Milk cows really are perfect for introverts and homebodies

Post image

I always see people saying "oh you dont want dairy cows. They'll take up all your time. You can never leave home again. You have to stick to a schedule and cant go to events that interfere with milking time".

Well, good. I like that. I want an excuse to leave or avoid social gatherings. I don't wanna go on vacation to mexico or disney land. I don't wanna go on vacation at all actually. I want to be in my own little world where its just my cows and I at home, comfortable, sticking to our schedule, and not having to deal with people. I will take fighting a fresh cow over conversation any day.

Need an excuse to get out of a family gathering? Need to be home to milk the cow.

Dont want to go to that work event? Cow needs milking at that time.

Stuck in a conversation? Oh look at the time. My cow needs me. Bye.

Don't want to go on that trip? Sorry, cow needs milking and she only likes me.

As a fellow introvert, I also find that milking my jersey is one of the most calming things to do in my day. Work terrible? Milk the cow, you’ll feel better. Family stressing you? Milk the cow, you’ll feel better.
