I am sure glad last week is last week!

It seems as though anything that can go wrong, went wrong.

The brightest point of the week was learning that a truck repair came in two hundred dollars below the estimate.

The funniest thing of the week was the electronic control module that my friend K.O. let me borrow for the little wildman's truck needed some programing changes we didn't think of. The driver called me saying he wasn't going to drive a truck that would only run 56 miles an hour. I followed him thirty miles and he was running 73 to 75 miles per hour. Even though I told him his speedometer was wrong he never totally believed me.

Preparations are complete. We start planting tomorrow. I am thinking I may stay with Memama while we are planting. Bub and I talked yesterday about running the planter some serious hours. We could cut planting down to about six days.

I find myself really having difficulty going through this exercise.

I had Devon on a shredder earlier in the week, knocking down some volunteer wheat that had headed out. He had a hydraulic line break Wednesday afternoon and he had to shut down until I returned to the farm Thursday morning. When I drove up the tractor was standing in the middle of a pool of antifreeze. When I went to get the new line, I carried the radiator to the shop.

Friday night I got the radiator back. Bub, Devon and I got it all back together yesterday morning.

I even had Dillon on a tractor Tuesday and Wednesday.

On Wednesday I carried Krl to the doctor for a SSI disability assessment. About December or January this appointment was made. Krl said lots of x-rays, flexibility and mobility tests. The doctor wanted to see how many jumping jacks Krl could do. Can you imagine someone coming in to a doctor's office on a cane and the doctor asking them to do jumping jacks. Krl said the doctor all but accused her of being anorexic bulimic. By the way, she weighed in at a whopping 91 pounds.

Taking today off. The calm before the storm.

Have a day!

FATHER, rest me well, rest me quickly. Bless our efforts. To YOU be the glory!
