I had a yr when a load of hay did a number on me....but, subsided. Just used some otc sinus meds and figured just a new kid on the block thing. Could have been the hay was sprayed? I'll never know. No issues since or now. Maybe you have something like that. 🤷🙂


It's dark! They are harvesting a 12 acre field of cotton next to me!😲. Started about 5:30, lotta lights and noise....yep, combines. I'm sure he appreciates the nice mow job I did all along my side of the field a week ago. 👍😁. 12 foot wide swath of 3" grass between my fence and his cotton.

They finished up about 9:30 last night. Looks like 6 or 7 rolls out there. Equipment still there. I suspect they'll get the stalks cut down soon. They're like big hay rounds, all wrapped in pink plastic. 😁. Processors will get them picked up in a day or two. There's a process plant about 5 miles out....about 4 acres of big pink rolls.

Up early, couldn't sleep....coffee seems especially good this morning. Didn't make any yesterday, may be enhancing my enjoyment. I'll take it! Had pulled pork BBQ for breakfast, while packaging about 8# I had cooked yesterday, for freezer. Tasty!!

Switched out equipment attachments on tractor late yesterday, finishing at dusk -- big job....but, ready to start working with it this morning, which is nice! Always a time eater for me to do switchouts. Everything is heavy and tight. I'll try to get to anything needing this piece before I off it. 🙃. Didn't help that DS had piled objects too close to what I needed...meaning I had to move a crapload of ladders, wood, windows, first! Geesh. At least weather is good and I'm home for a few weeks, almost every day! Can rearrange order of some of my list of "to dos". Gotta get diesel today. 🤔.

Tractor therapy today!

Yesterday I worked in the garden. The ragweed stalks are 12’ tall and well rooted, I have to wait for a hard frost to kill the darn things. I pulled 6 mule loads of them and pulled 2 mule loads of vines off the fence. Still more to go but it sure looks a lot better now. Then I got out my battery operated chain saw and cut up some pine branches and dragged them to the burn pile.

That’s the first real day’s work I’ve done since having Covid in September. I quit at 2:30, tired.

This morning I go to court to talk to judge for probating the will. I already made a new will to cover everything until I buy a new place. But that is further down the road.

Drinking first cup of coffee, it’s going to be a beautiful day.

I've reached the point where I would very much like to be done with it...
Well I have good news for you! When you get so big that you feel like a bloated dead hog on a hot sunny day, YOU AIN’T THERE YET!
Now when you start feeling like a beached whale, yup, YOU ARE GETTING CLOSE!
