Another rather wonderful but chilly day. -2C (28,4F) and lots of fog in the morning and sunshine for most of the rest of the day. By the time we came outside it had mostly turned to morning mist which I liked better. The sun had started to rise and rather quickly evaporated the thick fog. Alma had rather early on managed to make the leash to a choke leash. I have no idea how she managed to do that but after that she walked the best she ever has 🙂 🙂 🙂
 
 
 
I don’t use collars on my dogs, especially not Alma because her neck would most likely be destroyed within a week or so but since this worked so well today I might have it the same way tomorrow. She was however more loud than usual so I guess that’s a price I have to pay for her not tearing my shoulders again 🙂 🙂 🙂
 
 
 
We walked down to the creek and it was so nice to not have to wear the hood in my hoodie, this was way too cold for any insects to fly around in 🙂 It won’t be long before even the moose flies will be gone now, there are usually no left in the middle of October. The good thing with these chilly but not awfully cold nights and mornings is that the vegetation slowly gets used to it. None of my potted Apricots, pear trees or citrus trees freeze to death when it happens this slowly. Back in the days our first frost usually killed off loads of the more sensitive potted plants (and those sensitive plants in the garden) because it usually dropped down to -5C (23F) for a couple of nights the first times. Long time since that happened here.
 
 
 
I think I finally has managed to do the right things at the unemployment insurance website 🙂 🙂 🙂 There are still a red dot saying I should do one thing more but I’ve understood that it should be done next week, I truly hope so anyway 🙂 🙂 🙂 I think that to fill in both the the employment agency site will be something one has to do if going to hell one day 🙂 🙂 🙂 So since I’m doing it now perhaps I’m already there 🙂 🙂 🙂
 
 
 
It is time for a last cup of tea for the day and if we’re lucky we’ll have the same weather tomorrow 🙂
 
 
 
Have a great day!

Your photos of the spider web reminded me that the other day I walked out my front door and right through an invisible web that had been spun across it. I turned around and saw a big gray spider hanging above, probably hoping to drop on my head when I opened the door to grab a broom to it shoo it off and clear away the rest of its web. I think he had decided he needed to decorate my house for Halloween. I hope he doesn’t come back.

Hi catsworking!
🙂 🙂 🙂
I’m so glad I don’t have spider phobia any more 🙂 That would have killed me back in the days 🙂
There is this one spider though that still creeps me out, it comes up from the shower and it is big and hairy and if I try to scare it away by for instance throwing something towards it it just starts to run toward me instead 🙂 🙂 🙂

I was once on a cruise ship called SS Norway (former ocean liner SS France from the ’60s), and every time I took a shower, a big cockroach would crawl out of the drain and climb up on a little ledge above the water and just sit there. He did it every time, and when I finished, he’d go back in the drain. I didn’t have the heart to kill him because I thought he was lucky to live on that beautiful ship.
