Scandinavian hot again.

26C (78,8F) now in the afternoon and even though there’s a wind blowing it still feels a bit too warm. I can’t even imagine what it would be like to live in a place where this is a rather low temperature 🙂 🙂 🙂 The morning was nice though, 13C (55,4F) just as the sun […]

A really nice morning.

So we had a rather cool morning today so the morning walk was totally fly free 🙂 It was only when we were almost at home it became warm enough for the flies to start annoying me. To be honest though, we do have almost alarmingly few flies and mosquitoes this year. You who have […]

So hot!

I really don’t understand how people can live in these high temperatures. It rose to 35C (95F) quite early in the day but then we had a short lived thunderstorm passing by so the temperature dropped to 22C (71,6F) It did however not take long before we had 35C (95F) again after that plus the […]

They behaved so well.

My neighbour and I went to the pool to do the tests and check the repair I had done on a thin tube earlier in the week. It was so nice there now in the morning before anyone was awake enough to even consider going to the pool . The water is heated so even […]

Most of it seems to have missed us.

They warned us of heavy showers and thunderstorms today but so far we’ve had a light thunder passing by and a gentle summer rain. From what I can see on the weather sites it’s over for this time. I do wonder where those heavy showers were. We had sunshine when we were out on our […]

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 […]

No need to water anything today.

I managed to stay in bed for one hour longer than yesterday despite the dogs doing their best to drag me up and outside to the garden 🙂 I have no idea what they wanted but they ran a lap along the fence and then they wanted to go indoors again, so I refused 🙂 […]

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 […]

Really nice fog this morning.

We had thick fog here this morning when I woke up and since it was fairly warm I guessed it wouldn’t stay for especially long, so I was in no hurry to go out for our morning walk. I realised after a while that it didn’t evaporate at all so out we went. Fog is […]

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 […]

Cold night but no moose.

It’s really annoying because they’ve changed things here on WP and not for the better I’m afraid, now I need to re-learn how to put in photos here in the post and I don’t like it. Before I had a bar above what I wrote where I easily could just press a media button and […]
