After nasty cold comes snowstorm and then rain.

  I can’t pretend to look forward to the coming snowstorm and the following warmer temperatures with what looks like lots of rain but it’s sure better than the -18 C (-0,4 F) we had this morning. It was so nasty cold that I was afraid the front doors lock had frozen like it did […]

Yesterday was warm, grey and dull and a bit windy, today was warm, grey and dull but with sunshine for a few seconds and very windy and some misty rain when we went out for our morning walk. Not the funniest weather to be honest but it is still better than cold and snow.   […]

Misty rain and meh fog here in the village today. The fog was much thicker outside the village and all the way to the grocery store in the village where I used to work. I still go to that store every now and again because that’s where I started to buy my groceries when I […]

Most of You are celebrating Christmas today unlike us Swedes so I’ll just pop in for a few minutes. We had our morning walk down to the creek and Alma once again behaved really well, that is until we happened to see two people in front of us when we went out on a field […]

I wish You all a Good Yule!

  We Swedes are sort of obcessed by Disney today and it has been so for generations. Swedish Television (SWT), our Pbs, has since 1960 sent an old Disney program called The Wonderful World of Disney. 2020 it became the most viewed tv program ever in this country when almost half the population looked at […]

Yule knock :-)

We don’t say christmas present over here, we say julklapp, more or less Yule knock. That’s because when giving presents here in the beginning it was meant to be (I’ve heard) either a prank or an anonymous present. On christmas eve they didn’t lock the door and put new straw behind the door and when […]

We did actually have some sunshine today, not much while we had our morning walk but a few minutes after we had come back home. It was a really good walk though because Alma was unusually quiet, then again she pulled the leash more than usual but I can take that. That sound she has […]

The weather has really been boring for a couple of days now but it is well above 0 C (32 f) so I’m not complaining too much. The cottage becomes a mess though because since the dogs don’t want to be outdoors besides for walk they play indoors instead 🙂 🙂 They aren’t allowed to […]

Almost as boring weather today as yesterday but with less rain, only in the early morning just before we should have went out on our morning walk. I had to go to the grocery store in Gudhem first though to pick up my “new” computer. We might get to see the sun shine tomorrow but […]

The weather has been so gloomy that it was depressing today, strong winds, rain (quite often misty rain which is the worst kind) and everything is muddy. Misty rain is awful when it hits the wind shield while out driving, it’s sort of sticky so nothing happens when the wipers tries to wipe it off […]

The cold and wind free days are over and now we have windy but warmer days instead. The only thing I’m not happy about is how much dirtier the floor becomes 🙂 🙂 Still I prefer warmer weather. I have been born in the wrong part of the world, I should have been born in […]
