The fly season has started, yay.

My neck is feeling a bit better today, I’ve stretched itΒ  back and forwards, very slowly, all day long. I did however wake up in the middle of night when I tried to turn and had to sort of lift my head while turning around πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Fell asleep directly as soon as I […]

Falling down :-)

My kitchen stairs are just two steps but when a slipper gets caught in a nail that has grown up from the wood it still is pretty high when falling down to the ground πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Most of me hit a sack of peat and my first thought was that I had broken the […]

Frost.

-1C (30,2F) here last night and the frost damaged my Amur grapevine. Most other plants, except for my tomatoes seems to have made it through without too much problem, even the small pear tree seedlings I replanted yesterday evening. Tonight might be even more cold so I’ve covered most of the plants that I still […]

Alma is so much more careful when playing with her.

We once again woke up just before the sun was about to rise above the mountains and it felt really cold for the first time in a long time. To be honest it wasn’t that cold, the thermometer said it hadn’t been colder than 9C (48,2F) and warmer than that is still fairly uncommon here […]

The nettles slid down my arm.

I have a thorn in one of my fingers and it hurts every time I press down a key with it so now I’m trying to not use it at all. I can see the thorn so I’ll get it out after this. I have the thorn there just because I cleared out another area […]

Not happy about it.

We’ve had a rather nice week over here sunny and warm but not too warm. The rain that they said would fall here, and it would be well over an inch, never arrived. I have no idea where it went instead though but none at work had gotten any. So instead I’ve been watering both […]

The sunshine is really hot.

We were supposed to have a gray and dull day here with little to no sunshine so is anyone surprised when I say that we’ve mostly had sunshine all day? πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ 21C (69,8F) but really hot in the sunshine. I even hesitated to take the dogs for a walk because of how hot […]

Presummer is here.

I’ve always been like this but I still feel it’s wrong to wake up earlier on a weekend than on the days I need to go to work πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ I woke up just as the sun slowly should have risen but there were a few clouds at the horizon that blocked it for […]

That was a day I’ll never get back.

So the company I work for started a sort of club for us working more than eleven years in the company, to “strengthen the community feeling”Β  (and do fun things together) as I remember them saying. We even got a golden pin with the company logo on. Nothing much happened after that until yesterday when […]

Nothing much happens.

There isn’t much happening here at the moment so I’ll take a break until Saturday. If anything extraordinary does happen I will write here anyway so I’m pretty sure You’ll see me on Saturday again πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Have a couple of great days!

The first potatoes are in the ground now.

Β  We’ve had such a nice day here, sunshine for half the day and it reached almost 18C (64,4F). Very little wind and the wind we had was lukewarm πŸ™‚ Quite chilly in the morning (almost frost) though but with the sun shining it didn’t feel that bad anyway. I have continued to remove the […]

Lots of tea :-)

Now I know that it wasn’t my next door neighbors who was visited by Alma, so my guess is that she went up to the farmer next door instead. Well one can always hope they believe it is either a fox or perhaps wild cats that has gone through their trash πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ The […]
