I’ve done my duty.

So today we have the elections for a new parliament and also elections for our regions and counties. We always have our elections on the second Sunday in September so we know that as many as possible can go and vote. We can of course pre vote but I don’t think we can send any […]

A busy day.

I would have loved to sleep a little bit longer today but I woke up at 4 am and since the dogs noticed I had very little choice than to get up, go outside and check if Doris the badger was in the or not before I could let the dogs outside. Also, the Monster […]

Mushroom season.

I still can’t say much about my new job since I mostly help other people since some people are sick, still I can say I like the people in the factory though and that’s the important thing. I’m moving my back a lot all the time and that helps with the rheumatism in my spine, […]

Still summer warm.

Summer is back and today it was even Scandinavian hot (over 25C (77F) ) but we had a weak but cool wind blowing so I really couldn’t complain. It will cool down on Friday and if they’re right we’ll have plenty of rain during the entire weekend and beyond. I will not complain πŸ™‚ This […]

I’m tired of this drought now!

Yesterday was horrible, temperature wise. 30C (86F) and the wind just made it worse by being warm as well. Everything dried out so I had lots of watering to do when I came back home from work. It did help some but there are lots of roots looking for those few drops of water they […]

Finally rain :-)

We didn’t get especially much rain during last night but what difference it made to the vegetation! Everything looked alive and that wasn’t the case yesterday. I must admit that I still felt a bit disappointed but it is what it is. We woke up around 3 am today and normally I would just have […]

They tried again.

The morning was cool and nice but after that it has become warmer and warmer again, still the real heatwave won’t arrive until early next week. The temperatures will rise to around 30C (86F) and possibly a bit higher as well. That’s when I’m so happy about working all mornings cleaning a big pool πŸ™‚ […]

So hot!

I really don’t understand how people can live in these high temperatures. It rose to 35C (95F) quite early in the day but then we had a short lived thunderstorm passing by so the temperature dropped to 22C (71,6F) It did however not take long before we had 35C (95F) again after that plus the […]

Very mixed weather.

So we’ve had a week with very mixed weather, some sunshine, some rain, a bit of hail and we even had thunder two days ago. I helped with moving furnitures in a pre school when the hail started. One little kid came to me and said don’t go outside the run is pouring down and […]

I didn’t expect to meet that on our walk.

Greylags on they way out to the bog. A beautiful sunrise and a cold morning, not as cold as yesterday but cold enough to kill the plants that had survived yesterday but was badly hit by the frost yesterday. My neighbours tomato plants said good buy and the one I had in the greenhouse Β that […]

So much colder than I thought it would be.

My neighbours keep finding the Monsters old collars in their garden, this one has been lost for at least six months πŸ™‚ The night was much colder that I thought it would be, it was -7C (19,4F) when we went out on our morning walk and I could see that my neighbour had had to […]
