The first harvest :-)

I noticed that in one of the plastic buckets where I put the spruts that fell off from the potatoes I was planting the leafs suddenly had gotten small black spots and that’s a sign that they are infected with potato blight. No bigger problem as long as one remove all green above surface before […]

It could have rained a bit more.

It rained during last night and it was quite nice to step outside when I let the dogs out. We didn’t get especially much though but any drop helps. We didn’t have any morning walk today because I wanted to go to the pet store and buy that spray that ticks don’t like. I guess […]

So many ticks.

Nothing much has happened here. Yesterday morning started out much like the previous one, cold and sunny, so the morning mist was just starting to build up when some clouds came and destroyed it all. They prevented the heat from the sun to evaporate the cold morning dew so no morning mist. This morning had […]

I thought they had some in stock :-)

We’ve had a rather nice day here. According to the weather sites it should have started sunny and pretty early on slowly turn towards cloudy, so I wasn’t the least surprised when it started cloudy but then slowly turned towards sunny 🙂 🙂 🙂 We had a few hours of sunshine and the temperature rose […]

I’ve finally found out what she’s good at!

I’m writing this early today because yesterday was so hot here that my computer had a slight heatstroke 🙂 🙂 Suddenly the fan inside it worked insanely hard, have never heard it working that hard before and then the computer froze and the fan stopped working at all. I quickly went down to the freezer […]

The beginning of our three day heat wave.

  It has been hot here today, Scandinavian hot that is, 28C (82,4F) and it isn’t nice at all. No problem at the beginning of it though because we had a strong and cool wind blowing but when the wind died out so did our energy 🙂 Alma tried to be full of energy for […]

I really don’t like to change phone.

Another rather nice day, at least after a while. The morning was quite chilly but we had sunshine and the flies were still hiding in the vegetation trying to stay warm. We went out on a short walk because Nova didn’t seem to want to go at all. She isn’t as alert that she once […]

A little surprise thunderstorm.

The weather has been rather mixed today. Quite warm and very windy. Lots of clouds but still lots of sunshine and one surprising shower with five lightnings hitting not too far away to the south west of the village. I had almost all windows open but the ones in the living room when I looked […]

A really nice first day.

I had a tough night last night, my dogs tried to take over my bed and push me off it 🙂 🙂 🙂 To be honest I think it mostly was Alma but the two others just spread out more the more space she gained from pushing me away 🙂 🙂 I went to my […]

Lots of napping today :-)

I really haven’t done much today besides napping for a couple of hours and going through the dogs checking for ticks. The rainy weather really brought out those nasty critters again. We have very few slugs and snails though so that’s at least something. It stayed towards the chilly side until noon today. It was […]
