  • 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…

    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…

  • December 1, 2025

    Mixed weather here today, anything from misty rain to drizzle and then showers but also a lot of sunshine and it was so nice to stand in it feeling the warmth from it. Tomorrow it’ll be 4C (39,2F) all day, both day and night but with no chance of seeing the sun they say. It…

  • It continues to stay warmish :-)

    November 30, 2025

    The days have been warmish now with a bit of sunshine yesterday but with mostly drizzle today. Not cold enough to feel that it’s ok staying indoors all day but not warm enough to actually wanting to do anything outdoors πŸ™‚ We’ve been out on our walks but nothing more really. I’ve put together the…

  • Warmer again :-)

    November 28, 2025

    The weather has changed rather dramatically from freezing cold to rather nice and warmish. 7C (44,6F) as highest so now everything is muddy again πŸ™‚ The wind has stayed though. One good thing is that the water barrels all now has thawed so I can bring in water to all the potted plants. It seems…

  • I almost missed it :-)

    November 26, 2025

    Β  We woke up to a cold and foggy world today which, despite the cold, is one of my favourite weathers πŸ™‚ So as soon as it was light enough the dogs and I walked out to the bog. If I had known the fog would stay all day we would have had a longer…
