He's got no respect

Tinker the cat has no respect for the weekend whatsoever. He started calling loudly at 4:30 a.m. for me to get up and let him out. That is about the time I have been getting up on work days. He and Mickey are up and out. Bob, my hubby has no respect for the weekend. I have things to do and places to be and wanted to be at Aldi's about an hour ago. He is slowly getting around. We have major shopping to do, then I have to put it all away. We will be out past lunch as it stands now. So friends, I am out the door. My list is made. We will have milk and eggs and peanut butter. We will have fresh fruits and veggies. I am already tired. I will see you this afternoon.

It wears me out just thinking about getting out and about. I try to do all of my shopping online if possible but we cannot get groceries delivered where we live. I do shop online for them though and my husband goes and picks it up.

I have not tried that. I have friends that do that.

@stephcjh Well, I do not work sixteen hours a day, quite, but it is still a pain to have to put it away.

@GardenGerty It is convenient for us even though we cannot get it delivered. It keeps us from having to walk all over the store to find things, especially after working 16 hours per day. Sure don't want to have to have to go shopping on a day off either. Bad enough everything has to still be brought in and be put away.

I wonder what he will do when we "spring forward"? That is next week. He is telling me that the weather is nice and that we are wasting time sleeping.

I think that maybe your hubs and Mickey are related to JJ and The Scar.

I don't think he cares for weekend, just like my cats. Weekend, workday, who cares. Feed us!!!

I sure do hope you were able to get the shopping done in record time. As for the cat, maybe you can retrain them?

I need to go to the store for stuff to make chili tonight and my husband is still on his laptop on big farm. He loves that game.

My cats make sure I am awake when they get up, every time, no matter how many times.
