Turkeygirl Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 So I have today off from custodial. I was hopingm aybe andy and I would go steelhead fishing, seeing that he has been off all week, and went fishing, and I helped him make egg sacks, but no! We have to get hay today for our horses, at 1:30pm which means go and load it then come back and unload which will take a few hours. My optional plan incase Andy was too lazy to go fishing, was to go hunting myself, but that probably won't happen with the hay. Arrgh, some vacation. I'll probably end up working Monday just because at least I have friends working custodial and that is more fun then sitting home being annoyed by Andy. and I've said this before but if some of you don't know, Andy isn't my real dad, we never knew our real dad. He is more of a family friend/not so good fatherly figure who at least is the reason why we have a house. But anyway, I know I sound like I'm complaining but I had to vent because obviously I am annoyed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbeck Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Re: My plans for today....busted Grew up hauling hay for horses, milking cows, tending the chickens. All I can tell you is hang in there. Looking back it gave me good work ethics, it also let me know that the only animals I wanted to deal with are the ones I'm hunting. Happy New Year.

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Re: My plans for today....busted Be thankful you have hay. With the drought going on right now, all I have to haul is dirt and rocks! BTW - Alfalfa square bails are $9.50 and the feed store expects them to go up to $12.00 with the next load. Round bails of unfertilized coastal bermuda are going for $60.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting up hay this time of year is not too bad, at least it is not nearly 100 degrees outside like it was when I put up about 200 square bales of mixed clover hay after I got off work back in the summer.

Turkeygirl Posted December 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Re: My plans for today....busted Well we loaded about 200 bales into the wagon, the farmer drove over, and we unloaded 200 bales into the barn,lol, ugh! We paid $1.75 a bale, which in the summer I think we paid $1.25 or $1.50 a bale but that was right off the wagon from being baled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
