Tráva po 14 dňoch / Grass After 14 Days





Pekne rastie nielen tráva, ale aj burina. Možno budeme onedlho kosiť :-)

+++

Nice and green, except grass weeds as well. May be we will cut it soon :-)









Aj na druhom konci záhrady už raší...

+++

On the other part of the garden it started to grow already...

Je orientácia dôležitá? / Is The Orientation Important?



Pri čítaní jednej múdrej knižky som sa dozvedela, teoreticky možný zdroj mojich menších a akceptovateľných problémov --- vraj by som mala mať trocha opačne otočenú posteľ.

Neviem či to pomôže a čo na tom bude pravdy, ale keďže v tomto štádiu je v rámci spálne možné presúvať veci krížom krážom, spravili sme včera pokus č. 1. Po prvej noci viem potvrdiť len toľko, že sa mi spalo výborne - ale to sa mi tu spí stále... no a uvidíme, čo to spraví so zvyškom. Mám ale letmý pocit, že by to mohlo pomôcť.

Proste - som západný typ, čo plne zodpovedá, tomu ako žijem a fungujem - a - zdá sa, že by to mohlo fungovať aj čo sa týka umiestnenia a funkčného využitia môjho domu.

While reading a wise book I found out the teoretically possible source of some of my less serious (and accepted) health problems --- it says my bed would have been turned on a different way.

I have no clue if it helps or not, but at this moment I can move and turn anything in my bedroom here or there at any moment in time. So we made a Try Nr. 1. After first night of a new arrangement I can only confirm I slept really well - but, honestly, I always sleep well here... let´s see if this try makes a difference. I have a light feeling it could help.

It´s easy - I am a "western" type, and this is fully in line with my life style and daily activities - even without a knowledge of my wise book content. Seems it might work in case of arrangement and functional use of my house as well.

Tráva po 10 dňoch / Grass After 10 Days

Stále sa zelená... :-)

+++

It is still getting green... :-)



Musím pochváliť Corku že po nej nelieta ale pekne ju stráži a pravidelne oňucháva :-)

+++

I have to praise Cora for keeping it untouched, protecting and smelling it regularly :-)



A tu sme o týždeň neskôr zasiali trávu č. 2. Možno to bude tiež taká turbo-tráva prvá.

+++

And here we seeded the grass nr. 2. There is a chance to have a similar type of turbo-grass as before.



No a kvietky sa pekne rozrástli.

+++

And flowers like the place as well.

+++

It gets green...

Premiestňovanie vecí na poličky už začalo :-)

+++

Thanks a lot to Erich and Zuzana for their help!
Replacement of the stuff is in the process already :-)

Tráva - prežije? / Grass - will it survive?

V polovici záhrady je už zasiata, otázkou zostáva, či prežije... hlásili ochladenie ale realita sa zdá byť iná. Dlhšie už čakať nechcem, takže idem dúfať, že sa záhrada zazelená (ale nie od buriny).
Zatiaľ sa na nej schádzajú piť a ochladzovať motýle.

+++

Half of the garden is done already, the question is - will it survive? The weather forecast says it would cool down a bit, but the reality seems to be different. As far as I cannot wait longer I hope my garden gets green soon (but not because of weeds).
At this moment butterflies come to drink and cool down here.

Čo sa tu dá raňajkovať? / What Can You Have For Breakfast Here?



Ktosi sa ma nedávno spýtal, čo takto na dedine je človek schopný raňajkovať. Celkom vtipná otázka, akoby dedina bola v inej galaxii :-) - odpoveď je: keďže život na dedine je v podstate rovnaký ako v meste, akurát je oveľa kľudnejší, raňajkovať sa tu dá všetko rovnako, ako v meste. Teda upresním - zloženie raňajok určite nezávisí od "miesta činu" ale od obsahu chladničky. Miesto činu ovplyvní viacmenej len priestorovú otázku - napríklad ako u nás, keďže za dobrého počasia raňajkujeme aj s Corkou na terase.

V Corkinom prípade sú raňajky obohatené o zvyšky jedla, ktoré už jesť nebudeme - ako napríklad dnes ráno, kedy ubudlo granuliek a pribudla kukurica a zvyšok koláča. Hádajte, v akom poradí to zmizlo :-) Tí, čo Corku poznáte, určite nemáte problém so správnou odpoveďou: najprv koláč, potom granulky a nakoniec kukurica s ktorou sa dá riadne vyhrať.

A pekný deň môže začať :-)

Few days ago someone asked me: what kind of a meal are you able to have for breakfast here, in the village? Quite funny question, seems like village = another galaxy :-) - the answer is: as far as village life is (in its basic meaning) almost the same as city life, it is just much more quiet, you can choose the content of your breakfast on the same way as in the city. I think - the content of your breakfast is not given by the "crime scene" but by the content of your fridge. Your location will influence only the place of having breakfast - like in our case - we enjoy our breakfast on the terrace with Cora, most of the time.

In Cora´s case breakfast is usually combined with the rest of our cooking activities - like this morning, she could enjoy less granules, a bit of cake and a sweet corn. Guess which was ate as first :-) Those who know Cora, have no problem to find the right answer: first was the cake, then granules and the last one was the sweet corn (good stuff to play with).

And a nice day may begin :-)

Slivka prežila / Plumb Survived

Volá sa Jojo a všetci sme zvedaví na jej chuť :-)

+++

Her name is Jojo and we all are curious about its taste :-)





Z tohto bude terasa / This Is For The Terrace

Tak trochu sa opäť postaráme Marekovi o kúsok práce (ktorá mimochodom šľachtí) a sebe o dobrý pocit z posedenia na terase a balkóne. Corka už materiál patrične stráži :-)

+++

Marek will get some new job from us - and we will have a bit better feeling while enjoying quiet days or evenings on the terrace or balcony. Cora makes her part of the job already - plays a security dog.
