Felt warmer than it was.

The thermometer said it wasn’t that hot today, 23C (73,4F) but the dogs said otherwise. The cool wind should have helped one could think but it didn’t. I mostly hid in the shadows so to me the day has been pretty nice πŸ™‚ It was rather cool in the early morning though and it seems […]

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 […]

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 […]

Long weekend.

I’m having a long weekend and the weather is quite wonderful. Yesterday was a bit chilly even though the sun shone most parts of the day but the cold feeling from the day before when we had thunder, rain, hailstorms and snow falling really didn’t want to leave. Today it was gone though, no wind, […]

So we won.

It is raining. We weren’t supposed to get rain today but this comes from thunderstorms nearby and it is very dry in the ground so I doubt that anyone is complaining about it. It isn’t dry in my garden though, like in winter when the cold temperatures flow down through my garden so does the […]

Buzy morning.

I woke up pretty early (4:20 am), well I was woken up pretty early by the dogs. With my bedroom window open they now hear everything that happens outside and obviously they then need to go outside to check it out πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ If the window had been closed they would hear something and then […]

Finally some warm weather.

My body aches after all the work in the vegetable patch and potato patch yesterday πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ It was of course as worst this morning but I can feel the muscle pain after every time I’ve sat down for a while. I’ll survive and since I’m walking all the time while painting at work this […]

I’m ready for the vegetable season.

We’ve had a really nice day here, it would have been wonderful if it hadn’t been for the pretty cold night and sometimes the wind being a bit too chilly. To be honest it was warm enough to have the kitchen door open all day and the little wind that actually reached the garden helped […]
