I was so disappointed when I woke up this morning. Another 3 cm snow had fallen during the night and it was, and still is, snowing. It was once again down to -7 and windy.
I have just had enough right now.
The only good thing ist that I get to practice my winter driving but honestly I could be without that too.

My mummy has disappointed me this week
Twice, yes, twice has my mummy really disappointed me this week. Thursday morning I saw that she was packing a bag with cloths and things from the bathroom. Of cause I though I was coming with her. I danced, sang for her and my tail wagged for her. Guess how I felt when she got out some of my special treats and I realized that I wasn’t. I sat there and hoped she felt really bad for letting me stay home. It didn’t matter a thing that she had asked to of my favourite people to take me out during the day. Then came Friday morning …
When we were out before she has to leave me along I found a lovely frozen mouse. I managed to dig it out without mummy noticing. I think she was busy keeping an eye out for the dog that was running loose (lucky fellow). I walked nicely home with my catch and got all the way home before she noticed that I had something in my mouth. She made me drop it. With an Usch! she kicked it outside. I tried to show her that I wanted it back, I even looked for it when we went out for lunch. My lovely catch was gone.
Well, she has tried to make it up though. She has taken me for some nice walks. She has let me dig in the snow. I had so much fun when I was digging, using both my claws and teeth. With the result I guess using my teeth wasn’t a good thing. When mummy noticed that I was bleeding she decided that it was enough. Ok, she did fry a large batch of liver in butter and with some spices. I like liver even if I don’t understand why she has to fry it. It’s really nice as it is.
All in all I guess mummy starts tomorrow on zero

Spring is here – I think
For a few days it has been sunny and warm. The wind has been calm. The swans have arrived to the river. There is also another bird that normally turns up when spring is around the corner.
BUT
It has also been snowing – like right now. During the nights it’s cold and below zero.
Stella and I have started to explore the area around Kungsbäck. We don’t have many options as I don’t have a car. I know that our walk normally takes 2-2½ hour but as Stella and I like to walk neither of us will mind a longer walk – if it’s worth it. Last week I found a map and we started to try a road but it was getting dark so I decided against continuing it. Saturday we went along another road, a road that was a circle so that we would return to where we started. We walked and walk and came to bunch of houses. On my map there were not houses. We continue but my guts told me something where wrong. I stopped a man out walking his dogs. All he really could tell me was that I was outside the map (like I hadn’t figured that out) and that he didn’t know how I should walk to get where I wanted. He walked much faster that Stella and myself and quickly disappeared out of my sight as we started to walk back the same way. Guess who we met … the man with the dogs. I told Stella that he had probably gone the way we should have gone.
Today we did another try only we took another way to get there. The weather was wonderful and we started to walk along a very snowy road since not many cars had gone there. After a while we reached the road we walked on yesterday and there we met one of the nurses that work at one of the health care centres. He told us that we were on the right way and how to get where we were heading. He also told us about several other walkabouts in the area, some very long but he said they were worth it.
So I guess that we have some walking a head of us in the country side.

An update
I am in Germany!!!!! I have passed Wittstock. During this week I have walked 145 km. I haven’t done anything differently from what I normally do so I guess I do a lot of km every week. Instead I would say that I have had two days at work where I spent a lot of time on my butt.
However I have learned one thing this week and that is that I walk much more during the weekdays than during weekends. I didn’t know that. I always thought it was the other way around. Perhaps having a vacation around Easter isn’t such a good thing, competition vice that is.
Anyway here are the current results. Now have in mind that most update their result the morning after and it’s now Tuesday evening.
The team lay in 66th position with 81 km done. On the individual list I am currently in 46 th position.
All in all 2088 teams are participating meaning that 11539 people are walking around with a tiny box at their hip. So I really think we are doing good.

Eurovision song contest
Once up on a time there was only one program and I found it interesting. This show lost my attention when SVT decided that it was a show that was going to travel to several cities. That was a few years ago and they are still doing that. This year it has apparently been a duel between songs and from each program 2 songs have gone directly and 2 to a “second chance”. I haven’t seen one of them but I decided to watch the final yesterday as it would probably be a subject discussed at work tomorrow.
I do admit the quality and variation of songs were surprisingly good and I did enjoy it. (ouch that hurt to admit) The two top songs were also my favourite which is also a surprise. They were both different towards the others songs. So who won?
A very famous opera singer called Marlena Ernman! Her song was a combination of opera and pop. The bad news today is that she already has an appointment that day! What? Don’t they check things like this before competing?
Nr 2 said in the paper today that she was happy that she didn’t win since her record company is so small that if they had won they would have gone broke. Why bother to take part in the competition? I know, the publicity for the song and company.
