The sun set yesterday. During summer there is no place by my cottage thet lays in shadow for a whole day. there´s either morning or evening sun all around.

It´s a cold and damp day here by the Cranelake. Even though the clock is 9:20 am the temperature is still around 1C (34F). The early morning were foggy but that has at least dissapered now. Just a bit north from here it´ll snow today and they say by tomorrow the´ll have around 10cm (4 inches) of snow. Well it won´t stay for long since the day will become to warm for that, but still. This is typical April weather.

I´ve started to walk with a crutch again. A couple of days ago I started to sneeze a lot and suddenly it felt like a muscle broke :-) :-) I didn´t know how many muscles are involved in a sneeze, but now I know that the thigh muscle is :-) :-) It still hurts but not as much as before so I hope it´ll be gone by next week when I´m going to the hospital to meet my doctor.

I´m going to the hospital today too but this time for taking x-rays of the hip and I´m sure that it will look good. After that I´ll buy some fire logs since the weather seemes to stay rather cold for at least a couple of days.Spring seemes to have taken a short vacation at the moment.

I feel it´s time to put more firelogs in the stove and refill my cup with tea. I do hope it won´t snow here today since all of us now have summer tires and they are pretty useless in cold snow.

Have a great day now!

Teodor seldom follows us on our walks, but he is usually waiting for us at home.

 

The House sparrow nests under the tiles of my cottage. As You can see they have cleaned out last yeras grass and put it in the gutter. This is the male, the female is probably inside warming the eggs.
