I really haven’t done much today besides napping for a couple of hours and going through the dogs checking for ticks. The rainy weather really brought out those nasty critters again. We have very few slugs and snails though so that’s at least something.
It stayed towards the chilly side until noon today. It was mostly cloudy but as soon as the sun showed between the clouds it warmed up pretty quickly. We went out on our morning walk just after five am and unfortunately that was enough warm for the forest flies to start annoying us all. There were even some horse flies and I can now tell You that we’ll have a few less next years since I killed any of them that landed on me 🙂 Still they managed to give me a couple now quite itching bites.
Yesterday I ordered a few rolls of films to my bigger cameras, it’s hard to get any now days and I’m not sure if it is because of the war in Ukraine or if it was during the virus they stopped producing those films. Today however I ordered a tin box with bon bons from Quality Street. I don’t have many memories of my father but I do remember that every time he came home (he was a sailor) he always brought a box with Quality Street bon bons. They are really hard to get around here so this box actually comes from Denmark. Hopefully it’ll arrive in the middle of next week 🙂
We’ll have much the same weather tomorrow they say, a bit on the chilly side in the morning but it will never really be warm at all, it won’t reach 20C (68F). I’m ok with that since they’re guessing it will be slightly warmer the coming week, no rain though and we really would need some more to be honest. Then again with no rain I’ll be able to finally mow the lawn and with no rain the grass will grow much slower as well 🙂 🙂
It is time to get something to eat and then doze off in front of the tv, like always 🙂 🙂 The swedish ladies will play against the ladies from the Netherlands later tonight in the European football (soccer) Championship. I might watch that, otherwise I’ll just check videos on Youtube or Facebook all evening 🙂
Have a great day!

Hi Christer,
I’m not generally a fan of roses but that one you have picked for Theodor is lovely.
The poppies with the purply blue flowers are a stunning color combination. Orange and purple just go together so well. In spite of what people always told me.
Saturday weather was a little humid in the morning but it dried out and got cooler later on. This morning (Sunday) was actually chilly. I had to turn off the fans because my feet were getting cold. 😀
Have a great day.

Hi Caryn!
I don’t mind wild roses because they aren’t fuzzy at all but most of the rest seems to get all kinds of diseases all the time and I really don’t want to deal with that. I have however read that this one is pretty healthy as are the other not wild species I have as well. This one is beautiful and will become pretty big they say.
Orange and purple are a perfect combination! I know people say it isn’t but they are soo wrong 🙂
Much the same weather here today as yesterday, a bit on the chilly side but it was quite nice to be honest. We’ll have a short lived period of slightly warmer weather coming in and as long as it isn’t as nasty hot as the last time I won’t complain 🙂
Have a great day!
Christer.
