If you've never lived on a farm, you may be unfamiliar with the slow, steady cadence of pastoral life. Days fall into a definitive rhythm, rolling by much the same as calendar pages flip by. Wake, chores, eat, chores, cook, clean, sleep. There's variation, sure, but you more or less know what's waiting for you out there whenever you flop out of bed, often before the sun climbs up over the flat line of Kansas horizon. Consistency is nice. It forms the backbone for a solid home life, but it does have a drawback: When something out of the ordinary happens, problems compound.
