Saturday, November 23, 2024 – Bush Hogging Day

Hiya Darlin',
Slept in a little this morning after not getting to bed until late last night, didn't have any urgency to get up this morning so I laid in awhile. After chores and breakfast and few odd jobs, I finally headed over to Yvette's to check on my tractor and bush hog her pasture. Unfortunately, I soon discovered that the sheer pin was broken (I thought it had been replaced, but it hadn't), but fortunately there was a spare there, so once I searched youtube to find out how to do it, I replaced it. That wasted over 45 minutes. Then I noticed the exhaust stack was broken off and missing, and I couldn't find my logging chain, which I'm pretty sure I had bolted to the tractor so it wouldn't get lost. No idea what happened to it, though I'm absolutely certain I left it here with the tractor. The tractor didn't have a lot a fuel in it, so after about an hour, I had to take a half hour to go get more fuel, and had to search for the small fuel tank I had left, finally found that up by the house. One time I got stuck in a hole and wasted a bunch more time trying to dig it out, ended up having to bring my truck out to pull it out. Whew! I worked until after 5:00 and still had half the pasture to go, so my planned day off tomorrow isn't going to happen, darn it. Got back at sunset, fed the horses, and settled down for the evening. I've gotta have a day off soon, I just don't know when it will happen. Grrr! Anyway, I'm going to bed early tonight, hopefully! After a much needed shower! Good night, darlin'! Love you!
