For some odd reason this flower is called "Snakes eye" in swedish. It spreads like crazy if it grows in a woodland. Soon I will have a carpet of blue flowers there :-)

I actully woke up early this morning, not because I wasn´t tired but had too :-) When I came down to the bottom floor it was really cold and it was frost outside, -4C ( 25F). But thankfully no pot plants that I put outside got damage. Mostly I was worried that the nectarine flowerbuds should have froze to death, but they seemes okey. But now we´re getting colder weather again so for a moment I thought of going to Falkoping to buy some firelogs to put in the stowe, but since I´m getting both my hips x-rayd in Falkoping on Monday I can as well wait until then.

This little primula is called 'Annica'. One of the first to bloom here.

The cold front is comming. Looks worse than it is though. The clouds are very thin so the sun has no problems shining through.

My old dog Erna has problems with her back, so sometimes she´s loosing weight and has problems with her back legs (she gets lumbar paralysis ) . I noticed the other day that her backproblems had started again. She tried to jump over a small creek, that normally she just would have walked over. This time however she fell right into it. All the way home she sort of wobbled with her back legs. Not long ago that would have meant her time would be over, but nowdays there´s a great medicine that makes her back okey again. The fun thing is that she understands how important it is that she gets this medicine. Normally she can be very cranky when it comes to eating, but when I´ve let her sniff on the medicine botle (I put the medicine in her food) she eats all the food directly without fuzzing about it. So now she´s like she was as young again. Playing around and have fun with her sons. Fantastic how things can change just over a couple of days.

Where ever I´m picking out weeds from my flowrbeds Teodor is just beside me :-)

I had to mowe the lawn yesterday. It wasn´t that hard because the grass had started to grow a litte bit here and there. I have no engine on my lawn mower so it´s really nice going around with it. I can still hear all the birds sing and I don´t have to inhale all the fumes from an engine. When the grass is dry and short as it is now, that lawnmower is perfekt. But when the rains starts in early autumn it´s just useless :-) The wheels just slide over the wet grass and the longer the grass gets, the longer time it takes to dry up. Finally the grass is to long and still wet and then I wish I had an engine on the lawnmower :-) I´ve heard that there is one lawn mower that is like mine but with a small electric engine on it. Then it would cut the grass even if the wheels just slide over the wet grass. Think I´m going to look for something like that later this spring. But I´ve said that for the last three years :-)
Have a great day now!

The willow is also in bloom and that gives all the bumblebees food to start up their new community.
