  • Surprisingly pleasant day.

    May 3, 2025

    We’ve actually had a really nice day here as long as one wasn’t too long in shadow 🙂 Ok , it wasn’t that bad there either but I preferred to sit in the sunshine and drink tea 🙂 I have moved a perennial that comes from Illinois, the Kankakee mallow (Iliamna remota). It has actually…

  • I didn’t rest on the workers’ day :-)

    May 2, 2025

    Yesterday was supposed to be the last nice day before wind and rain would arrive. We would get some light rain here in the morning and the rest of the day would be rather dull. So I’m not the least surprised that no rain arrived and we’ve even had a lot of sunshine 🙂 So…

  • Holiday tomorrow.

    April 30, 2025

    Wonderful weather today, which is quite unusual on Walpurgis eve. Lots of people are out having fun tonight and quite often we have huge bonfires as well but at least here it will be too windy and to dry in the grass to have any. No one knows why we celebrate this day but who…

  • Cold when cloudy.

    April 27, 2025

    We had frost again last night but just barely and nothing seems to have been damaged this time. The morning walk was really pleasant, especially since Alma had another good day. We could even pass the new neighbours without her going crazy 🙂 🙂 We had pancakes today and I did the dinner for next…

  • Heavy frost last night.

    April 26, 2025

    -6C (21,2F) here this morning. One could feel it in the air already late afternoon that it would be cold but I didn’t think it would drop down that much. The morning walk was really nice though because the sun was blasting heat towards us at the same time as the ground still was so…

  • It has been pouring down.

    April 23, 2025

    Well the rain that didn’t fall during easter did fall yesterday evening, all night and well in to this day 🙂 We need it so I will for once not complain about it. I did forget to check how much it filled up the water barrels though, I want them full before summer starts properly.…

  • She darted in when I opened the door :-)

    April 21, 2025

    No rain and slightly warmer today so we’ve spent a lot of time in the garden the dogs and I. The monster kitten has mostly stayed indoors or went out when we’ve gone inside again :-)Yesterday evening she refused to go indoors when the rest of us were on our way to bed, first time…

  • Sort of meh weather.

    April 20, 2025

    I don’t mind the little rain we’ve got but it is a bit chilly to be honest. That and a high humidity forces me to turn on the radiators again. Not a much but enough to keep that humidity outside. We haven’t been close to how much rain they predicted, the ground is still bone…

  • Last warm and nice day fora while.

    April 18, 2025

    Even though it has been cloudy almost all day, with an exception for the afternoon, install has been a rather nice day. 15C (59F). Not especially windy either but then again I rarely notice the wind here in the hollow where I live. Alma behaved really well while we were walking and Malkolm didn’t pull…

  • The potatoes are down.

    April 17, 2025

    Today I could feel that I was a bit faster while working than yesterday even though I’m still pretty slow 🙂 I got a better flow while working. I had a short day at work though because today I had my kidney x-rayed again. I guess I’ll have the result in one or two weeks.…

  • April 15, 2025

    Two days of working at my new job and I like the place. Industrial jobs are fun until Your good at it but what’s important are the work friends and I have good ones. We don’t speak much while working but we have fun at our breaks and that’s important. It sort of feels odd…

  • The last day of my seven month long vacation :-)

    April 13, 2025

    They said it would be more cloudy today but I haven’t notice that much difference to be honest. the big difference is the strong wind and that we had frost and morning mist when I woke up. A good thing when it is this warm during the days is that the frost is pushed upwards…
