So yesterday after it had gone dark I found another little mouse in the box trap. I thought I really couldn’t leave it there all night so I took the trap and started to walk towards the forest. Since I was sure I wouldn’t Β meet anyone (even though there are some people who loves to walk in the forest in the dark) I let the dogs follow me unleashed.




They were running all around me and had lots of fun. Then I suddenly realised that they’ve stopped, turned around and watched how they hurriedly ran back home π π π I have no idea why but suddenly I stood there all alone in the dark not knowing why π π Well what ever it was it left me alone anyway so I just let the mouse out and walked back home. That little travelling cage I’ve bought hasn’t arrived yet but I know it is on its way. I’ve learned one thing, if ever anything serious will happen to me I really can’t count of any help from the dogs π π π




The morning walk was rather pleasant, no wind and it almost reached 10C (50F). No sun of course but slightly more daylight than previous days. Alma and Malkolm almost behaved all the way as well. We did see a Roe deer around a football field away and that did of course stress out Alma and it didn’t help that they were cutting down forest somewhere close but as soon as we were on the way home again she calmed down.




Tomorrow is Saint Lucias day here and oddly enough we Lutherans who rarely celebrate anything celebrates this catholic saint π I’ll tell You more about it tomorrow but I can say this that this custom actually have spread to the US even if it still is very few who does this over at Yours.




It is time for that last cup of tea for the day and even though I’ve just had dinner I still think I’ll have a couple of vΓΆrtbrΓΆd sandwiches with cheese, spotted sausages and shrimp salad π
Have a great day!
Nice to know your house guardians are not guarding you!
I guess you need to turn around and run back with them!

Hi Carol!
Yes π π π
Depending on what it is I think my best option is to stay and fight for as long as I can π π π

I think I saw it on “New Scandinavian Cooking,” Norwegian children dressed in white, holding candles and singing “Santa Lucia” as a Christmas carol. I always thought it was a regular Italian song. YouTube has video of Pavarotti singing it, but for some reason I’m unable to post even a link to it here.
My cat Roc is very devoted to me and he’s a very large black cat. I’ve always wondered if he saw someone attacking me, if he’d spring to my defense and bite and shred the attacker, or run under the bed with the other cats. I hope I never have to find out!

Hi catsworking!
It is an Italian song and very much loved here in Scandinavia.
I know they celebrate her in Norway, Denmark, at least in western Finland and especially here in Sweden but also in catholic countries. If I remember it right the Lucia of Gothenburg goes down to Syracuse and celebrates here there as well π
Cats usually do protect the ones it loves and I would be more scared of an angry cat than a dog π
At least now I know I’ll have to fight for myself if needed π π π
