A stormy morning

torsdag 22. maj 2025
af Hanelie Sidhu

When my first alarm woke me up at 2:40, it was 15 m/s. It went up to 20,1 m/s at 4:00. It was a day to enjoy the comfortable bed and warm blanket a bit longer. But after I had woken up I could not fall into a deep sleep again, as the wind kept howling very loud outside and it started raining a bit. Nevertheless, I spent the whole stormy morning in bed. In the early afternoon, we cleaned the house and after, I took the lawn trimmer out of the bike shed. I needed to get a bit familiar with it first, Joseph and Emma helped me to get it started, then I went up to the lighthouse garden and trimmed the gras under the nets. The invasive beach rose, which is blooming quite beautiful now is also very good in spreading. I had discovered some cheeky young bushes that started to grow in the net lines. It is very difficult to stop the beach rose from spreading and to get rid of it, but for now, I trimmed it away – until next time.

I also did some data check and folded the freshly washed and dried bird bags, so some work was done on this slow day. Tomorrow looks better.
