Grey and dull most of the day and just enough warm so it has been a rather nice day. It had rained during the night, not much just enough to make the vegetation wet so the dogs were rather wet when they came in from the garden just after we had woken up. we did get a couple of showers during the day as well but they looked worse than they were to be honest, the water barrels didn’t get any bigger addition of water.

I drove to the super market rather early in the morning so I didn’t have to deal with lots of people who never knows what they want to have and no long lines at the cashier. I had written a long list of what I most possibly needed and put question marks after those I just wanted 🙂 Well the list is still on the living room table so I didn’t get some things I possibly wanted but I did get one or two things I never thought Wanted 🙂 Like a branch cutter, looks like a big secateur and this one also had telescope arms so I could reach higher up in the trees. I’ve already tried it and removed dead branches on one of my apple trees and several on the Hungarian lilac.

I do like most of my trees and bushes (except for the common lilac) but sometimes they grow so dense that neither light nor rain can reach the ground and that’s why I bought this cutter. It’ll also come in handy when I need to cut down my wild roses because trying a secateur on those is most likely the closest I’ll ever come to try and kill myself, those thorns are big and horrible 🙂 🙂 🙂 The wind outside is getting stronger and tomorrow we will be hit by a storm. Thankfully the worst of it will hit Norway but some will come here too. I do hope we also get some of the rain but one never knows.

It is time for that last cup of tea and today I was baking French rolls but they flattened out instead and became really good teacakes instead 🙂

The Kankakee mallow is now much higher than I am 🙂 🙂 🙂

Have a great day!
