Grrrrr…..

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen – actually I don’t even know if there are any dudes who read this – so if there are – I will apologise in advance for the total and blatant man bashing sequence that is about to begin – I will also apologise to any of Hub’s friends or family should they ever read this but I feel it important to get this off my chest.

All bashing that is done will of course be retracted as everyone knows how much I love my Hub – he is an amazing person, a wonderful step father, warm and caring and funny as all hell – but tonight – he just aggravated the CRAP out of me.

I am cranky – I will admit it – my stomach is upset and I am incredibly stressed out at work right now. The holidays are looming and they are stressful as well. I’m tired – tired and cranky and well just….you know?

I have a question – why oh why are there so many men in power? – Ladies – please don’t get your panties in a bunch but it simply baffles me!!! – Men run countries (for the most part) and companies and banks and…and…and…yet they cannot remember to plug in the electric fence that also has the plug for the horses trough heater?? That means me uncoiling 40 feet of hose in sub zero temps. Kittens…not my responsibility – we agreed – he who gets home earlier picks up the slack and makes it a little easier for she.

Don’t get me wrong – I love the little fur balls BUT with two prancing ponies with hay, feed and cleaning the barn – in sub zero temps – now running to feed and water four crazy kittens whilst uncoiling 50 (ya its now 50) feet of frozen hose while snot runs freely from my nose, hands so cold I cannot feel my fingers and ice blocks for feet??? and then him asking me if I wanted help after I was done?? needless to say I was a little heated. The 60 feet of hose (say something I dare you) is now freezing to my hands – I have snotsicles – spraying water everywhere and then having to coil back up ever so neatly the 70 feet (??) eeerrrggghhhh!!!

I get it – he did just come off an 18 hour shift, he does not like winter, the short days really grind on him. He suffers from seasonal depression and it is painful to watch him be so restless all the time. He is smart and he is so funny and such a kind and giving person and I would be lost were he not in my life. I love him dearly – I really do – he just needs to learn to stop pissing me off.

Here’s to Hub – he must be a wonderful person because he puts up with me and I ain’t no picnic!!!

Thank you all for letting me air my bitches.

I officially retract the negativity and the man bashing.

Side note – as of this coming Saturday December 20th – the days start getting longer by two minutes per day!!!
