Thaw

Regardless of my wishes, which I expressed in my blog yesterday, there has been thaw today. We have had temperatures of several degrees above the freezing point. I want to have winter and more snow to jump around in.


We will have to see if the thaw persists. I hope not.

Snow

Snow fell this morning. While there was snow on the ground already, it was less than a centimetre. Now I think we have at least three centimetres of snow. We have also had temperatures a little below the freezing point all day. This is good, it is real winter and I like this.

Kisses

This evening, Paula asked Daniel for a kiss. He said he could not, however, because he was busy petting me.


Paula is such a great human, that she accepted this objection hands down. 


Nothing comes between a dog and her human.

Work

Daniel is working again, the days between Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve. He is satisfied with this.


I cannot understand the joy Daniel sees in sitting in front of the computer reading and writing all day. For me, writing my blog for a couple of minutes is quite enough. 


The advantage of the pandemic is that Daniel works from home a lot. He did this today as well. We can have him with us, even though he is working. Life is good.

Staying Indoors

It has been a cold day outdoors. We have spent most of it indoors, just because of the cold. Life is good, when we have lazy days like this.

Missing Telephone

Paula has misplaced her mobile phone more than once today. I can see why this annoys her. Unfortunately, it annoys the rest of us as well, when she asks for help again and again to find it again. 


Apart from this, it has been a good day. We have mostly taken it easy. Christmas Day is a good day, this way.

Christmas Eve

It is Christmas Eve, and we get more tasty food than ordinary. Christmas is great this way.


Now I have to return to our Christmas celebrations.


Merry Christmas, everyone!

Honey Moved

My granddaughter Honey moved to her new family today. This is a great family, where my brother Nemo lived. Honey will not replace him, but there was room for her when Nemo left. I do not even need to wish Honey a great life, I know she will get a great life with this family. This makes me happy.

The Kennel

Hello, Honey here!


This is my first installment in my grandmother Polly’s blog. I am at her house, at the kennel whose kennel prefix is in my name in my pedigree. Grandmother says I could write more entries in the future, whenever I visit the kennel. I would like this. It feels like a good idea, writing a blog. We will have to see when I can do this.


Merry Christmas!

New Family

My grandson Dino moved to his new family this afternoon. They were here to fetch him. It was a nice couple of humans. I am sure Dino will get a good life with them.


It feels good that my grandpups will live with great families. My granddaughter will move to the family where my brother Nemo lived. These are great people, too. 


Paula and Daniel are good at finding new families for pups. They have experience now, but also talent. This is a good combination. It makes for happy lives for the pups.

Pups

My grandpups Honey and Dino, pups of my daughter Gertrud, went through their veterinary examination today. They passed with flying colours. I did not expect anything less. 

The pups will move to their new families later this week. They will both live in Örebro. This is a good town, so this will be nice for them.

They Are Back

Paula took Piffy and Morran with her and went over to her sister Mia's place yesterday afternoon. They did not return until this afternoon.

We did very well at home with Daniel. At the same time, I could not help remembering the summer two years ago, when Paula was gone almost half the year. She had to, she was at the hospital, and it was worst for her. It was no fun for us either. I an glad Peanut and the Chihuahuas were not around to experience this. A lot has happened since.

I am always best at ease when the whole family is at home. Life is good now, when Paula, Morran, and Piffy are back home again.

Wooden Batteries

A new Swedish company is starting a production of batteries made primarily out of wood. This seems like a great product. I hope the company will succeed.

Swedish Heroes

There is a live show in TV tonight where heroes in Sweden are celebrated. We liked it best that there was a dog who became Swedish animal hero. This was the German Spitz Lovis, who works with her human to visit old people who needs company and activation. This is a true hero.

Lasagne

Paula had promised Daniel homemade lasagne for dinner. She is a great lasagne cook. 


Of course, I helped. I believe this made the lasagne even better. 


We all got to taste a little lasagne. It was as great as ever. It was a good evening.

Thaw

From temperatures well below the freezing point for many days, we have had +5⁰ C today. The snow and ice has thawed. Will we have a green Christmas again this year? We had our hopes up for a white Christmas. 


It is not to late for more cold days and snow, but it seems like the odds for a white Christmas has gone up. The hope is still with us, however.

Ten Days to Go

Christmas Eve is in just ten days. This is a day of great treats. I just wonder what we shall give as Christmas gifts to Paula and Daniel. It seems like I am the responsible one who have to take charge and see to it that this happens. I will get back to this issue later.

A Day Lost

It looks like I forgot to write in the blog yesterday. I cannot figure out why. Most days, I have no trouble remembering to write in the blog. What made me forget yesterday is beyond me.

A Thrilling Final Race

The Formula 1 championship seemed to go to the same man as the last years. He led with a few laps to go. He needed to end before his closest competitor, which he would do. Then there was an accident. The Safety Car came out, the competitor changed to new tyres, and could catch up. The Safety Car left for a final lap, and the competitor passed and won both the race and the championship.


You often have to have a little luck to win. The main things are talent and a lot of work, but in the end, a little luck can be the final touch of fate that you need.


The new world champion sure is worth it.

Cleaning

Sometimes, you need to clean your home. We cleaned our home today. It feels better when it is clean. Life is good.
