Autumn is definitely here now.

It’s not the nicest of days here. It rained quite a lot last night so the humidity is high but the temperature is low. There’s a rawness in the air that tells me that autumn definitely has arrived.

There was actually some sunshine when we were out walking this morning but I can’t say it warmed up the air especially much. No wind though and very few flies around to annoy us. I really think they flies should have given up by now considering we’ve had two nights with below 0C (32F). It should be a sign telling them that it is time to hibernate till next year.

The election for our parliament is tomorrow and I’m so tired of it now. The party leaders in each party behaves like spoiled kids as soonΒ  as they show up on tv. The worst thing is that the outcome is so uncertain that it most likely will take just as long (I think it was 175 days) to make a government as the last time. There are eight parties in the parliament and since many don’t talk to each other it will be very complicated to form any kind of government.

No matter what we’ll all know that the rich will get more rich and the poor will be even poorer and that almost all parties will be blaming the poor for being more poor even though the politicians are the ones to blame, some things will never change I’m afraid.

  1. Hi Christer,
    We’re at the end of Primary elections. My state had it this past Tuesday. The state next to us has it this coming Tuesday and the political ads are bombing our tv channels. Boston is the major media outlet in the area so that’s why that other state’s political ads are on our stations. It’s mostly Trumpish Republicans so the ads are full of crazy stuff. Sadly, none of this stops when the primaries are over. They just slide right into campaigning for the general election in November. πŸ™„
    The weather here is warm and sunny. It’s quite nice, really. Fall is probably our best season.
    Have a great evenin.

    1. Hi Caryn!

      We have all the elections on the same day here Parliament, region and county. So we will at least don’t have to listen to any more political ads after today. We don’t have that many but the ones we have are bad πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

      Today has been mostly cloudy, well up on the mountain where I went to vote there was fog. It is fairly warm though so the kitchen door is open πŸ™‚

      Have a great day!
      Christer.

  2. It is good that autumn has arrived for you, Christer, and unfortunately not here in Nashua, NH. The weather is still rather warm and while I do not want to rush time, it will be nice to go on walks with a light jacket and feel warm instead of wearing a t-shirt and feeling soaking wet after a walk. We also will vote this week in primary elections.

      Well I’m not sure if I like it or not πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ The sun shows much later in the morning and it gets dark so much earlier too. I don’t mind the lower temperature though. Ok I don’t like the mornings with frost but as long it’s warmer during the day I don’t mind that much.

      Still most flies are gone and so far I haven’t been attacked by too many moose flies so that’s something πŸ™‚

      Have a great day!

      Christer.
