Spring time in Auckland is a rambunctious somersault. I have to carry both sunglasses and an umbrella every day and sometimes, I use both at the same time.

Yesterday morning Tofu the bunny went outside because it was fine out, but by the time I got to work, a storm was already brewing. I called The Koala so he could bring the bunny back inside before he left for work.

When I got home in the afternoon, I couldn’t find Tofu in his usual spots. Instead, I found him on our bed. He stayed there all afternoon and into the evening. Our room gets great afternoon sun so maybe he had it all figured out.

Tofu doesn’t jump up and down from our bed as much as he used to. He’s getting old and he is completely blind, but it warms my heart to see him explore the house or hang out in different areas.

Just in case you are wondering, the black, white and gold painting above our bed was a collaboration between The Koala and I. We painted it for a  champagne event many years ago (theme being champagne, hence the gold bubbles). You can’t see it so well in the photo, but underneath the top layer of paint is a completely layer of gold bubbles. It’s possibly the only collaborative painting we have. Our styles are very different but this painting seems to be quite a good mixture.
