I’m tired of this drought now!

Yesterday was horrible, temperature wise. 30C (86F) and the wind just made it worse by being warm as well. Everything dried out so I had lots of watering to do when I came back home from work. It did help some but there are lots of roots looking for those few drops of water they […]

We’ve had really mixed weather this week.

We’ve had very mixed weather here this week, anything from sunny and Scandinavian hot to almost chilly and heavy rain. Today however has been rather nice, cool and sunny morning, a few hours with cloudy weather and now sunny and just enough warm. Strong winds blowing all wee though. Wee went down to the creek […]

Not a start of the morning I like to have :-)

It was just before 4:30 this morning, I woke up to hearing the dings run up and down the stairs so I thought I better get up and let them out because I really didn’t want an accident happening just because I was to slow to open the door. Turns out that they really didn’t […]

A bit chilly today.

Cloudy here today and every now and again some rain has fallen. Not much, not even enough to make the ground beneath the tree canopies even damp. Also a bit chilly since it just reached 17C (60,8F). The work week was warm though so I guess this weather made the day a perfect day to […]

Longing for that rain and cool weather to arrive.

It has been, for us Scandinavians, nasty hot here with temperatures around 33C (91,4F). Guess if I’m happy to be caring about the public pool in Floby every day 🙂 Today I decided I should sweep all the stairs in the pool and brush away all sand that the bathers had brought in with them […]

Still too hot.

It has been sticky warm all day (much warmer than they had guessed) with the exception when the thunder passed. It was a meh thunder to be honest and very little rain fell. The little rain did however make sure the humidity went all the way up to 100%. So I haven’t done especially much […]

It’s getting warmer.

It is Scandinavian hot already now but the heat wave will hit us from tomorrow and last at least until Monday if the weather sites are right. We might get some rain and if we do I’m pretty sure it will come with thunder. No where near what they have down in Europe though. So […]

A typical summer day.

Very mixed weather here but it has had the same temperature all day long, 15C (59F). Not much to brag about but it is what it is. So I have actually worn a sweater all day even when the sun has been shining. It rained all the time when we were out on our morning […]

Very mixed weather.

So we’ve had a week with very mixed weather, some sunshine, some rain, a bit of hail and we even had thunder two days ago. I helped with moving furnitures in a pre school when the hail started. One little kid came to me and said don’t go outside the run is pouring down and […]

Lots of rain but still not enough.

They day started nice enough and since I really want the rain I shouldn’t complain about all the rain that fell for the rest of the day 🙂 However cleaning a pool when it rains is a bit more tricky than one might think, the surface becomes impossible to see through so one really doesn’t […]

Morning mist.

It has been a rather wonderful day, despite me having to mow the lawn when it was wet. Both my neighbour and I have waited to mow the lawn with the hope that it would dry up, so stupid because of course it won’t 🙂 🙂 🙂 So we both started to mow at the […]

Thunder.

Sorry about not posting any blog for a couple of days. I still haven’t made any kind of routine how to organise my afternoons after work 🙂 It’ll be here before autumn arrives I think 🙂 🙂 🙂 Most of the rain they’ve guessed we would have have missed us, lots of rain in Floby […]
