Another really nice day, summer is here.

We started the day with having a blue sky, sunshine and cool temperatures . I wore a fleece sweater and regretted it almost immediately 🙂 It was too warm even in the shadows but I needed something with pockets so I could bring my phone and dog treats 🙂 It’s always good to bring a […]

Today I got good news :-)

First of all I want to thank those of You who think my little things here on Bluesky is worth reposting. Thank You ! So last week I went to a city named BorÃ¥s to check on a job as a painter, both powder and wet paint. The problem is that it takes almost 1 […]

They’re guessing it’ll be warmer again.

We had sunshine when I woke up this morning and it was fairly warm as well. The clouds were on their way though and it looked like lots of rain were falling out from them as well but like yesterday the wind blew them away from us and it didn’t take long before they started […]

So much rain and I want more.

It has rained here since yesterday afternoon, I don’t have a rain meter but a friend of mine has gotten just more than an inch of rain. I now have two full water barrels and three on they way to become that and each can contain around 325 litres (around 84 gallons US). I think […]

Finally some rain.

We did get some rain last night, nice spring rain last evening and by the looks of it most likely drizzle for the rest of the night. Well we got rain and that’s the important thing. They’re guessing there’s a 95% chance of rain every day until Saturday night. They also say it’ll become warmer […]

We had company this morning.

Sunny morning and frost again but just below 0C (32F) so it didn’t feel that cold. The Cuckoo birds sound echoed all over the village and the bog. I heard it coming from north the first time and that means we’ll have another dry summer. The saying is that if one hear it from north […]

I didn’t expect to meet that on our walk.

Greylags on they way out to the bog. A beautiful sunrise and a cold morning, not as cold as yesterday but cold enough to kill the plants that had survived yesterday but was badly hit by the frost yesterday. My neighbours tomato plants said good buy and the one I had in the greenhouse  that […]

So much colder than I thought it would be.

My neighbours keep finding the Monsters old collars in their garden, this one has been lost for at least six months 🙂 The night was much colder that I thought it would be, it was -7C (19,4F) when we went out on our morning walk and I could see that my neighbour had had to […]

Nasty work but it needs to be done :-)

  Even though it barely reached 10C (50F) and the wind kept on blowing it wasn’t that bad today. The sun shone all day long and most of the wind came from west so most of it never reached my garden. I picked off around 25 small ticks from the dogs after the morning walk […]

Lets hope the rain actually comes.

  Warm night and a wonderful day, well it would have been wonderful if that wind that never stops had been calmer. The gusts were really strong and I guess it’s because the cold wind from the arctic is on the way. Still most parts in my garden was wind free and I, instead of […]

Summer warmth.

The forest owner cut down three birch trees around the old root cellar. My neighbours will now have evening sun but I’ve seen them every day for 26 years so it looks so empty now. I had written a really long post and just had to leave the computer for a few minutes and during […]

Nasty arctic winds.

  Just as cold this morning as it was yesterday, -6C (21,2F) and that was one night too many for the annuals I put in the greenhouse to see how well they would do if the night would be as cold as that.  Still a bitterly cold arctic wind blowing so it didn’t feel as […]
