Rain, rain go away, come back.....

What is it with the weather and the like they say global warming and it is as cold and as wet as ever,  I have booked summer once again this year for July 18Th, so if you have days booked off either side then change them now. After this date it is a downward spiral to winter again!

The other night I came home from work and as I was cooking for the mass horde Little h came up saying he wanted to play outside and doing anything to have an easy life while trying to get something done without the constant call of "Daaaaaadddddddddd, can I.....", I let him play out in the garden. It was only a light shower at the time so I put his coat on him and hood up and let him out, the fresh air would do him good. Two minutes later he was back saying he couldn't play on anything due to it being wet, so being a good parent that I am I gave him a towel and it kept him outside for a full thirty minutes trying to dry his slide and toys so he could play with them!

The cat is starting to piss me off now in the mornings, he will come into the bedroom at five, jump on the bed, walk up me and then start patting me on the face to get up and feed him or let him out. he is heading for my bad books again mighty quick!

  1. Wow, that's awesome! I have to force Em to go outside at all, lol.
    (we don't let the cat in our room at night for that reason!)

  2. Our cat is close to being barred as well now, but the wife wants the door open so she can hear the kids if they get up! The sofa is sounding a lot better for me!

  4. Well you ans'd my door question before I asked it, but how about a real cheapo baby monitor for your wife to listen to the kiddos?

  5. I hate cats and if one woke me up at five it the morning it would be the very last thing it would do.

  6. You need a spare pillow, something with a bit of heft.

  7. Keep one of those plant sprayers on your bedside table - you know the ones you put water in to give the plants a squirt?

    Simply spray the cat with water every time it pats your face and it will learn to stop doing it! Then hiss at it. The cat will get the idea.

  8. Kimmy scoped my suggestion...water spray, works every time. My only problem with it is, it wakes me up to soundly when I do it...then I can't get back to sleep...but, no cat.
