A day of relaxation :-)

Today has been a day of relaxation, well the previous ones as well but today we took an extra long nap after lunch. The hunters were out for the most part of the day when we still had daylight and it has also rained quite a lot so none of the dogs were outside for […]

Have a good continuing of the Yule.

Last Sunday when we took a walk out on the bog I found some tracks in the snow when we walked on my favorite island out there. beneath the canopy there was just a thin layer of powdered snow so I really couldn’t see what animals they came from but it was clear that they […]

I wish You all Good Yule.

We got a white christmas, or Jul as we call it, after all. Just a few days ago we had lots of snow and it was bitterly cold when suddenly a warm front arrived with some rain and melted it all away. Ok it also gave us freezing rain which made it rather exciting to […]

We never see wild life any longer.

The weather has been rather pleasant today, we went out as soon as I noticed that the sun rose but since it felt a bit chilly I decided to put on the winter jacket. Too bad that Alma decided that today was the day she would stop behaving at all 🙂 🙂 It felt like […]

Now he has to pay :-)

Nova is lying on her back beside my chair and demands belly rubbings. It’s a bit tricky to do that while typing and she also lets out the most horrible farts so I refuse to do any belly rubbing on her right now 🙂 🙂 🙂 She is very picky when it comes to where […]

The rain keeps her indoors :-)

The rain has been pouring down for two days now. So no walks after work since none of the dogs would follow me outside 🙂 🙂 The grass on the entrance side is now so wet and soggy that not even the dogs will walk there, well walk is the wrong word since sliding in […]

Sound travels well in sandy soil.

I’ve done all my chores early today and to be honest there weren’t that many to do. The laundry, dinner for next week and dinner for today. We had pancakes today and we also had pancakes yesterday 🙂 The dogs get one each and I’ll have as many I can get out from the batter […]

Slow days stuns the brain.

So yesterday while I was working I suddenly got a phone cal from my neighbor and I thought that can’t be a good thing. Either my cottage is burning down or Alma has escaped from the dog yard again. Thankfully it was the latter one 🙂 🙂 🙂 So I had to drive home to […]

Concrete ice.

Yesterday night I didn’t get much sleep. Nova got some kind of stomach flu and had to go outside every now and again, usually just as I started to fall asleep again. Also at 1:30 am I needed to go to the bathroom myself and after that it was even harder to fall asleep. So […]

I hope it helps the ground water levels.

The rain is pouring down and even here where the ground mostly contains sand it’s now impossible to walk around on the lawn without sliding around 🙂 🙂 Still we need it so that the ground water levels finally rise again. We’ve had a warning about our ground water levels for well over half a […]

Mixed weather.

I really shouldn’t drink a lot before I go to bed but yesterday evening I did so I woke up just before 4 am 🙂 🙂 I let the dogs out and it was quite pleasant outside. There wouldn’t be any daylight in hours so I went indoors and prepared our breakfasts. Just before we […]
