Cultivating

ad day on the tractor. I am going to be the laughing stock of the village if anyone sees the field I cultivated today. I got stuck in the mud. As one side of the tractor listed dangerously and kept sinking, it wouldn't go straight until I hit more solid ground. In the middle of the field, it was like a giant sinkhole. So there is all this dizzy random crazy lines and not even plowed, just big deep tractor ruts all over the center of the field. It looks like I went nuts or something. This new tractor is so small it has no power to handle anything but fair weather farming. The guy in a couple fields over had a great big tractor and even he was struggling but he had the power to keep going. It is so embarrassing. We plant the wheat next week and needed to cultivate before it rains this weekend.
