I frustrate myself

I had to go to barn because I left my jacket out there. I take an umbrella with me in case the cows get too pushy. Next to us the farmer has got their big sprinkler going and its shooting into our pasture right over our furthest barn where I need to go. So I run through the pasture to the barn. I'm jumping over cow patties while timing the position of the spray from the sprinkler so I dont get drenched. I still have to unhook the gate to get into the barn. I get my jacket and wait for the sprinkler to start back the other way. Eventually I make it back to the house. Once there I realize I had the umbrella in my hand the entire time and could have used it.
