It was only yesterday, when I walked around in my sleeveless undershirt, almost considering to take it off, whilst working on our land. I 'complained' to Clare that the (Winter) socks that I had picked

I have about 50 minutes to write this post, as that is when the bar closes that @clareartista and I are sitting in, drinking a latte macchiato for a change.

This morning, @clareartista and I woke up from a little bit of sunshine, making its way into our bedroom ( a couple of meters away from our bed ). It was still pretty chilly, even though we had had the

Today was pretty rainy, very grey and quite chilly. And so was yesterday But it was worth it, just for the view alone We woke up early and decided that - instead of sitting inside, around the stove, burning

Our neighbor's cat is a bit of a sad case... It does not help that her ( former ) owner, an Italian farmer in his mid to late eighties does not visit his land any longer. And - in fact - hasn't done so

I am seriously considering to patent my latest 'invention': the charging potato. My phone wasn't working for 4 days in a row. It simply didn't want to charge at all, no matter what I tried.

After a number of depressing, humid, grey, rainy days, with hardly any sunshine, I managed to briefly get a couple of sunrays on my face whilst on a walk, yesterday afternoon...

Another week has passed since my post about experiencing our first snow(fall) on our land. It almost seemed it would snow again. It sure was cloudy, humid, rainy and cold enough
