We’re having a really nice spring.

  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 […]

Lots of hard work.

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 […]

Warm days and cold nights.

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 […]

Emptying the compost.

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 […]

I’ve been working in the garden.

  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 […]

Well I didn’t expect that would happen.

  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 […]

Cold nights.

  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 […]

Sunshine all day but northern winds.

  The storm is over but it took its time, it was really windy almost all day yesterday but the worst gusts had at least passed by. Over 30 000 households lost power and trees fell all over the south west parts of Sweden. Cars got destroyed and lots of buildings as well. From what […]

We did at least not get the snow.

  The morning was anything but nice here, very windy and the wind was chilling col plus some drizzle mixed in but I see us as the lucky ones because an area south of us had snow. Not that the snow stayed because it was too warm (well warm doesn’t sound right but it was […]

Nasty cold night.

  -5C (23F) here this morning and it was like being slapped in the face when I followed the dogs outside first thing in the morning. Still the sun rose and it has stayed cloud free all day despite they saying otherwise yesterday 🙂  I guess the wind arrived later because every now and again […]

Well I can’t complain about the weather.

  I can’t really complain about the weather even if I actually is a bit disappointed at it 🙂 Nice but cold morning and we were supposed to have sunshine for a big part of the day but like so often this village lies at the border to where the clouds should fly away but […]
