Ever wonder what farmers spend most of their time doing?
1. Talking about the weather, and how much rain their neighbors got....
2. Getting licked or kicked by livestock at very inopportune times....
3. Looking at the horizon, wondering if there's time to finish working in the field before it rains....
4. Having dogs and cats underfoot all of the time....
5. Checking fence continually, and trying to find that one calf that always gets out....
6. Planning for that holiday that never seems to come....
7. Having large animals poo on them. No, really, it happens....
8. Being on the wrong side of a cow that's peeing in a strong wind....
9. Spending time talking to the banker....
10. Reading all of the farm papers and magazines, and wondering why all the farms in the pictures look so much better than theirs....
