The potatoes are down.

Today I could feel that I was a bit faster while working than yesterday even though I’m still pretty slow πŸ™‚ I got a better flow while working. I had a short day at work though because today I had my kidney x-rayed again. I guess I’ll have the result in one or two weeks. The ones x-raying aren’t allowed to say anything about what they can see just in case they misinterpret anything. I had my appointment at 12:40 but was lucky so they let me in twenty minutes earlier. It was much the same last year when I had that first x-ray.

After that I had some grocery shopping to do since easter is a four day holiday here and I really dislike having too do any shopping during that time πŸ™‚ So I drove to the village where I worked before and did my shopping there and wished them all a happy easter, I have after all been shopping there for 28 years now πŸ™‚ I also bought more solid so I can fill up the big box where I have my straw berries. The weather has been amazing today so I also put down the potatoes in the ground, a bit early for me but if there’s any risk of night frost I’ll cover them so they don’t freeze.

One of my favourites because of its wonderful smell, Bog Myrtle.

The Goose berries in the forest are in bloom, mine at home isn’t even close to πŸ™‚

It will cool down considerable already tonight, northern winds will press down cold air from the arctic, still it won’t fall down below 0C (32F) but compared to today it will feel cold. They still keep saying we’ll get rain as well but the closer awe come the less rain will fall πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ I don’t mind the rain because it is so dry in the grass and forest now that if it will start to burn it will escalate quickly. The ground though is still not especially dry.

Finally the Dandelions are in bloom πŸ™‚

This White Wood Anemone will become pale blue.

It isa time for that last cup of tea and perhaps a sandwich or two πŸ™‚

The wild plum in bloom.

Have a great day!

    1. Hi Denali Sam!

      I do like this time of year but it is a bit early to be honest.
      The petals are already falling like snow from the plum tree πŸ™‚ No frost during the time it has been in bloom so that should give lots of tiny plums this year πŸ™‚

    1. Hi Carol!

      We’re about one month early here so when the temperature drops a bit it feels like winter is on the way again πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

      I think it all depends on how the wild bees can help, so far we don’t have especially many of them but then again we are really early with the warm weather so I hope we’ll have many more soon πŸ™‚
