Frost tonight?

I slept so bad on the night towards Friday that I thought it would be a really tough day to go through. I went up the last time I woke up, at 3:27 am according to my mobile, and guess that I felt really surprised because I haven’ felt that relaxed in a long time […]

More mushroom picking.

I had planned on having a long nap today, instead I once again fried mushrooms in butter. The last time that resulted in 1,496 Kg (around 3.3 lbs), today I can put 993 grams (2,2 lbs) in the freezer again 🙂 To be honest I do eat a lot of mushrooms but I don’t think […]

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 […]

I forgot to bring a basket.

I think it was supposed to rain all afternoon but so far I think the worst we’ve had is some light drizzling 🙂 Well the weekend is young so there’s plenty of time for that rain to start falling. I just took a look at those weather sites and they’ve decided that the rain most […]

Heavy showers and thunder.

This spider lives at one of the kitchen windows, looks more scary than she actually is 🙂 So we were supposed to have rain all day today so I wasn’t the least surprised that the sun shone here for several hours. The rain did come after a while though and how it rained 🙂 Heavy […]

Cloudy.

It was so dark this morning, the rain was falling and I couldn’t see a thing outside the windows when we woke up. I went outside to see if Doris the badger were here and then I let the dogs outside. They barely stayed out long enough to do their business to be honest. I […]

A rather nice day.

The rain is pouring down and all it took to make it start was my neighbour going outside working on their cottage 🙂 🙂 We did have some sunshine during the early day but clouds arrived pretty early and we had some drizzle as worst. Ten minutes in on him going outside and the rain […]

The beginning of autumn?

I’ve already felt that there’s change in the air but even though it has been rather warm today that feeling is much stronger. Could be because the trees now are dropping their leafs but I think that’s mostly because of the drought we still have despite the latest rain and perhaps because of the rain […]

Rain!

We have a gentle summer rain falling, I hope it softens up the ground so that when the predicted heavier showers arrive that rain will sink down into the ground and not just out from my garden and in to the bog. So today was my last day working for the county, technically I should […]

A rather perfect day weather-wise.

I thought it would be cold here this morning because yesterday evening had a cold bite in the air. It didn’t stay clear though so very little morning mist but 8C (46,4F) and no wind. The dogs woke me up at 3:45 and it did sound as if they really needed to go outside. So […]
