Wednesday February 14th, Happy Valentines day!! I hope everybody enjoyed the day. It was another rainy day on the farm. All the animals are doing good.
Kassy and I had to get off the farm today for a Bio-metric Screening today. Our health insurance through my work requires us to get a yearly check up to be sure that we are not using nicotine and that we are healthy. They do offer nice incentives for getting the check done. It had to land on the Valentines Day. It wasn’t that big of a deal as we don’t really celebrate the holiday but we were going to make the most of it and go grocery shopping. We don’t take many trips off the farm but we try to make the most of them.
We left the kiddos with my parents so it would be a little easier. Earlier in the day I put air in our front tire, we have been needing new tires but I hadn’t got around to getting them. Today God decided that it was the day. On the way to have our Bio-metric Screening done, the tire went completely flat with no hope of fixing. So, we had to call my dad to bring a jack. We didn’t have one in the car. Needless to say, we never made it to the screening. The bad part is we had to fast the whole day and it was for nothing.
After we put the spare tire on, we went to start the van and it wouldn’t start. We had to get a boost. When we got back on the road, we made it to Walmart and decided to go ahead and get tires. We were starving so while they put tires on, we went over to the Mexican restaurant and got a bite to eat. It started out as a bad night but Kassy and I couldn’t help but laugh at the situation. The night turned into a well needed date night. God blessed us so much and I am thankful. My wife got dinner and 4 tires for Valentines Day. What did you or your spouse get?
Well, till next time. Get in the Dirt & Get Growing!!!
