One of those days:
On the tractor at 7:00 AM cutting hay while the dew is on it so it cuts easer.
Busted hitch pin on the cutter by 7:30.
Like to never got un hitched so I could ride the tractor home and leave the cutter in the field.
Called and ordered another pin next day air.
Loaded the welder in the pickup
Went to my shop, ground busted pin, and welded back together.
Went to hay field to reinstall pin.
Hit my hand with a 4-pound sledge while driving in repaired pin.
Went to ER, waited and hour and got three stitches.
Got back in the pickup to go finish repairing hay cutter.
In a hurry by now so I slung the welder out in the middle of the road pulling out of the drive.
Walked to the barn and got a chain to drag welder back up in the yard.
Finished fixing cutter.
Got back in tractor and went to hook up the cutter.
I got lucky as the cutter went on easy.
Finished cutting hay. It was still damp at 2:30 due to a cloudy day.
Fluffed hay that got rained on two days ago.
Raked hay.
Started rolling at 6:00 and as soon as I started to roll we got a very light shower.
Kept rolling as the shower only lasted 5 min.
Girlfriend drives up at 7:00 and starts to chew my butt for having my hand bandaged up and rolling hay.
Finished rolling at 7:45
Fed calves and bulls
Fixed a big strong drink
Got my butt chewed out for getting my stitches wet in the shower.
Made another bigger stronger drink.
And that is the last thing I remember till this morning.
Now today I can fluff the hay I cut yesterday if the due dries off.
