So it’s September and from today I’ll work the evening shift. I’ll work every second Friday but today is not one of those Fridays so I’m starting the evening shift by staying at home and have a long weekend 🙂 🙂 I don’t like to have to do this but I do like to have a job and I like the people I’ll start working with. Also there are a few things that are positive as well, like I’ll be able to see daylight every day through winter and also being able to have our walks during daylight as well 🙂

So if I can change my sleeping habits fairly quickly this might be a good thing because I really hate when I leave for work in darkness and it also is dark before I go home again in the afternoon. So I stayed up a bit later already yesterday and actually managed to stay asleep until just after six am, not bad for being me since I normally wakes up just before five am no matter when I go to bed. Perhaps I already is mentally adjusting towards the hew hours?

I did however wake up to a light rain that ended early on so that we could go on our morning walk. It was a bit chilly when we started so the mosquitoes stayed calm but it was much less chilly when we were half way through and the mosquitoes started to show us how much they love us 🙂 🙂 There is at least very few ticks around now, I only found two and those were sitting on Alma, she truly is a tick magnet. It does feel like it is Saturday though 🙂

Something was walking in the field outside the cottage yesterday night. I had let the dogs out for a last time before going to bed and they rushed to the back and started to bark like crazy. I have no idea what it was but I think it most likely were either roe deer or badgers walking around just outside the fence. I hope my neighbors didn’t sleep because they sure wouldn’t after that 🙂 🙂 They’ve removed the lynx safe fence around that field so now it’s just the old one and animals might once again start to walk through the garden at night. I don’t mind that at all but I need to make some noise so they can get away before I let the dogs out at night.

It is already after noon so it is time to make something to eat. I’ve started a new routine for the dogs as well. They’ll get half a portion when we wake up, a full portion around 2:30 (before I’ll leave for work) and half a portion when I’ve come back home again. They did look at me as if I was trying to starve them to death this morning but I’m pretty sure they’ll like the next meal 🙂

Have a great day!
