The old truck has over 100k of very hard miles Today was bad form me. Everything was ok until I loaded the tractor. I don't know if it was the heat, or I am just getting old, at 74. It was a real hot day. I just ran out of energy. I had to sit in the shade after everything I did. A 10 minute job took a half hour, I thought I was having a heat stroke or something. I got to thinking after paying insurance on the old flat bed, and license. I only have around 10 or so disking jobs. I don't make that much anyway. It's more of keeping a family tradition going. Dad started the disking business in the 40's, along with farming. He did the disking until he was in his 80's. Sorry Dad I'm not going to make it as long as you did. I still have around 70 mowing jobs. Just mow and go, so much easier. The disking jobs were rocky fields anyway. Another thing, I need to buy two more 4x16x20 loading planks. Unless things change no more disking for me. Stan

Sounds to me like your heart as well and I know first hand as I have had 5 bypass surgery, 2 at 98% and other at above 90%. Don't delat a bit and get to the hospital for tests. I was having sharp pains between my shoulder blades as well and Dr sent me to back Dr that thought my heart problems was aurtheritis in spine and treating me for that ubtill I had the elephant setting on my chest. Went to hospital and operated on next day. No back pains since.
 
Get to the doctor! I got like that and was just amazed that old age had hit me so hard so suddenly. I had to take two breaks to mow the small yard I have. But it wasn't old age at all, it was the 3 blocked arteries! They can fix that for you.
