Well this week has been especially busy. Tuesday night I went to a tobacco meeting with a free meal, and then wednesday night I went to a crop insurance meeting with a free meal. Tonight I am going to a baskeball game, and will get a free meal if I ride with my parents.
The worst news that I got since my last blog post is that I owe the fedearal government over 16000 dollars. I should have spent more money last year beyond paying off my truck and buying a house. Mabye in 2010 I will buy a newer farm truck and buy some more farm equipment. I might as well spend it on myself if the government is going to take it away.
I also really want to branch out of what we are doing here on our farm. Tobacco is going to be out of a market in my lifetime, and all the thinking that has to go into grain crops is a bit much. The quaker college is having some niche market meeting here in a couple of weeks and I want to go to it to get some ideas about what we can expand into. I want to be a farmer, I just don't think I can make a living with all the ground we have now and the crops we have now.
Well I need to get going, my busy body self has returned from winter break.
