    Dark and grey again even though we almost could see the sun for a few seconds in the afternoon πŸ™‚ We were supposed to have rain but it missed us. Perhaps a good thing because there’s so much water in the creek now that if we would get lots more it would overflow. I could…

  • A new morning routine :-)

    December 17, 2025

    We’ve had two really grey and dark days but today the sun suddenly appeared again (of course not while we were out walking) and it felt really strange πŸ™‚ It didn’t give any heat away though so I guess it appeared just for show πŸ™‚ Still we were in the garden enjoying it as much…

  • They behaved really well today :-)

    December 14, 2025

    Rain all day long, not even the monster likes to go outside. It is warmish outside though but that doesn’t help much since we really can’t be outside anyway. The travel cage for hamsters that I bought arrived today so I went to the grocery store in Gudhem to pick it up. They have so…

  • Saint Lucia’s day.

    December 13, 2025

    We didn’t have an especially long morning walk today, we had walked perhaps half of what we usually do when I suddenly heard a shot not especially far from us. It wasn’t our hunters but in the castles grounds neighbouring to this area. Well even if they were outside where we usually walk I really…

  • They are not the most courageous :-)

    December 12, 2025

    So yesterday after it had gone dark I found another little mouse in the box trap. I thought I really couldn’t leave it there all night so I took the trap and started to walk towards the forest. Since I was sure I wouldn’t Β meet anyone (even though there are some people who loves to…

  • Lots of water in the creek.

    December 10, 2025

    So we had a night without any disturbance thankfully but Alma was in a hurry to go outside. She hurried away behind some bushes in the garden so I couldn’t see how bad it was but she’s full of energy and happy so I guess she’s ok. She’s not the one pooping outside the garden…

  • So tired.

    December 9, 2025

    I’m a bit tired today because a certain big dog decided to raid the peanuts that was supposed to go to the birds. Of course this created chaos and havoc to her stomach. If I’m saying high pressure diarrhea due to huge amount of gasses sort of ruined the night πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Today my…

  • Only 13 more days till the winter solstice.

    December 8, 2025

    So I had another little mouse in the box trap this morning, I do hope that’s the last one for this season πŸ™‚ But just in case more will visit I’ve now bought a small travel cage for hamsters on our eBay called Tradera. So if they’ll get caught while it still is dark outside…

  • December 6, 2025

    Perhaps the darkest day so far but fairly warm, no wind and no rain so I can’t complain too much. We had our morning walk fairly late because I had to pick up two parcels that arrived a bit late yesterday at the grocery store in Gudhem. One was the two quality street boxes and…

  • Mice and Christmas bread.Mice.

    December 5, 2025

    Β  Nothing much have happened here today. I noticed the other day that the monsterkitten has been a bit sloppy when it comes to hunting mice because I found mouse poop in the cool cellar. So I put up a box trap and filled it with coconut flakes. Our mice love coconut and I think…

    If the weather two days ago was meh, yesterdays weather was meeeh and today we were back to meh again. Not a lot of variation but today we didn’t have to deal with misty rain. If we’re going to have rain just give us regular showers so we at least can put the right clothes…

  • December 2, 2025

    A slow day, windy and cloudy and some drizzle in between. I did almost see the sun for a second though πŸ™‚ Not especially cold but not close to be warmish either. Mostly a meh weather day with other words πŸ™‚ Thankfully for me the only sport I like to follow, Biathlon, season has started…
