a bit of this and that

2/2/2013

 
So what has been going on today ... Well, First I worked.  Then I spoke with the Gentleman who is going to take Faith and Libby home.  He will be here tomorrow and we will have them sleeved.  That means that the cows will have a arm with a long glove on it check them to see if they are pregnant.  
    Also I got word that Lot met "Katie O Spaghetti O" from Knittinonthefly.... I hear there are pictures but "vtknitboy" says his phone was dead so Katie is suppose to have the pictures.... I did get to see a few pics of Lots trip so far.... he ate Thai food for the first time.

I hope he is having a great time with Chris and Tonya ...

By the way JEN the Wolf Luver needs to email me an address still for that wonderful fiber....
So on to the rest of my day ... Dealing with a tractor with a flat ... It might not be like you think so I am going to share.  First off tractors have big tires... Those tires have fluid in them.  When the fluid starts to leak then you will have a flat sooner or later.

Big tires require big tools ...

But you can't take if off before you block it up ... a 2 ton jack and cinder blocks do the job

Then Dad worked to crack the nuts ... Tomorrow we will use the flatbed trailer to get the tire to town and get it fixed....

And so this post will have a bit of cute to it ... Check this out ...
