It did rain all night.

We never had those heavy showers here and I haven’t heard any news about them either so I guess they never happened. We did however have a nice summer rain all night so that’s at least something. The rain water barrels are perhaps filled to a third but I had hoped they would be more […]

We are supposed to have loads of rain today, bucket fulls of rain. We did have rain during the night, a soft and gentle summer rain but after that mostly drizzle as best. I’m sort of disappointed to be homes 🙂 Ok the day isn’t over yet and the Swedish weather site says lots of […]

Fog.

To my surprise I woke up to a slightly foggy world, not a great fog but still foggy enough 🙂 No wind, a few birds tweeting and I could hear cranes flying south west towards the coast and the ravens of course. Alma behaved so well today that it surprised me, yesterday she did anything […]

It worked after all these years.

+1 C (33,8 F) this morning but since there was no wind what so ever it actually didn’t feel that bad. I’m glad I covered the sensitive plants last evening. I don’t trust those temperatures the weather web sites show though, they say around 10 C (32 F) so I’ll cover them again tonight. Perfect […]

Trellied tree, or at least it will be.

Once again we woke up to a pretty and cold morning. No frost but I had still covered all the more sensitive plants. I will not do that this evening because from now on nights will be warmer again and therefore we’ll be annoyed by the flies again. They might not be many but oh […]

Last day with hot weather.

I haven’t done much today to be honest, we had our morning walk and it was just slightly warmer than yesterday morning. That changed during the day though and it became so warm that the dogs preferred to stay indoors. That will all change tomorrow though when the temperatures will stay below 20C (68F) and […]

Hot and dry.

So I got my new mattress pad yesterday and really looked forward to test it for the first time. So this was the first night I wasn’t tired 🙂 🙂 🙂 I did sleep really good when I finally managed to go to sleep though 🙂 🙂 I’ll know better after tonight I hope 🙂 […]

I never heard the thunder.

We’ve had a really wonderful day here today, just enough warm with a lukewarm wind blowing, mostly sunshine but also some clouds every now and again. We must have had rain during the night because the grass was a bit more wet than it would have been if it only was morning dew. According to […]

Today my neighbours oldest daughter (I think she’s six years old or perhaps five) gave me three eggs from their chickens and for a second or two I was thinking if I should by one of those cheap incubators to let the eggs hatch. Then I realised that I in that case had to fix […]

A storm will pay us a visit tomorrow.

Grey and dull most of the day and just enough warm so it has been a rather nice day. It had rained during the night, not much just enough to make the vegetation wet so the dogs were rather wet when they came in from the garden just after we had woken up. we did […]

Misty morning and spider webs.

We had a wonderful morning here, just below 10C (50F), morning mist and a sun slowly rising. If I hadn’t just woken up I would have taken our morning walk there and then. however newly awake, quite tired and both I and the animals needed some food before we went out. So by the time […]
