Rain? Here’s what we woke up to:

(This used to be a maternity hospital; now a private retirement home.)

(The 1000-year-old Cathedral, significantly extended and turned from Catholic to Lutheran over the years.)

(The arch on top is a bridge between the bishop’s house and the Cathedral. You don’t expect the guy to go outside and brave the Danish weather just to go to work! The sign on the left says, “Cycling isn’t permitted.” Obviously.)
Beautiful pics. But then I don't have to brave the snow. So it is easy for me to appreciate it.

Good morning all. A bluet-it has started checking out our nest box :)

Last year one slept in it all summer and treated it like a bachelor pad. We hope for a family moving in this year :D

Oh. That is awesome. You get to watch. Reality TV compliments of mother nature. Good morning Linda.

Good Afternoon roommates. This morning was a little hectic. But it has calmed down a little bit. I am tired today. I need to start going to bed earlier. Problem is I always get hooked on reading posts here and replying and then before I know it is 23.00 which for me is too late. Oh well. I will plod through the day and probably go to sleep at 23.00 again tonight. [emoji6]

Crikey, that's early evening for me.

I have another lesson in 35 minutes.:(

Creatures of habit here. We tend to turn in around 10.45 pm here especially when JoesDad has to get up for work at 6am like today. Last night we went to bed at 10pm because we were tired.

Good afternoonish all.

Our bluet-it is definitely thinking about nesting. It brings bits of hay in periodically... And then takes another bit out so there's no progress at all. I think we may have a clueless bird :D

If on holiday i can sleep in and handle it better but for the work week I cannot. Besides I am out the house at 7am during the week. I know it is not 4.30am but it is early for me. I have also learned the hard way. If I don't get enough sleep and I start getting 5 or 6hours sleep a night for a long time I start getting anxiety attacks and depression etc. I am not one of those people who can get by on little sleep unfortunately.[emoji22] [emoji22]

Shame. Maybe it is just fussy. Its trying out the various pieces of hay to see what works in the space it has. Obviously a designer bird.
