Stuck with the swather 6 times today.

Furrow. If it's that wet as much as you all day then at some point you need to be prepared for it.

Freewheat, glad to hear you're getting er done. Talked to a friend in MBs interlake who said rice tires would have really helped. They depend on them.

Hobby, you last post was a very good one. Turn a high stress and frustrating time into a learning one.

If I may add to it, I would suggest that everyone share their thoughts of frustration and how that can lead to accidents or worse.

And finally, I would also tell them "you know it could be worse, it will take time but we'll get er"

I used to get pretty wound up to get er done but I learned that beyond my farm gate nobody cares. Its just farming, i am really not that important in the grand scheme of things. I do not produce things that society cherishes. Im not drilling for oil, selling shiny new vehicles, or 90 inch Tvs. So, I do the best I can and It gets done. i am never first but I am never last.
When things go sideways, then left of sideways, and the stress climbs on me, the Annie Lennox cover tune of Neil Young song "its only castles burning" creeps into my head. When I start humming that tune its time to stop and take a break or there will be a meltdown! It think that tune reminds me it could always be worse.
