Sunny days.

Nothing special has happened, the days pass fairly quickly anyway. The sun has been shining these last two days and even though the sky has been more or less cloud free we still haven’t had frost at nights. That will change tonight they say, so I’m preparing myself for ice scraping the car tomorrow morning. […]

I didn’t know they were on.

So the moose hunt has begun so we can’t take our walks in the forest today (nor yesterday). Well they left pretty early yesterday so we might be able to go there later today but the lovely sunshine will most likely be gone by then. The temperature fell down to 0C (32F) this morning but […]

Does it stand for Does Not Serve? :-)

I tried to go out on the net yesterday and I don’t think I’ve had such good coverage in many years but still I couldn’t. When my computer tried to locate what the problem was it said that something was wrong with a DNS server. I have no idea what that is but I guess […]

Renewing the electricity contract.

I’ve nothing to say really. The weather has been nice and work days have passed quickly. I went to the optician yesterday and he corrected what I felt was wrong, I’ll get a text message the day the lenses arrive. It is time to renew my electricity contract. I haven’t checked what they offer yet […]

I’m so glad she stayed in the garden.

I let the dogs out just before going to bed yesterday evening, Albin came back rather soon and just as he was walking indoors I hear Alma bark like crazy and she’s not playing, she was furious. She was at the other side of the garden, barking towards the big pasture but since it was […]

The cold air hit me like a ton of bricks.

Some morning it feels like it’s just impossible to wake up, this morning was one of those. Then I opened the door to let the dogs out and I woke up in a second, it was -4C (24,8F) and that cold air hit me like a ton of bricks 🙂 🙂 🙂 The rest of […]

Strong winds and sunshine.

It drizzled some when I drove home after work today but I think that was all we got, places in the south tip of this country got more today than they usually get during this month. Well they’ve had so little rain this year that they need it but I guess the problem is that […]

Plum, satsuma and apple jam :-)

It was supposed to be cloudy all day here so I wasn’t the least surprised that we’ve had sunshine for most part of the day. Ok there has been clouds but the sun has had long periods of shining through. It has been fairly warm as well, 17C (62,6F) so the radiators have been turned […]

New lenses.

Once again I had to scrape ice from my car before leaving for work, I really don’t like it 🙂 Still it doesn’t seem to have been that cold in the garden because nothing looks frozen at all. I guess that my high hedge and the fact that my cottage and my neighbors cottage stays […]

Rather chilly.

Yesterday was sunny and nice until it was time to drive home after work, the rest of the day was grey and murky. Today the clouds stayed away and we had some nice sunshine when we had our afternoon walk. Not warm though, northern winds made sure of that. Nothing much has happened here and […]

It’s warm on the sunny side.

The sun has mostly shined all day but the temperature has barely reached above 13C (55,4F). It does feel much warmer in the house on the southern part of it where the sun hits than it does on the northern side (and I mean indoors). So while I’ve been able to have the kitchen door […]
