TGMO (thank goodness monday is over)

  Actually for a Monday, it wasn't too bad.  Except the weather -- damn, I don't like running the furnace and a space heater in MAY.  50' and rain are not a good combination.  Hot coffee all day instead of iced coffee.

  My aching body has somewhat recovered from yesterday's bending and planting 600 hills of pumpkin and squash is a lotta bending. 

   I did accomplish one of the new year's resolution -- I submitted a bid thru the FSA for entry into the CRP program --- 11.3 acres for the next 15 years... it will come out of the program on 10/1/2025 --- 8 days before I retire and begin to draw my social security -- some of us baby boomers must wait for 65 to even begin to draw -- kinda stinks.  So, check that one off the list.  Oh yeah, a signing bonus and cost sharing on the seeding helps get it seeded....it's a wildlife bid -- so it's a mixture of grasses and wildflowers....should be fun to redevelope a part of the prairie that once covered this farm.

  Tomorrow is a new day and a new project list.
