sorry for the wait

well i haven't wrote in a very long time. and i'm sorry. life gets away from you some times, and you forget to just sit back and take some time to yourself. and trust me life has really gotten away from me lately, but things are getting better, much much better.

i've learned more around here, like the difference between hay and straw. i know silly me! and then there was the day i really got to find out about hay, when mark put me on the tractor that was hooked up to a set of rakes, and made me rake a feild of hay. now usually this is a pretty simple task, but to "save time" they have attached two rakes togather and at the end of each windrow i would have to pull a leaver up to pull the rakes in so that they rake the same area. and at the start of the next windrow i had to push the leaver down to pull the rakes back out, so that i was raking two windrows at the same time. smart idea, frustrating to do when the windrows don't always match up. but by the end of the feild i got the hang of it and even kinda liked it. which was a mistake to admit, because it then became my job... and i raked quite a few feilds.

and i guess since i did that soo well, or more likely because there was no one better around i was sat up in the tractor that was hooked to the square bailer. which was exciting, untill i learned how many leavers, switches, pully's and attachments. then i couldn't believe i had to aim the bail's of hay into the wagon!! but yet again it was much easier after the end of the feild came around. but i have been called apon doing this tak a few time too. so now all thats left to learn is the round bailer. and i'd rather not learn that. haha

but back to the real world, i am a few steps closer to living life normal again. or as close to normal as is comfortable! haha, but in a few days i will recive the results from my second biopsy, this one was taken during surgery. and once i get them back i will know if its all been removed for sure or not. i will however have to go ever 6 months for check up untill i get 3 clear reading in a row, which for some poeple takes a few years, but i'm hopful it will be sooner.
