I woke up rather early and got to see this sunrise.

It´s quite nice outside even though the clouds hang low and the temperature could be higher. But the ever lasting wind is at least fairly warm. They had promised thunderstorms all night and all day yesterday, but we didn´t get it until late aftersnoon. It wasn´t much of a thunderstoorm to be honest, but I didn´t dare go out on the internet until rather late last night.

The light becomes rather strange when there is fog in the morning. But it is very beautiful I think.

I have had problems keeping up with everything this last week. I´ve been late posting my blog, late reading others, so I only managed to read a few before I had to go to bed. It has been one of those weeks when it had been better sleeping it through :-) But it´s not only I that has been like that, every one at work has been just like me. No one can say that he has been sick in any way, but every one has been tired and has had trouble getting things done. Perhaps it´s the weather change? We had summer temperatures all April and that is unusual in it self and now it has been rather cold and cloudy. That can make any one tired I think.

The 'Portal' is almost closed in the top now.

The lily of the valley has started too bloom now.

My car problems might have gotten a solution. I have a friend that is going to sell his little Mazda 323. It´s very well kept and looks newer than it probably is. He wants a bit more that I wanted to spend on a car. But on the other hand I´m getting a lot more payed now when I´m working on Saturdays and Sundays, so I think that evens it out rather well. It doesn´t use a lot of petrol either and now since the price went up to over six US dollars/US gallons that is a very good thing :-)

At least one of my Bleeding hearts survived the two hard frostnights we had a week ago.

It looks like the sun is shining through the clouds, so I think I´ll get a cup of tea and go out to the kitchen stairs for a while.
Have a great day now!

The Lilac tree has also started to bloom now. Last year i cut down my 45 meters (148 feet) long lilac hedge so it wount bloom this year. But there is still so much lilacs here that the smell will fill my garden and home. It´s beautiful, but personally I think it´s a terrible weed and I wouldn´t be sorry if they all just died.
