Scandinavian hot today.

Scandinavian hot today, 25C (77F), thankfully a wind is blowing to cool it down. Then again warm air dries out the ground even more so it’s sort of a damned if I do damned if I don’t situation for nature. They say we’ll get some more rain tomorrow evening though and the temperatures will drop […]

My Rosemary survived the winter :-)

My car is almost clean after all this rain we’ve had lately πŸ™‚ and tit will stay clean for at least this week out because we’re getting more of it. It’s also still reasonable warm so the only thing that bugs me now is that mosquitoes will become many more, so far I’ve only had […]

It’s a bad aphid year here.

I’ve had a really nice day, the morning was rather chilly, only 4C (39,2F) and there was a layer of clouds early showing the sun, so the first thing we did was to jump in to the car so I could deliver invitations to the road association meeting we’ll have next Saturday. We drove away […]

There she stood just looking at us.

20C (68F) today but very little sunshine. Really doesn’t matter to me since I’ve been working all day Β πŸ™‚ The dogs must have had a really nice day though πŸ™‚ Summer arrived a month early (I’m not complaining about that πŸ™‚ ) and so did the forest flies, that I am complaining about though. Forest […]

Yesterday after I had come home from work and the walk with the dogs I started baking a bread, I sat down in the recliner and woke up by the timer alarming that it was time to put the bread in the oven. I was so confused when the alarm started that I had no […]

Sort of meh weather.

I don’t mind the little rain we’ve got but it is a bit chilly to be honest. That and a high humidity forces me to turn on the radiators again. Not a much but enough to keep that humidity outside. We haven’t been close to how much rain they predicted, the ground is still bone […]

The ticks and mosquitoes are back, yay.

Below 0C (32F) again this morning, nothing strange to be honest because that’s how it used to be back in the days. April here back in the days could be anything from what we have now to bitterly cold and snowstorms, usually the latter. This year the warm weather started so early that it isn’t […]

Warmish.

It’s quiet in my cottage, the dogs and kitten are sleeping and even though the tv is on downstairs I can’t hear it. We went out to the bog this morning and I tried something old with Alma, I thought she has become older so perhaps it will work this time. It is more quiet […]

Walking in the village.

The first hunter arrived at the same time we were going out on our morning walk, I had already planned for us to walk in the village. There were morning mist floating in the cow pasture outside my cottage so I have to admit that I felt a bit disappointed when I saw that there […]
