Mixed stuff

Ohh, now my time to blog again!
The week go so fast I think, well at least it felt like that today. Todays blog will be about some different things.

Last saturday my sister and me was at a tracking test with Ubbe (honour office dog) up in Hällefors, about 6 swedish miles from here. It was quite early so I was up already at 06.00 in the morning. The test is a working test for hunting dogs as daschhound is. He did rather well and got a second price, hmmm he missed a bit in a angle but hasen't he done that he would have got a first price. It is the first price you want and for that you get the CC:s (certifikate). But it was ok because the time was excellent, 32 minutes :-), he has been quite slow before. After that we stayed an watch when they had the badger tests, Ubbe and Molly has only tried it once but will continue with it next season. It was a good day and long day, we was home at about 16.00-16.30 something.
They day after (sunday) I was really tired and fall to sleep on the kitchen sofa (it is a hard one) and sleept there for about 3 ours!! I was kind of "after tired". But it's no good to sleep in the afternoon, I couldn't sleep in the night instead!

In the evening the other day, i think it was on monday. At round 21.00 or something it started to blow and storm quite a lot! It sounded much and then it started to rain also, hmmmm - grrrrrr I just say. This is a typical autumn "thing", autumn storm. I don't like it at all, neither do my dogs! Hopefully it was just this "storm" but I know it will come moore :-(.



Yesterday evening Gun has arranged a "Wellness" evening here at the office. It was one of her son's that came and tell us about some good stuff that you can eat and drink to feel good both in mind and body. We also got to taste a lot of things, like a herbal tea, that tasted quite good actually :-). It was nice so, Thanks Gun!

A normal day in my office room start with me putting on the computor and then I check the mail, answer some, send some further. Then I check if there is some book that I have to start the setting on or continue with one. Maybe I do some corrections on a picture and so goes the day.
Today for exampel it was a short breake when I helped Mattias outside at the stable, I just hold some board. Then some school friends to Josephine came and took a short ridning tour on Sunny. At the same time, Ofelia entangled in the tail in one of the wacky spring gates, they are rubbish and now Mattias understand why I think that :-). Well it did go well and I hold Ofelia so Marianne could take it out from her tail. Then me and Mattias fixed a new normal rope gate instead.

I have in the evenings a bit hard to go to bed, I am an evening and night "owl" :-). I look at tv, internet or fixing with some other stuff on the computor or maybe anything craft things, it depends on my mood at the time.
Quite late, I was actually on my way to bed:-) I got a nice sms on the mobile phone. That made my evening and I was really happy about that :-).
So you all out there make your friends happy with some "small" words, it does not need to be much, just some nice words. Perhaps a few words that you know would make that person happy.

Words are not just words;
a few barely audible sounds
can link up people

Use nice words to each other!

Working man

Hi all

Well my time to blog again. Last week my thought was to show some pictures of when Mattias (our right-hand-man) did some work. But we couldn't find the card reader to the SanDisk card. So it comes this week instead :-).
Well Mattias is doing a lot of things, both possible and impossible things. And he is always very helpful and try to help if he can. He always makes up when he can! And he is also good at massage!!!

He has in recent weeks, with some help has his hands full of finishing making the horse boxes ready for Ophelia and Sunny to move in. The boxes are ready now and they look nice :-). Well done Mattias!


The nice new boxes.

The boxes are big and nice just waiting for the horses to move in. Well there must of course be some soft straw, sawdust or peat on the floor. And then it´s ready for the horses! Well Mattias has to try them (the boxes) too. So his new name now is Ophelia :-):-):-):-).


Mattias our right-hand-man "as" Ophelia.

And now he has his hands full with making place for a nice little paddock (field) for the horses to be out during the days. Well he must first take away some old asphalt. Hmmm wrong first we had to set fire on the old rubbish pile, that was fun :-). We, well me and him just put some paper and then he poured on some kind of fuel and then............. pooooooof it said. Sh........t wich blow it was and it did get really warm also. I couldn't be near it any longer!


The fire, look how high the flames became!

So things happens on the Bombadil office ground. And soon the horses will move from the place where I have my old "Maxen" to the office area :-).

Will end with these words:

"It is a consolation that autumn is so beautiful."

Hmm I'm not liking the autumn but these words are pretty nice :-).

Bye bye until next time

Autum in the air

Hello out there

Well last evening when I was at the stable, as I always are every day. I just felt that it had started to be colder outside. I couldn't be without my "oil" coat!!! Noo, noo my thoughts come at once. I don´t like the autumn and the dark moist weather that will come more and more :(. I prefer spring and summer and warm weather, i want sun! By other words I don´t like the change from summer to autumn.
One nice thing it is, just one, the colours that will appear in the trees, that can be really amasing! Hmm actually one more thing, you can harvest the things that you have sowed and eat it up.


Some nice colours in a rowanberry tree. You can actually do jelly out of these!

Ohh by the way, yesterday we collected the first examples of the two Spanish books "La Dama De Negro" and "31 Cuentos Cortos". That was really nice to have them in the hands, to see them. It was hard to do them because I can´t speak Spanish and didn´t understand more than a very few words!

And at the same time I collected my new passport and Id card, jiiipppiii. Now, now I can go somewhere, don´t know where yet but I have some thoughts and wishes :-). Like I have write somewhere else (FB) i can be "free to fly like a dove and free to go wherever I want". I´m really happy about this.

So bye bye for this time
