Ok, so thought I'd post some pictures of what's been happening! Only problem is, I don't really know much about tractor parts or rebuilding one. Wyatt had a great week! He received a $100 check in the mail to use towards rebuilding his tractor from a wonderful, generous couple! Wyatt was so excited, he said, "mom, I think I'm getting spoiled!" Stephen is keeping track of the spending... so I don't have the exact numbers, but as of now, we are about $2,000 into it and haven't started putting it back together yet. Parts are hard to find since it's old (1974) and wasn't super mass produced... (the tractor was built in Japan and was only built for 4 - 5 years) and when we do find parts, they aren't cheap! We are trying to keep it as original as we can, but somethings we simply can't find. It means the world to us that folks are willing to help Wyatt with this project! We appreciate you! If you want to help Wyatt with his project, you can do

  The guys have been working on Wyatt's little B6000 Kubota tractor. In between finishing the house remodel, splitting firewood, and getting things ready for winter.... it goes a little at a time. The last couple months Wyatt (with his dad's help) has been taking off parts and peices, sanding them down, filling in holes, and repainting them. The wheels are finished and already put on the brand new tires! That new black rubber with the orange Kabota paint look sharp! The fenders, hood, hand rails and dash has all been painted. This week, they pulled the motor, and took off the front axle. Wyatt has been working at getting the grease off the motor.... that thing is filthy! They have ordered most of the decals, but are unable to purchase some, so we are trying to find someone who can scan the images and make a few decals that we can no longer purchase.  The goal is to rebuild the motor this winter and by summer have it all put back together with a shiny new paint job! Thanks for f

If Drugs Could Right a Poem.... " I destroy homes, tear families apart - take your children, and that's just the start. I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold - the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold. And if you need me, remember I'm easily found. I live all around you, in schools and in town. I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door. My power is awesome - try me you'll see. But if you do, you may never break free. Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul. When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie. You'll do what you have to, just to get high. The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms. You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad. When you see their tears, you should feel sad. But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised. I'll

Today has been hard for me.... there were alot of tears.  I don't like getting old, and I don't like that people I care about are dying... our friend and neighbor passed away this week.  Brooklyn_speaks  went home to be with Jesus today....  another friend of ours is losing his battle with ALS and got his feeding tube put in this month... I feel overwhelmed that for me, I know my place in that line will come sooner than later.  My death sentence makes me angry... I have kids that need me. I want to travel and see the world. I want to watch my kids grow up... to see my grandkids and great-grandkids. I want to enjoy retirement with my hubby. I want to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary together. I want to do something good with my life. I get tired of fighting with doctors, getting pricked with needles and the ever changing doses of medication. I'm tired of being exhausted every single day. I feel guilty for just about everything I do, and everything I don't do. I fee
