Making Hay

Monday morning I made decision.  It is what a boss does, at least he is suppose to do this.  I made the decision to mow hay.  Very little chance of rain the last time I had checked and I have no idea when that was.  You know, one thing you can't trust is the weather man.  Poor guy.  So, Mr. weather man says 20% chance of rain, we mow hay.  By Tuesday morning there is 60% chance of rain.  Now is when the dilemma beings.  Rain, we need it.  How to pray?  We need rain yet we have hay on the ground.  We WANT it to rain.  Yet we DON'T want it to rain.   So, we assume it will rain.  We ted the hay several times and by 4:30 in the afternoon we start baling.  The sun is shining brightly much to our delight.  Finally about 7:00 we decide it really isn't dry enough and we need to wait.  Thirty minutes later I see this very wide, dark, ominous cloud looming on the western horizon.  At 8:30 it begins to rain.  It is now 9:15 and it is still raining.  Apparently I missed this one.  I messed up the decision.  But, we needed the rain worse then we needed the hay.  

A Brief Jaunt Back To Blogging?

For some unknown reason I actually checked this blog this morning.  I haven't looked at it in months.  While glancing over a few of the posts I got this uncontrollable desire to post something.  Not that anyone will see it.  After all, if one doesn't ever post why would one keep checking back?  So, perhaps I will begin posting occasionally.  There are things about blogs that are much nicer than book face.  (I did that on purpose) one being the room or ability to type for as long as one wants.  Plus, I know that it will not clutter up someones wall or drive any one mad.  So, I see the clock has ticked past 7 and I am now late for work which is a bad thing when your the boss.  So, until next time...  If there is a next time...
