It's the weekend!

Hello peoplez! 

So this week I've been working hard and getting dirty.

I had to clean out a combine head. And a Flex head.
So basically I have to twist my body among metal spokes to pull out stalks of Soy and corn. I took a chunk of skin off my arm doing it. 


Did you know it was possible to impale yourself with a stalk of soy?

Because I didn't. Til now. 
Needless to say, after I yanked out the tree branch and tidied up the blood, I put on gloves.

So to clean it out I have this air blower dealio thingy to blow the chaff and junk out. But before I used it I'd clean out the big stuff.

It didn't help much. 

No matter how much you pull out with your hands, the air blower finds more to cover you with. 
Every time I horked a loogie it was mud. It was awful. 
Next time Keith asks me to clean out a header I will say yes. BUT IT WILL HAVE A TINY BIT OF HESITATION.

That's right.

I'm a rebel.

Same thing when I have to wash the slates, except it's not chaff from soy; it's poop. And it gets on my eyelids. And everywhere else.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM yum. 

The good thing is though the after I blow out all the chaff and stuff I get to drive the skidsteer. :D :D



                                                    Because it's seriously so much fun to drive.

Anyways, that is all for now. Apparently I have stuff to do today. Also, We have snow!!! I am SO PLEASED. I love snow so much.

Cheerio people!

Hiyah guys!

So, I've started this new blog.
BECAUSE.
Talking about work all the time is apparently boring. So I've decided to write about it.

Because it's cool and I want to share it! And the great thing about it being a blog is that people can choose to read it or not.
Besides, it's more fun to type.

By the way, I'm foul and feisty at times, so I say words like poop. And piss.
So you don't have to stay if you don't like naughty words like those.
I mean, I'm a farmer. Born and raised. The barnyard is where I spend most of my days. Chilling, shoveling stuff like poo, running in the dirt when I finished my school...
A poor excuse, but one nonetheless.

Without further ado, I welcome you to my lessthenhumble blog.

You can visit my other blog if you like pictures and spam.
