Freewheat, hope the rain misses you and falls on us. Fingers crossed for you. You have friends here who care.

It's time to make some tough decisions that will put you and your family in a better place. Rent or sell some of your land, or sell out before you loss it all. You don't want this farm to destroy everything good and positive you have going in your life.

I woulda spent all winter combining that canola in a f'ing open cab and a skidoo suit if I had too. Excuses won't put it in the bin. Find some frickin duals from a wrecker, hire custom guy with tracked combine, line up a grain dryer do whatever it takes. Won't get my sympathy make a plan and get on it.

You have no clue. I suppose you had no snow this winter, money to burn, and more than one of you on your farm.

I am not looking for sympathy whatsoever. I have feelings, and I shared them. I am man enough to do that on here.

Money to burn is leaving a crop sitting out till now -20 is a fine time to combine snow goes right through.

Freewheat ignore biglentil, he has obviously never been through what you are going doing, i have, he is an idiot.

The stress of not seeding because of shit rains is one thing but it takes even less not to combine at any time.

Best of luck freewheat.

It's building character.

Although I have no idea what he's dealing with since I never had to leave crop out over winter and have to deal with it in spring. And we can always generally seed here....prairies versus parkland. I think understanding and mentorship would go further than criticism and judgement.

All too many times I hate it too but for different reasons, but those different reasons don't change the effects on the person.

Chin-up freewheat, this too shall pass. You've already begun to adjust your sails. Changing course may be better slow and steady than too fast. Less chance of sinking the ship when you have a well planned course.

Crap....should have thrown something in that last post about "negative waves", aye Captain!

Trying to say something "righteous and hopeful for a change".

I'm rootin' for you Freewheat.
Everyone has a down day. Just don't start stringing them together.

An upbeat attitude can really make a difference. A guy I knew would laugh at
everything that went wrong. After a while you would really wonder if he wasn't
a little crazy, but he made it through some really tough times.
