Day 32 - February 1st - How long do we have to wait?
After a few days of absence the sun was kind enough to show up this afternoon. Buddha looks quite happy and smiles at the sun. But the birds are not satisfied. They want more than this. They are waiting for spring as much as I do. But it will be a long wait here on the 60th degree

April is the month it reliably morphs from cold to nicer. Same for you?Probably longer than us at 52°
Not every year but quite often. In Sweden we have the expression “aprilväder” which can be used for weather of all months with the meaning unreliable and quickly changing weather. May is almost always nice.April is the month it reliably morphs from cold to nicer. Same for you?
Looks like a great month Eva
Well done. I know how much time and effort those financial reports take.Day 34 - February 3rd - I made it
Got up in the middle of the night and worked on with the financial report. And at noon I suddenly realised I was ready to click the “send” button. I did that and looked outside and discovered it was a beautiful perfect winter day. Hurried out for a long relaxing walk.
a hammock? Snapseed

When I was still working I was a financial admin at the university. I used to say that Linus report was more difficult than the yearly reports at workWell done. I know how much time and effort those financial reports take.
Wow, look at that ice in your garden!! Love the portrait.Day 36 - February 5th - Beautiful, but I’ve had enough of ice now
I got so happy over today’s bright sunshine. Thought I’d take an extra long walk. But to my great disappointment it was so icy on the road that I felt dead scared even with my Icebugs on. A quick glance at my Watch told me my heartbeat was super high. So as soon as I had accomplished my daily goal I called DH and commanded him to come and fetch me up.
the garden is icy too. This was taken halfanhour after sunrise
Edited in Snapseed and PTG or was it Lightroom. Already forgot

tomorrow: from sunrise 7:50 to sunset at 16:15 8h25m so quite a big difference from a few weeks ago. It’s changing fast now. And if we count from first light to last light we have almost 10 hoursHow many hours of daylight do you have now?
Yikes.Day 38 - February 7th - Gotcha
We‘re under attack by wasps We think they hibernate in narrow chinks (?) in the southern wall and wake up on sunny days. So we have them everywhere in our kitchen and livingroom. I really don’t get how they got inside the house in the first place. But probably the house isn’t completely “dense”. I’m very much against killing other creatures, but these invaders deserve to die The fly-swatters are busy

I was surprised to find that our daylight hours are 10 hours, 15 min. I had expected yours to be much shorter than ours with the near total night you experience.tomorrow: from sunrise 7:50 to sunset at 16:15 8h25m so quite a big difference from a few weeks ago.

Sweden is a ”tall” country. The parts of Sweden which have polar nights are about 1000 km from where we live. And we have 750 km to the most southern part. Here in midwinter we still have light for a few hoursI was surprised to find that our daylight hours are 10 hours, 15 min. I had expected yours to be much shorter than ours with the near total night you experience.
