My Cattleya hybrid has started to bloom now. It´s a shame it smells so bad :-)

It´s even colder outside today and this night it´ll be even worse. As long as I can stay out of the winds it´s bareble though. My dogs however loves the cold winds. Hector loves them most of all. He has the same warm fur as his grandmothers father that was a NewFoundland. He thinks all temperatures over freezing point is to warm :-)

Since the hunt still is going on today I had to walk by the fields. There is an old well not far from my cottage and I like to see if there ever is some water in it nowdays. But the walls in it has fallen down long ago. Sonowdays a birch grows up from it. Further down grows a fern too. I wonder hopw long ago they used it daily.

They were going to have negotiations at work today, but some information were not there? so they will start on thursday again. People are getting more and more nervous now and all they seeme to talk about is what they think is going to happen. I try to tell them that there is no use to speculate over things we don´t know anything about or can in any way affect until we get some answers. But even if they agree they start to speculate seconds after. I feel so sorry for them, some people have troubles sleeping now.

But here in my little cottage all is calm and nice. There´s a fire in the stove, my dogs sleep in my bed together with Bertil the cat. Teodor is sleeping on the couch in my livingroom. I think I´ll make some sandwiches with cheese, meatballs and perhaps liver pate. Perhaps those sandwiches will take a tour into the oven too? Warm sanwiches, a cup of tea and a good book is a great end of the evening I think!

Have a great day now, I will :-)
