houses we have down here, you use all your energy just keeping warm.....and now drying one's clothes!!!
