It's raining, raining, raining...

People are often asking me if I'm getting depressed with that long dark season we're having here. No, actually I'm not. A dark season is just a period between two half a year long polar day without darkness. Dark season is ok as long we're having snow. But there is one thing which makes me to feel low. That's a mild period in winter, doesn't matter if that's in dark or light time.

We have been having almost +5 degrees Celcius and it's raining. Everything is icy and that little snow what we were having is disappearing. I don't actually mind that my shoes are totally soaking wet but it's really irritating to be walking on the slippery roads even though I'm having spikes on my shoes. I don't see anything good to have warm weather in the middle of winter!

  2. Kiitos kommentistasi Wanhassa Mummulassa!
    Olen yrittänyt sanakirjoista löytää suomennosta sanalle "nattsnakk", mutten ole löytänyt. Arvelisin sen olevan jotain "yökukkuja" tai sinne päin. Miten lähelle arvasin?

  3. "å snakke" on puhua tai jutella ja niinpä nattsnakk ois yöjuttuja tai jotain sinnepäin. Eli kauas ei mee "yökukkujasta", sillä silloinhan niitä yöjuttuja kirjotellaan :)
