We almost had spring for a while.

a (7)

It really was spring like here for a while so I thought I might start here again, then the rain came and now it snows. They tend to change the weather forecasts faster than a spinning wind power plants but at the moment it looks like we’ll get nasty cold nights and barely survivable warm days. That will of course change next second but that’s what I’ve read so far.

So what has happened since christmas? Well I’ve learned, after 58 years why I’ve always had a wobbly stomach. Turns out I can’t eat gluten. I was at the companies health care service and talked with a nurse there. She asked if I had tried to stop eating products with gluten and I said I had bought one of those rather expensive home tests and it didn’t show anything at all. So she said try and stop eat anything with gluten and see what happens. Well I can tell You that I really don’t use much toilet paper now days πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

Now days it isn’t that hard to avoid gluten since it has become fashionable to not eating it. however the bread one can buy is an abomination to anything living so I’ve tried different ways to bake bread with other kinds of cereal and now I have bread that is just like any other except I really can’t make a good French roll but I’ll keep on trying till I get close enough.

I had a few rolls of film developed and these two photos were taken with the Flexaret II

The dogs are all fine and I must say that Alma has calmed down considerable. She would still be considered awful compared to other dogs but she has really tried to listen to what I tell her. Last time we saw a deer she only screamed for five minutes after she last saw it and that’s a huge improvement. More and more cranes are around now and now I can hear them trumpeting from the lake in the mornings. Well I can hear them for the cow pasture on the other side of the road as well but so far they’ve stayed behind a tiny mound so I haven’t been able to see them yet.

Have a great day!

  1. Christer,
    I really enjoy the pictures you take with all the different cameras. It makes me want to use my old 35 mil. camera. It is around forty years old, but it uses film which is expensive.

    I’m so glad you found the cause of your stomach problems. The markets here are filled with glutenless breads. I haven’t needed to buy any so I don’t know how they taste.

    My dogs will eat anything. They are chow hounds. Jack, the cat, is quite picky. What he loves one day he turns up his nose at the next day. I throw a lot of cat food away. It drives me crazy. I am forever trying to find different flavors for him.

    Have a great day!!

    1. Hi Kat!

      I have so much fun using all these old cameras. It is actually hard to find film now days, the virus forced people to do other things so they brought out their old cameras and started to use them. If we’re lucky that means they’ll start making more film so the price get lower again πŸ™‚

      I do miss normal bread but otherwise most things taste just the same as the normal food. Don’t try any of those breads, You’ll only feel sad if You do πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

      Bertil and Teodor only ate one brand of cat food and only two different flavors. That and cheese πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ I do hope You’ll find something that will make Jack happy πŸ™‚

      Have a great day!

  2. Beautiful photos and I’m glad you’re back. We have spring here in Ohio. So far lots of rain and storms with tornadoes but not in my neighborhood. Hope our luck holds. Happy Easter!

      Nice to see You here again πŸ™‚

      I’ll hold my thumbs for good luck to You when it comes to bad weather, I’m so glad we don’t have tornadoes over here, we have a smaller relative to them called Tromber here but they usually don’t do more harm than moving caravans and sometimes lift the roof off from a barn.

      Have a great day and Happy Easter!
