A Night Not Fit For Man Nor Beast.
Sunny, 64/44, Fair to Fair. A little more rain last night which is great. The pastures keep looking better and better. Next week I'm getting with our Ag extension agent to see how he would suggest I manage the goats better. I'm worried as I get more and more goats, I'll need to do some things to help maintain their healthOther than that, not much happening. I help out the high school basketball team this time of the year, and with daylight savings time ending, most of the major chores have to wait for the weekend.
I absolutely dread this time of the year. Well actually, 12 of these times of the year. The warning signs are all around as things show up in our bathroom that we won’t see for three weeks at a time. The other thing about this time is the cat (who’s male) really starts to get annoying……..along with, according to Kathy, the cat’s owner’s husband. All I know is I won’t be sleeping well for a PERIOD of time.
Take last night for example:
8:30pm – In bed
8:32pm – In la-la land
8:52 pm- I hear “Are you awake??...... Hey, are you awake???....Hey…..” Then come the most dreaded words known to man…… “You forgot to say goodnight….”. and so begins our one sided conversation
9:22pm- “Good night dear…” “Good night honey”
9:24pm- ahhhh.. laa laa land again…..
11:32pm –
Kathy- “I wish this cat would quit bugging me”
Brad – “unnhhhh”
11:33pm –
Brad- “EEYYYOUCHHHHH” (Kathy has just thrown the cat on Brad’s face…..claws first…
Kathy- “Keep that cat on your side”
12:10 am- I’m in peaceful bliss again
2:12 am- WHACCKKK (Kathy hits Brad in the face)
Brad- “What was that for”
Kathy- “Oh, I thought you were the cat”
2:14 am – WHAACCKKK (Kathy hits Brad in the face…)
Brad- “Stop it”
Kathy- “Well that cat keeps making clawing noises on the sheets, It’s driving me crazy”
Brad- “Well, I’m not feeling to good about it myself”
2:42 am-
Kathy- “Brad, your just going to have to get rid of that cat, its bugging me to death”
Brad- “Can I flush it down the toilet?”
Kathy – “No, just put it outside”
3:12am- ahhhhhhh sweet slumber again….
4:22am- RRRRRIIIIINNNNGGGGGGGGGG (alarm clock)
Brad- “unnhh”
5:12am
Brad- “ Goodbye honey, see you tonight”
Kathy- (Looking cute all snuggled up, which was the only thing that saved her)“Call me about 6:15, I feel like sleeping in this morning”
That is what last night was all about. Three more days before the feminine products go back into hibernation for another 22-31 days. Then life will get back to normal and I can start talking about goats again.
Oh oh, I should have woken Kathy up 10 minutes ago; I’m dead for sure now!!!

You cracked me up with this post. Currently we are enacting our own version every night. But in ours the wife is pregnant and gets up three times each night to pee. The husband sends the cat sailing off the bed at least once. The wife insists on having a body pillow in bed right between them and loudly reminds the husband to stay on his own side and stop snoring. Add to this a two year old with an ear infection and you have the making of a miserable night's sleep. Happy slumbering!
