Looked out first thing this morning, not too bad I thought, but by the time I’d had a cup of tea a steady drizzle had set in, puddles everywhere. The soil temp is still only just 5°, and not even the lawns are growing. No field work today.
I love farming, but I've got a good son home from college so perhaps there is something else I could do.
What I’d want is a job where hard work paid, not as its own reward but in good hard cash – the harder I worked the more I would make. I’d want to be my own boss working all the hours I wanted to and none of the ones I didn't. And most of all I would want a job where the weather had no effect on my income.
Well I thought about it and realised that the only two avenues open to me were prostitution and pugilism, but looking in the mirror I fear my best street walking or street fighting days are behind me. Shall I have to stay farming or is there something else I could do?
