No More Gucci Little Piggy

Out with the old.

In with the new.

Apparently I am in a fashion rut.

All about tires.



I'm quite glad that a tire went flat on the 8100 on wednesday, because I wasn't sure whether I needed new tires or not. A month from now, and I might have had 500 gallons of fertilizer on board...


I'm super excited about the new Martin RID gauge wheel tires we are putting on the planter. (Case IH planters have had gauge tires like these for many, many years. Here is another instance of Case IH leading and John Deere following.)
I like flat sprinkler tires in the spring because they keep me from looking like this.

The Clock Also Springs Forward

Yesterday evening I set my watch ahead so I would go home early.
On the way home I set the clock in my pick-up ahead.
I set my alarm extra early since it would be harder to wake up on time.
I woke up right away with my alarm.
I took my time getting ready--so luxurious with time to spare!
Then I put on my watch and realized the crucial flaw in my plan.

Nothing runs like a duck.




An unintended consequence of taking Anna to get parts this morning was the purchase of this officially licensed John Deere teething duck. I'm sure you can all imagine the events leading up to the purchase of this duck.

DLP.

You will all stop making fun of my television, please.


Thank you.
