  • Apricot and banana jam :-)

    August 5, 2022

    So today is the last day of my vacation, tomorrow is just an ordinary weekend. One could say that the vacation actually goes on until Sunday but I prefer to feel that Sunday’s just another Sunday and the day after is a work day, feels less dramatic that way 🙂 Still I could win the…

  • I’ve failed the only goal I had :-)

    August 3, 2022

    I’ve failed the only goal I had for this vacation and it was such an easy goal to reach to be honest. I had decided that I should take a nap every day all four weeks but I’ve only really done it since last Friday 🙂 🙂 🙂 (I don’t count dozing off in front…

  • It could have rained a bit more.

    August 1, 2022

    It rained during last night and it was quite nice to step outside when I let the dogs out. We didn’t get especially much though but any drop helps. We didn’t have any morning walk today because I wanted to go to the pet store and buy that spray that ticks don’t like. I guess…

  • So many ticks.

    Nothing much has happened here. Yesterday morning started out much like the previous one, cold and sunny, so the morning mist was just starting to build up when some clouds came and destroyed it all. They prevented the heat from the sun to evaporate the cold morning dew so no morning mist. This morning had…

  • Sometimes I do wonder about our postal service!

    July 28, 2022

    So I woke up to e clear sky just before the sun started to rise and we went out for our morning walk as soon as I had put on my clothes and the dogs their harnesses. I did take a look at the thermometer before we went out and it showed 4C (39,2F). It…

  • Terrible morning.

    July 26, 2022

    So we went out for our morning walk and while Alma was quite calm yesterday she today had decided not to be. It went fairly well to be honest but as we were passing the beekeepers home I was more concentrated on keeping her quiet since she has a tendency to start shouting when we…

  • I thought they had some in stock :-)

    July 24, 2022

    We’ve had a rather nice day here. According to the weather sites it should have started sunny and pretty early on slowly turn towards cloudy, so I wasn’t the least surprised when it started cloudy but then slowly turned towards sunny 🙂 🙂 🙂 We had a few hours of sunshine and the temperature rose…

  • Finally cooling down!

    July 22, 2022

    Yesterday was horrible. We didn’t set a new heat record but it was still the hottest day in 73 years. Here in the village it reached 36C (96,8F) before it slowly, slowly started to get less hot. I really don’t want to go through that kind of heat again but most likely I will because…

  • I’ve finally found out what she’s good at!

    July 21, 2022

    I’m writing this early today because yesterday was so hot here that my computer had a slight heatstroke 🙂 🙂 Suddenly the fan inside it worked insanely hard, have never heard it working that hard before and then the computer froze and the fan stopped working at all. I quickly went down to the freezer…

  • The beginning of our three day heat wave.

    July 19, 2022

      It has been hot here today, Scandinavian hot that is, 28C (82,4F) and it isn’t nice at all. No problem at the beginning of it though because we had a strong and cool wind blowing but when the wind died out so did our energy 🙂 Alma tried to be full of energy for…

  • I really don’t like to change phone.

    July 17, 2022

    Another rather nice day, at least after a while. The morning was quite chilly but we had sunshine and the flies were still hiding in the vegetation trying to stay warm. We went out on a short walk because Nova didn’t seem to want to go at all. She isn’t as alert that she once…

  • There’s a heat wave on the continent, some places here had 8C (46,4F) as warmest today :-) :-)

    July 15, 2022

    So I wrote a post here early this morning when suddenly the web site froze and refused to save any drafts. The odd thing was that I could continue to write without any problems. I also couldn’t post what I had written but clicked to save it so I just could update the site and…
