To Do , Health is not going to allow it ,At least for NOW . Forgive Me to unload my burden. I was Real bad off from flu getting in My lungs in December. still catching my breath . I created all of these projects .But Now They seem to snowball and overwhelm Me .. It could just be my tooth ache medication antibiotics beating the heck out of Me . My stomach is not in agreement with it , My legs and feet Always ache from neurothapy caused by chemotherapy poisoning from 5 yrs ago . at least cancer has stayed away . If the kids would come over and play farmer like they used to all this would have purpose .Some of it I got to give me purpose when I was bad sick . JUST got a lot to chew thru right Now . My wife goes in for serious back surgery April 28th.I drive a school bus that keeps me young And I am running for reelection .The primary is May 4 . Should I survive That I will be unopposed come fall . . Those of You who have been laid up awhile will understand all that thinking .Thinking about keeping a third , loading a third for scrap , and auctioning the other third. Been thinking of letting my brother row crop my Home farm of just 24 acres for this year . He Does The other farms . But i would hate it if my cows got in the crop just once ,We all Know that could happen No matter how good the fences are . . I have 12 new heifers calving Now . I could sell a third of them and i would not miss them . . No one ever gave me anything but a opportunity, and I ran with it , I own 240 acres on 4 places. I have 5 Massey combines ,over 20 saleable tractors , 5 round balers and square balers each. About 10 hay rakes and mowers and haybines each . At least 10 discs, 5 planters and drills . 5 trucks ,at least 20 wagon gears boxes Beds and gravity flows. Like I said a third ought to be scrapped . I think It is time to unload and come back with fresh stuff. I should make most My money back . but never get paid for all my sweat I put in It All .And I fear It might hurt Me , The heartbreak of seeing it go at any price . I wont sell any lands , Just talking of letting go of most the rolling stock , And some animals to lighten My Load ,.. Most You guys are near my Age That Could give Me sound advice . Up until 6 yrs ago i Row cropped all of my cropable 130 acres and made all my hay on another 100 acres. I did most my repairs . It aches Me all over Just doing the simple chores . About the only thing I am good for is driving and telling others what needs to be done and how to do it .
