Don't know what's worse

A major breakdown or too much rain. At least with a breakdown you can go like 60 when it's fixed and catch up. Sitting here with the sun shining waiting for the mud to dry up as one of the most frustrating things in the world.

I just got the field cultivator over the other half of the only field where I have any corn planted at all. Still can't get down along a little bit of one side,but it's not something where I'll have to fill in a spot in the middle of the field. If seed wasn't so expensive,I'd have torn up the rest and replanted it. It's coming alright,but it was sod and the grass is coming on. Not to mention it being a little rough compared to what I just ran over. I'll have to make up part of a tank of Roundup to spray that half of the field now. Just one more time eating bunch of nonsense.

There's another 22 acre field on another 40 that I own that my uncle used to own. It's low in the south east corner. When he had it,he worked it as two ten acre fields east and west along the north half,a square ten acre field on the south west corner and then had that wet corner as a separate field. Another guy owned it for a while and took the fencerows out so he could work the whole thing north and south. If I can't get in that south end by Friday,I'm going to plant the north side east and west and get the low south side when I can. This is just getting to be more than I can stand.

All of my silage corn ground still has water standing,so no sense even getting all bent out of shape on that.

I got lucky and planted beans Sunday afternoon and yesterday got almost 1/2 done. Got 3/4" this morning. My beans planted May 23rd look like heck, poor stand, what's up looks like it's got either herbicide problems or my feeling that it's just too cold. The ground got really hard after they were planted so I'm hoping this rain will help. Otherwise when I get the rest of the beans planted the first time I'll decide whether to replant them. The corn here looks great albeit small for June 4th, but good stand nice color and thanks to our hills no ponding, everything runs off.

I'd rather have a break down I think. Can maybe switch to another tractor or tool. But then a break down costs $.

Id rather have the break down. If I can't get'er fiixed, I can call in a custom guy. Custom field drying..... whole new line of work, eh. Don't tell me , it is cal tile drainage.

I would rather wait on the weather cause there really is nothing you can do about it. Maybe add a little more tile for faster dry down in the long term.

A breakdown I always second guess thinking I should have done this or that to prevent it. The whole would of, could of, should of thing.
