Lots of rain and I like it :-)

It has been raining all night and almost all day since I went to bed yesterday night.but there was a moment when it didn’t early this morning so the dogs and I went out for our morning walk. Didn’t last for long though before the misty rain arrived and later on just before we arrived […]

The laundry dried fast today.

Lots of sunshine, very few clouds and totally rain free today. Thankfully we have a strong wind blowing so all flies were blown away. I really should have mowed the lawn but the energy just wasn’t there in my body. For once I had problems falling asleep yesterday night, I guess because I had that […]

My first strawberries :-)

  We’re having a really nice afternoon/ evening. Just below 20C (68F), a weak wind blowing (therefore a lots of flies flying around), birds singing and I’ve had my two first strawberries 🙂 To be honest it would have been better to wait a day or so because they were pretty sour 🙂 🙂 🙂 […]

Scandinavian hot today.

Scandinavian hot today, 25C (77F), thankfully a wind is blowing to cool it down. Then again warm air dries out the ground even more so it’s sort of a damned if I do damned if I don’t situation for nature. They say we’ll get some more rain tomorrow evening though and the temperatures will drop […]

Traditions and folklore.

So yesterday was midsummers eve and that’s a big day here, treated like a holiday even though it’s midsummers day that is the holiday. Still very few work on midsummers eve and most of us is payed as if it was a holiday. Also the last holiday here until Christmas. Back in the days everyone […]

Summer at its best.

The first day with evening shift works great, the second day really well, the third day is quite tiresome and the fourth is just nasty 🙂 🙂 🙂 So I’m so glad I mowed the lawn yesterday morning and the shopping today otherwise I’m pretty sure the mowing wouldn’t have been done 🙂 🙂 🙂 […]

Much better and two surprises.

I can’t pretend I feel especially well at all but I do still feel much better than I did just a couple of days ago. The fever is gone and most pain as well, the pain I do have is mostly because I haven’t been moving around especially much. As soon as I do move […]

I think it is finally letting go.

So it felt better on Wednesday, still with fever and tiredness but still better. Yesterday it hit bad again and I started to wonder what I really was having. The thing is that usually when having high fever one boils and freeze with heavy sweating but I never had that sweating, until this morning and […]

Not the best of days today.

I’m feeling like sh.t today, no fever though so I hope this will be better tomorrow when I go to work. I’ve eaten lots of honey and been drinking a lot of tea but most of all I’ve been sleeping in the sofa a lot. It gets really warm when two dogs decide to share […]

My Rosemary survived the winter :-)

My car is almost clean after all this rain we’ve had lately 🙂 and tit will stay clean for at least this week out because we’re getting more of it. It’s also still reasonable warm so the only thing that bugs me now is that mosquitoes will become many more, so far I’ve only had […]

The thunderstorm that passed by was quite fierce and three lightnings hit about 1000 yards away from the cottage. My work friend who lives up on the mountain said that it was quite exciting to see all the lightnings hitting in and around my village 🙂 Yesterday and today however have been both rain and […]

It’s a bad aphid year here.

I’ve had a really nice day, the morning was rather chilly, only 4C (39,2F) and there was a layer of clouds early showing the sun, so the first thing we did was to jump in to the car so I could deliver invitations to the road association meeting we’ll have next Saturday. We drove away […]
