There are some things in life I've always been pretty sure I'd never say or do - for instance - bungee jumping, are you kidding me - my little corner of hell; or, take one more scholastic math class; and/or, be concerned about farming and farming issues.
Now, two outta three remain true and intact. However, recently while talking to my Uncle Paul - Dad's brother - I heard myself say five words I didn't know my brain could string together..."how are the soybeans doing...??!!??". Then a couple of nights ago CJ, Amy, and I had an impromptu 'estate meeting' - and there the three of us are talking about the price that corn is selling for....the world was spinning upside down for that brief moment!!!
Since Dad died, life has given all of us some new "learning opportunities" - as we liked to say in the medical arena....translation - we don't know what the hell we're doing or really how to do it....but, this is what it is - and we WILL figure it out, and we WILL be successful!!! Call it tenacity, or stick-to-itiveness, or just plain old Ketner stubbornness!!!
CJ and Amy are neck deep in attorneys, surveyors, auctioneers....I'm available on a 'need to know' basis on all this - and for Amy to vent when she is ready to throttle Aileen (aka: Big Red) the estate attorney....she's very good at what she does - but SHE knows it!!!
So, just another lesson in life about - NEVER say NEVER!
