4:30am - Wake up. Not sure why. Start thinking of all the projects I want to work on. Think till 5.

5:30am - Shower took, coffee made. 27 degrees. Temp low, but spirits high.

6:00am - Go outside.

6:03am - Go back inside.

6:05am - Check weather. Hang out on TBN.

6:30am - Little boy wakes up. Pigs n a blanket & chocolate milk. Play dinosaurs & tiger, his rules.

7:00am - Brother shows up to check feeder. Talk.

7:30am - Am I ever gonna get started?

8:00am - Fresh cup of coffee. Head outside. 32 degrees. Temp rising, spirits moderate.

8:05am
Tractor tire low. Plug in air compressor. Weird sound. Air compressor needs oil. Locate oil, add.

8:15am - Air compressor did not need oil. Sprayed excess all over carport.

8:30am - Clean up mess. Drag air hose to tractor. 4 feet short. Idea: move tractor 4 feet closer.

8:45am - Jehovah's Witnesses show up.

9:00am - Back at it. Start tractor. Correction: attempt to start tractor. Battery is drained from cold temps.

9:15am - Pull truck up to tractor. Find jumper cables. Found. Realize they're broken.

9:30am - Find other set of jumper cables. Good ones.

9:45am - Hook up cables. Correction: attempt to hook up. Loader is preventing hood from being raised. Try to be a contortionist, unsuccessful.

About those trickle charges on tractors that set for a while.......I believe they are a good idea.. I have solar ones on each of mine as there is no AC power in their barns.

Someone once said: "If it has **** or wheels, you are going to have trouble with it!"

The best plan is no plan.

I rarely have a plan.
