The rebellious stage has begun.

Mostly cloudy today but really nice. Just warm enough and no wind. The no wind did make the flies too happy but only while we were walking in the forest, here at home they mostly kept away. So I could walk around watering the plants that need extra attention without going crazy πŸ™‚ Β  Β  […]

Last day of vacation but still the weekend left.

Another really nice day but it was a bit too warm in the morning and absolutely no wind so the flies were quite annoying, no biting ones though and that’s always positive. We walked down to the creek and I had hoped we at least would see the Roe deer we’ve seen lately but I […]

One of those summer days one remembers from childhood.

The weather has been so nice today, an almost perfect summer day like the ones one tend to remember from childhood even though here most summers used to rain away and the only reason one had to remember those warm and sunny summer days was because summer breaks were so long as a child πŸ™‚ […]

We didn’t get a morning with cool air and morning mist, instead we had fairly warm morning with a thick layer of clouds above us. So instead of having a really nice and cool walk we had a walk in the forest where flies and mosquitoes reigned.Β  Still we’ve had worse walks so I’m not […]

Nice day and bread baking.

Β  I’m baking bread, well not yet it’s still rising and will do so for an hour more.Β  Most of the gluten free recipes seems to be for tiny breads that’ll last for a day or so. A bit annoying because they won’t go bad so quickly, so I tend to double it all. I […]

I’m finding potato plants everywhere now :-)

Β  We’ve had so much nicer weather than they guessed yesterday that we would get, as best we could hope for smaller gaps in the clouds where the sun might get a chance to shine through. Instead we’ve had plenty of sunshine since just after we had come home from our morning walk. We’ve also […]

We’ve had unusually much sunshine todayΒ  since we weren’t supposed to have any πŸ™‚ Still mostly cloudy anyway and it has been just enough warm so it has been rather nice, we even had a nice walk later in the day because the flies in the forest really didn’t care much about us. Well there […]

Β  I had both windows upstairs open during the night and woke up in the middle of the night because I was freezing πŸ™‚ It was only 8C (46,4F) outside and not much warmer in my bedroom πŸ™‚ So I just pulled up the blanket and had a really good sleep until the dogs decided […]

I hope it starts to dry up now.

I hope I can mow the lawn tomorrow because today has been both reasonable warm and sunny plus we’ve had a wind blowing helping to dry up the grass. The early morning wasn’t that fun though, misty rain and so warm that the flies behaved like crazy so we never came out for a morning […]

A morning I liked.

The morning was almost perfect here today, only almost because as usual the vegetation was so wet that Malkolm was soaking wet when we came home even though he barely walked in the high grass today. It was cool, morning mist and the sun slowly rising. We skipped having breakfast before going outside hoping to […]

The new compost.

This morning was sunny and quite chilly with some morning mist hovering above the ground. It wasn’t supposed to be like that but since the sky was clear blue I thought I had some time before the more cloudy weather would start. It started as soon as we came outside the entrance door πŸ™‚ The […]

I slept away an entire day.

I think we all now are getting rid of our ailments. The dogs stomachs are much better and I finally woke up without a sour throat. I was really tired yesterday so both the dogs and I slept almost all day. The morning was quite nice and cool with some sunshine so we could have […]
