early o'clock

I'm ill. Not as ill as I was, which is nice.

Still a bit ill, however I have dogs and chickens which require me being awake at stupid o'clock.

So I'm awake, typing this, which is supposed to help, how being awake at stupid o'clock helps I'm not sure. Even the chickens are hiding, which is unusual, ulrick is barking at the rain, not sure what he thinks the rain is, but he's not a fan of thunder and lightning, but then who is. I'm worried about bonfire night, not sure how he's going to do with fireworks, that'll be interesting.

He's still barking at the rain.I think he misses EMB, who is at the wedding where I should be. Such is life!
