    not so sure on the deep pockets. This year has not been financially friendly for me. The extreme heat we had killed several cows out right, and tanked production on the rest. And as far as Equipment breakdowns, I think we have a year for the record. Plum ridiculous how much broken equipment I have sitting around here right now. I have four tractors, and three of them are suffering physical infirmities. The three that I use the most I might add. 1 apparently suffered a catastrophic failure in the transmission area, you need to use a prybar to even get it in gear, and the PTO no longer functions at all. Chopper is in approximately 1,793 pieces in the shop currently, and I need it in about 2 weeks. And I’ve been working at wiring some more lights into the freestall barn in my spare time, which means that I’ve had a man lift sitting in there for several months now…. There are multiple other broken things sitting around here, but it gets too depressing to think about it too much. there are times that I wish I had spent a little more when I bought my equipment, and got something a little newer than some of the older pieces that were left here on the farm… Oh well, I’m healthy! And you can’t keep a good man down!
