I don’t like situations over which I have no control

I am off work today and it has been raining all morning so I can’t play with my new electric jembe. This is a little depressing considering that I spent so much on the gadget. I don’t like situations over which I have no control. How do farmers do it? Watching as nature changes, sometimes dealing one instantaneous big blows… I can’t do this. I may have to dethrone myself from the position of Farmer Number Two… And settle for Discontent Housewife Number One
