Just as cold this morning as it was yesterday, -6C (21,2F) and that was one night too many for the annuals I put in the greenhouse to see how well they would do if the night would be as cold as that. Still a bitterly cold arctic wind blowing so it didn’t feel as […]
Yesterday was horrid, nasty cold and strong winds directly from the arctic and cloudy almost all day. Not even the dogs wanted to be outside for more than a few minutes at a time. I had turned off the radiator in my bedroom so I woke up freezing in the middle of the night […]
Another cold night followed by a really nice and warm day. Sunshine all day long and we saw a lot of animals when we were out on our morning walk. We met our fox and once again I was too slow to get a photo, it really should know by now that it has […]
We have a saying here that when the birch leafs are as big as mouse ears it’s time to cut the roses. So yesterday morning I woke up pretty early and was preparing for going to my health center. I chose that place long ago since it was close to my work place, from here […]
A little Robin was kind enough to sit still long enough in the sunshine for me to get a photo of it. I must admit that I didn’t think it was as cold as it was when I followed the dogs outside when we had woken up, -6C (21,2F). I guess that there was no […]
We weren’t supposed to have any sunshine today and in a way they were right, the sky was covered in clouds all day but they were so thin that the sunshine broke through without any problems at all 🙂 I haven’t done much after the morning walk, I did sow some Pasqueflower seeds that […]
The last tomatoes from last summer. After a really cold night warm air flowed in so we had some morning mist here this morning. I was a bit too tired to have a that early morning walk with the dogs so I missed most of it. It stayed chilly for quite some time but since […]
This was the sunrise two days ago. It rained during the night and that’s a good thing but I think it was the rain that made us feel much colder than it actually was. I can’t blame the wind this time, the little we had was way too weak to do that. It wasn’t until […]
I took these photos yesterday when we were lucky to have sunshine on our morning walk. We had a really spectacular sunrise this morning just before the clouds covered that gap in the sky. I was a bit surprised about it since they guessed we would have clouds covering the sky all day. They sort […]
It has been a really nice day here even though the weak wind was pretty cold. Below 0C (32F) temperature during night again but it looks like the coming night will be the last one in a while to have that. From now on it’ll be cloudy but warmer winds will finally fly in […]
So I left the cottage to release another mouse from the box trap before having the morning walk with the dogs. I was a bit later than usual, around nine am even though I had been up since before six am just because it still was so cold after the night and a cold […]
We’ve now had two really nice days, yesterday no wind at all and today a weak but a bit chilly one but it did cool down some while being in the sunshine for a while. Nights however have been way too cold, yesterday night it fell down to -5C (23F) and last night -3C […]
