Cold Winter"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Winter is coming nearer. The mornings are getting darker and darker. I do not like dark mornings.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I do when I wake up is always to try to check how much I can see. If I can make out the shelf at the far wall. Basically whether I&#8217;ve gone blind during the night or not. That&#8217;s always the first thing on my mind. And the darker it is, the less I can see. I know rationally that it is simply because my nightvision is very bad, but it&#8217;s still hard not to start thinking that my eyesight has gotten worse overnight. So I prefer bright mornings.<\/p>\n<p>And then there is the cold of course. I may have mentioned it a time or two before. But it really does bother me, how hard on me it is now. A few years ago I loved the cold and always longed for winter. Now it&#8217;s not even winter yet and it&#8217;s barely below 10C, and I feel like I&#8217;m freezing. I like to open my windows in the morning to get fresh air in the apartment, but I don&#8217;t know how long I&#8217;ll be able to keep doing that. I feel like I&#8217;m turning to ice. It&#8217;s not even below 10 and I have to turn up the heat already. Now I know how Skye used to feel. She always complained about the cold. That was one thing we didn&#8217;t have in common. Not back then anyway.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to have to start wearing gloves and sweaters and scarves soon. Today I went to visit the goats and for the first time this season I really felt hindered by the weather. I went inside with the goats. Which turned out to be a good idea, because 10 minutes after I got there it started raining. I had hoped to wait out the rain with the goats, but it just kept raining and raining. So eventually I had to go out in it. Waiting for the bus in the rain. I was shivering cold, my fingers felt like popsicles. And it&#8217;s not even November. Oh dear.<\/p>\n<p>On a brighter note, I took pictures today. I can see from my photo album that  the last time I took pictures was in May 2009. So that&#8217;s a good while ago. I&#8217;m not going to get back into photography, though. It&#8217;s just too hard now. I can barely tell whether the pictures are blurry or not, whether it&#8217;s in focu. And all the work of resizing and cropping and uploading and coppermine administrating. It&#8217;s just too much work for something I can barely see anyway. But it was nice to try it out a little again. I do miss it at times. At least I can still make videos with some ease.<\/p>\n<p>The results are in:<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5483\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2010-present\/101020_magnethegrethehans_th.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nMagnethe, Grethe and Hans.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5482\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2010-present\/101020_grethe_th.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nGrethe.<\/p>\n<p><a HREF=\"http:\/\/plume.dk\/pics\/displayimage.php?pos=-5481\"><img WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=300 SRC=\"..\/pictures\/thumbs\/2010-present\/101020_hans_th.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nHans.<\/p>\n<p>I hope they get posted okay, it&#8217;s been so long since I posted pictures that I can barely remember how to do it all.<\/p>\n<p>Remember the good old days when every entry had 20 playground pictures?
