Standard time again.

DSC_0001 (15) — I’ve worked with my little hand held chain saw 🙂

Just after I went upstairs to the computer Albin barked by the entrance door and then ran up to me. A little while after I heard something hitting or something lie that the kitchen door. I do hope it is the neighbors cats jumping after moths 🙂 🙂 🙂 Could be a fox too but I haven’t seen any in quite some time.

DSC_0003 (8) — My little Red (?) oak. It never get more color than this. It’s very sheltered so it might never get hit by frost until after it has changed colors in autumn.

I didn’t win the one billion one hundred and ninety five million kronor jackpot on the lottery last Friday so I’m aiming on the one billion two hundred and ninety five million kronor jackpot tomorrow 🙂 Since I’ve promised that if I win that much I would give everyone at work (those working at the factory floor, not the ones with their own offices) a lot of money I’ve realized that I most likely would have to move from here. It would be impossible to not be known as the rich one. The risk of waking up one day looking straight in to the face of someone wanting my money would be rather big since no one would know what would be going on in a little cottage at the outskirts of the world 🙂 🙂 🙂 So I thin it would be better to just win the one hundred and fifty million kronor jackpot in the other big lottery we’re having because I’ve never promised them anything if I would win that 🙂 🙂 🙂 (divide with twelve and You’ll have the $ US)

Nothing much has happened here besides we’re now back to standard time again. So naturally I woke up when it was supposed to be 4:40 am but in the real it was 3:30 am. We are supposed to get rid of this time changing but the pandemic delayed it all, most governments were more occupied by other things that to write down their approval on that change. I When they finally do they will have to decide if we’ll keep the standard time or change to summer time all year round and sine we all know how politicians are this can take a decade or two before they can decide that 🙂 🙂 🙂

The Corona virus has hit my work place so several people are at home right now. I do have a sour throat but that could just as well be a common cold. Well as long as I don’t have any fever I’ll go to work. It is time for a cup of warm cocoa and a couple of digestives 🙂

Have a great day!

Hi Christer,
I didn’t win the big Powerball lottery, either. I didn’t play but that shouldn’t count against me. 😀
Maybe I will play the other big one, whatever it’s called. I paid bills today so even if I just got my ticket price back, it would make me feel a bit less poor.
Yes, I think if you won the lottery that you said you would share with coworkers, you would have to move. If you won the other lottery, you could not tell anyone and stay where you are. Maybe you could buy a bit of the adjoining pasture so you would have someplace to plant all those extra little trees and things that you don’t know where to put.:)
We go back to regular time this coming weekend, I think. Back to hours of hanging around in the dark each morning because I don’t want the dogs to wake up and think it’s time for a walk and breakfast.
Have a great day.

  Hi Caryn!
  
  I have to admit that it’s just barely a bigger chance of winning the big winning in a lottery if You actually buy a ticket, but just barely 🙂 🙂 🙂 It’s when the bills are payed the wish of winning the lottery is as biggest 🙂 🙂 🙂
  
  Since I love living here it would be much better to win the smaller one, it would last until I would die anyway no matter how old I would become 🙂 🙂 🙂
  I would most likely try to buy the part where they cut down the forest this summer, no trees there any more so it would be like an empty canvas 🙂
  
  I truly dislike this changing of time! Now I just wake up one hour earlier and that’s just annoying because the dogs knows I’m awake so I have to get up anyway to let them out and when they’ve come indoors again there’s no use in going back to bed. I really need to win at least enough for me to retire from work life 🙂 🙂 🙂
  
  Have a great day!

    I wake up at 4AM almost every morning. It’s a hangover from when I worked and I haven’t managed to break it. But I refuse to get up and start my day before 7AM. Rocky was on board for that right from the start but Piki Dog had to learn that “it’s not time, yet” meant go back to sleep for a bit longer.

    I wake up as latest around five, more normal 4:40 when my alarm usually would start. Now I wake up at 3:30 and it’s so annoying.

Our time change happens in a couple of weeks and so I will remember to change all the clocks before going to bed that night. There are many who would like to do away with the daylight savings time of falling back an hour and spring ahead an hour as many states have done, but not so here in New Hampshire (sigh). The lottery is at an all-time high here as well and Grenville has said he will buy at least 1 ticket because you never know and as they say “you have to be in it, to win it” years ago I did buy some lottery tickets every now and then and won a small amount of money.

  Hi Beatrice!
  
  I only have one clock that needs to be changed, all the others do it by themselves 🙂
  
  No one in Europe wants this change twice a year so I really hope all leaders will sign that document so we finally can stop doing it. Then again they would all need to decide what time we actually will follow after that and that can take ages 🙂 🙂 🙂
  
  One of the lotteries here is cheap so I always play that every week but only when the one with that enormous sum reach high altitudes 🙂 🙂 That one is so expensive that playing it every week would cost a fortune and it would be more profitable to just save the money 🙂 🙂
  
  Have a great day!
