I do hope for the Spring to fully ‘flowering’ soon and that the lovely summertime will be here in a short time. It is time to post a summertime picture for us all to view and enjoy.

Morning has broken and what a morning! The weather is snow, snow and guess what! snow. Tomorrow we are going to the kennel to visit the coming parents of the dog we have planned to buy. I do hope it will stop snowing and I wish you all a great day!

This is all I got see of the sun this weekend in Mandal. The weather was snow and wind all weekend except of the day we needed to drive home.

And on top of it all I did lose my wedding ring in the snow. I noticed it was gone after 2 minutes in the car, but when we came back from the store 15 minutes later, the neighbor had driven the motor snowplow over the place at least 2 times. I have a small hope for the spring, but it is a small hope.

The weather is snowy and it is white clouds and boring lights. I am going a trip to my sister in the weekend so maybe there will be some pictures from the south of Norway next week.

This is a lovely day and I hope you all have a lovely day.

I have had much to do lately and are now working with a new computer. I was going to try out the new SSD hard drives and it did work very well for about 6 hours then it didn’t. Full stop and it was my system drive so it did add a lot of work to get the computer up and running again. So now I am using an ordinary hard drive until I get a new SSD drive from the supplier and I do hope it will go better next time.

We have decided to buy us a dog and it will be an Airedale Terrier. I guess it will go about six month before we get one. It will be a joy and I guess you all will see a lot of pictures in here too.
