One sick child
Two missed alarms
Three sick cows
Four hours of sleep
Five loads of straw sitting in the yard yet when it starts to rain
Six hours to do chores, clean up and make it to the fair on time
Seven bottle calves to feed
Eight acres of third crop getting doused by the deluge
(On the bright side, this was last Sunday. Things have since improved, but I'm still not convinced our luck has changed.)
(The other good news is that, after a week in the shop, I finally have my computer back. The first time I checked email after getting it back, I saw that there were 37 new messages coming in, so I got up to go do dishes while they downloaded. Before I even made it to the door, the computer's you've-got-mail chime sounded. Zoikes! That was fast. Maybe if I took a week off to get upgraded I could work that fast when I came back, too!)
