  • The sun shone, then it rained and after that we had both at the same time :-)

    September 20, 2026

    Yes very mixed weather here today. The only time it was sort of stable was when we had our morning walk. Mostly sunshine then and only a few clouds disturbed the rays journey towards the ground. I was exception everything being soaking wet today so I wore my rubber boots. The grass was a bit…

  • More mushroom picking.

    September 19, 2026

    I had planned on having a long nap today, instead I once again fried mushrooms in butter. The last time that resulted in 1,496 Kg (around 3.3 lbs), today I can put 993 grams (2,2 lbs) in the freezer again 🙂 To be honest I do eat a lot of mushrooms but I don’t think…

  • I’ll only pick the tastier ones from now on :-)

    September 18, 2026

    I’m so tired that it feels like I could sleep the entire weekend. Lots of heavy lifting and in a fast pace has worn me down 🙂 🙂 I will however most likely wake up at 4:30 am tomorrow like I always do. The dogs only need that I slightly open an eye and down…

  • I’ve done my duty.

    September 13, 2026

    So today we have the elections for a new parliament and also elections for our regions and counties. We always have our elections on the second Sunday in September so we know that as many as possible can go and vote. We can of course pre vote but I don’t think we can send any…

  • A busy day.

    September 12, 2026

    I would have loved to sleep a little bit longer today but I woke up at 4 am and since the dogs noticed I had very little choice than to get up, go outside and check if Doris the badger was in the or not before I could let the dogs outside. Also, the Monster…

  • I forgot to bring a basket.

    September 11, 2026

    I think it was supposed to rain all afternoon but so far I think the worst we’ve had is some light drizzling 🙂 Well the weekend is young so there’s plenty of time for that rain to start falling. I just took a look at those weather sites and they’ve decided that the rain most…

  • Mushroom season.

    September 10, 2026

    I still can’t say much about my new job since I mostly help other people since some people are sick, still I can say I like the people in the factory though and that’s the important thing. I’m moving my back a lot all the time and that helps with the rheumatism in my spine,…

  • Two of my favourite weathers.

    September 6, 2026

    The day started misty and cool and turned to foggy after a while and after that we’ve had mostly sunshine and around 20C (68F) all day long 🙂 We walked down to the creek and followed it down-stream a while before we turned towards home again. Everything was soaking wet after yesterdays rain so I…

  • Heavy showers and thunder.

    September 5, 2026

    This spider lives at one of the kitchen windows, looks more scary than she actually is 🙂 So we were supposed to have rain all day today so I wasn’t the least surprised that the sun shone here for several hours. The rain did come after a while though and how it rained 🙂 Heavy…

  • Cloudy.

    September 4, 2026

    It was so dark this morning, the rain was falling and I couldn’t see a thing outside the windows when we woke up. I went outside to see if Doris the badger were here and then I let the dogs outside. They barely stayed out long enough to do their business to be honest. I…

  • A rather nice day.

    August 30, 2026

    The rain is pouring down and all it took to make it start was my neighbour going outside working on their cottage 🙂 🙂 We did have some sunshine during the early day but clouds arrived pretty early and we had some drizzle as worst. Ten minutes in on him going outside and the rain…

  • The beginning of autumn?

    August 29, 2026

    I’ve already felt that there’s change in the air but even though it has been rather warm today that feeling is much stronger. Could be because the trees now are dropping their leafs but I think that’s mostly because of the drought we still have despite the latest rain and perhaps because of the rain…
