Good morning friends! I hope everyone had a nice weekend. It's still frigid here in St Louis, the weather says sunny but there's no damn sun at my work. 😠 The cold bites though all three layers I'm wearing. 🥶 Lucky for me I'm an inside employee, I feel sorry for those trying to work out in this shit.
Have a great Monday if that's possible! I'm going to my first adjustment with the cervical spine specialist today, I'm excited and apprehensive...
The actual temperature has dropped 17° from 50°F to 33° and with the 25mph winds it currently feels like 7°F(-14°C) in St Louis. 🥶 ❄️ It looks like that damn Arctic blast they've been calling for is here.
Hard to believe right now, but still …
I made a bold attempt to translate this some years ago and I come back to it every January. One of my favorite poems.
If you never heard of Majken Johansson’s writing (no wonder if you are not Swedish), do look her up. You are in for a treat.
Good morning friends, cronies and the rank and file, welcome to Monday! I'm at my desk, not quite bright-eyed and bushy-tailed but I'm here. 😜 The sunrise this morning from the parking lot was subdued and went well with my mood and coffee. ☕
Have a wonderful day! Let me know if you're seeing snow. ❄️ Apparently there are a few storms dumping the stuff around the country, here included.
We might see some actual accumulating snow in the St Louis area tonight. ❄️ I'm looking forward to watching the dogs play in the morning will sipping on a cup of coffee. ☕
October was an awful month for me, and November as always really sucks. Sun set at 4 pm today and it will only get darker + next week we expect severe frost.
But …
It is now only more or less 1 month until the winter solstice, Dec 22 at 4.27 am (UTC+1), and today my garden was prepared for winter.
This is what it looked like this morning … #saraswinter23/24
Talk about last minute to get rid of those leaves. Here’s the first snow at 8.30 am next morning, Nov.22:nd
The thermometer says +-0° & it’s 29 days, 20 min until the #winter solstice.
This afternoon we expect heavy downfall, rain or #snow & #stormy winds.
I’ll definitly stay inside.
Today, March 21 (or rather tonight) is the spring equinox 2023. I celebrate end of winter by starting this years count down of the 91 days until the summer solistice, documenting gardening and spring/pre summer progress.
This is what it looks like today … #sarasspringcount23
