Spring Cabin Fever

My five housemates are at their sanity limit.  They may actually be on insanity overload.  It’s been a long winter for them, with many changes.  I am  here all day to referee their minor feuds, let them in/out and entertain them with constant change.

Yet, they persist in doing things to irritate the crap out of me

The cats attack the corners of the rugs turning them up so I trip — is this Stalag 13 and are they trying to tunnel out?

The dogs strew toys everywhere.   Their definition of “their toys” now include horse brushes, saddle pads, and my slippers.

Just when things seem calm and peaceful, someone twitches and a giant cat fight erupts for no apparent reason.  They are cranky, attacking each other without provocation.  Often I awake in the middle of the night to find my bed has become a battle-ground.

Trash cans are randomly tipped over and the contents strewn across the room.

Shedding and intense scratching episodes ensue leaving tumbleweeds of hair rolling across the newly vacuumed floors.

Spring can not come fast enough.
