The new and improved Good Morning thread!

My girls had the state marching band competition this morning so I went up to Muscatine for that. My wife says while we are here let's get groceries, ok that's fine, its only 11 and combining beans can wait a little, they are probably still to tough to start. Then an elderly neighbor, who still farms calls me while we are in hyvee and says he tried to start picking his beans and he plugged his combine and can I come help him. Yeah but it will be 12:30 before I'm home. So I get home, get his combine unplugged, then I get a picture sent to me from a landlord of my bull standing in his driveway along the road. Shit. So I drive 6 miles over there and no bull to be found. I drive up and down the road several times, along both sides of a small timber, check the neighbors pasture, no bull. I go find my cows in their pasture, no bull. Shit. I start driving back up out of the pasture and down the hill he comes. Got himself back in. Hell yes. So finally I go relieve my mother from the combine and pick for about an hour and my elderly neighbor calls again and says he plugged his again. By this time it's 530 and I'm really starting to get annoyed with this day. Right at this time my dad pulls back in with a semi and I tell him here come run this thing I have to go help Jim again. My dad has run this combine like three times in the last 2 years so I show him what to touch and what not to touch and go help my neighbor again. I get back to my combine about 7, then remember I haven't fed calves yet, go feed calves in the dark, go back to the combine, and I just got both trucks and grain carts filled. It's been a long day.
