• Wind, wind and wind.

    February 3, 2026

      We were lucky this morning that the wind didn’t blow at all, it started as soon as we had come home though. It. looks like a high pressure is stuck in its position and either refuse or can’t move along like any descent pressure would have done long ago. Instead it just stays and…

  • A nice visitor :-)

    February 2, 2026

      Windy and cold all day but I did see a little patch of blue sky when we went out on our morning walk. I had been to the supermarket before we went out though to buy yeast. I tried baking soda bread but I’m never good at it, plus don’t eat too much soda…

  • A very polite hunting dog :-)

    January 31, 2026

      Today would have been so great if it hadn’t been for the biting cold eastern wind. The sun has been shining all day and if the wind has been coming from almost any other direction my garden would have been wind free, instead it has hit us hard all day except for in the…

  • I’ve picked up my car.

    January 29, 2026

      So they texted me long after they had closed that my car was fixed. I didn’t mind since I had the car I could borrow anyway so I went there this morning to pick it up. The exhaust pipe wasn’t broken thankfully but the seals where the different parts of the exhaust fume pipes…

  • Rather dull days.

    January 28, 2026

      I had to drive to the garage early this morning so they could fix the problems the car had and clear it so I can drive around with it legally 🙂 I was there just after 7 am and picked up the car I could have while waiting for mine. It is a small…

  • We might get sunshine tomorrow :-)

    January 25, 2026

        I was so tired when. I woke up this morning around 5 am that after the dogs had been outside I went back to the bed and slept for two more hours, that’s very unusual for me. Normally I just gets up and starts with the food for us all. I would have…

  • Snowy day.

    January 24, 2026

        It has been snowing here all day but it barely shows on the ground. I’m not happy about it but I feel I really can’t complain about it since there are places in the US that will have it so much worse. According to the weather sites the temperatures will stay as they…

  • Nasty wind and sowing season has started :-)

    January 23, 2026

    Same nasty wind as yesterday but from a slightly different angle, south east this time and that made the walk so much nicer since it couldn’t reach us most of the way. Still not especially fun weather and both Alma and Malkolm pulled their leashes almost all the way. Well it could have been worse…

  • Windy and cold and the cone of shame.

    January 22, 2026

    Nasty and cold winds from east but oddly enough not that cold, just below 0C (32F) during the day. Temperatures will drop during the night though. I can say that our morning walk was anything but nice, there was just one place in the forest where the wind didn’t reach us. I now know that…

  • The day after the vet visit.

    January 21, 2026

    It hasn’t been as cold as they guessed it would be but anything beneath 10C (50F) is too cold for me 🙂 Well it works with colder degrees as long as the wind doesn’t blow and it hasn’t until now, we have a biting cold eastern wind blowing and it is anything but nice. So…

  • Cold again but at least sunny.

    January 19, 2026

    I had to go to the supermarket this morning because since Malkolm will be neutered tomorrow I don’t want to leave him until he has healed properly. I’m not the least worried he would do anything to the area (I guess there won’t be any stitches that he can try and remove though) but I’m…

  • One more day before it gets cold again, yay

    January 17, 2026

    Mostly grey and dull today, the sunrise that almost happened was really beautiful for a few seconds and then it was gone behind the clouds. I didn’t mind that much because it was at least over 0C (32F). We actually almost saw the sun one more time when there was a rip in the cloud…
