I have discovered something great. As you all know I have had a shoulder replacement and have been told it will take up to three months of therapy to get me back to where I can start farming, doing chores, and I hope, pain free.
I have a very good therapist, but I won't lie - it does hurt. But I have learned if I laugh a lot and joke, I can overcome. Just to give you an idea, picture two arm wrestlers: As the therapist pushes, I am pushing back because it hurts. Then I told him I was the arm wrestler champion when I was young and we both have a good laugh.
Laughter is such good medicine, when was the last time you had a good laugh?
Happy Valley Farm Trail will meet on Thursday, Jan. 15, 7 p.m., at the Happy Valley Community Center. Everyone is welcome to come. We will be discussing canning and preserving food.
We are in the final stages of getting our map out. In several weeks I will let you know where you can get the new ones. H.V. Farm Trail is having a pruning demonstration on Sunday, Feb. 1, 2 p.m., at Dragonfly Ranch located at 14852 Cloverdale Rd. Call 357-2730 for more information.
My articles will be short for a while. As my shoulder heals they will start to get longer. Don't forget to recycle, pray for our country and do a good deed every day and thanks to all who are praying for my quick recovery.
