Chronicles Of A Family Farm
Let me tell you, we probably have you beat. Every one of these vehicles is stuck in our field. It all started with our old pickup in the very back yesterday afternoon, and went downhill from there. We had to quit for the night when it got too dark to work. Now it’s back to it, and it’s started to rain.
What do you call it when you are so exasperated by a situation you are laughing and crying about it at the same time? Craghter? Well, whatever it is, that’s what I’m doing.
Delirious? Praying the day gets better and your blessings are obvious. What a frustrating and trying circumstance.
I think delirious is probably the perfect word! Thank you so much Tina – we are really hoping to have everything out quickly. I’m about to head out to feed the baby goats – not much I can do in terms of brute force myself. I was wishing Yoda (from Star Wars) was real so that he could lift it all out like he did Luke Skywalker’s X-Wing! Ha! That’s about all I can contribute to the effort right now. 🙁
Yep. That sounds like a serious case of the Mondays. Hope you manage to get ’em out. Remember – when having a craghter fit, try for more laughter than tears!
Joyce – I am trying to laugh more than I cry – and yes it is a serious case, this! Ha! Thank you. 🙂
*laughs* and *HUGS* Craghter, gotta be. Only in farming – oh my! Good luck and prayers you’ll get ’em all out – looks like you’ll need it!!! 0_0
Thanks so much Sarah! Oh it’s been quite the day, and I’m sure we will tell this tale to our grandkids. It’s one of those situations that will become more humorous over time. Of course, my brother was making us laugh about it yesterday, when we were debating whether to call AAA – he pretended to call and said, “Yeah, we’ve got two pickup trucks and two tractors stuck in the mud, and I may be sinking myself…”
