    Just remember nomatter how bad it looks today life will go on. We have been through this before and family is most important at times like this. Keep the kids in mind, they take it worse because we make it sound like the world is ending.

      Good Advice Breadwinner. We, that are born and raised as farmers, don't realize that our city-raised spouses are worried sick about their fate when we complain about every dang little thing. We think nothing of it -for them its the end of the world. So next time my young sons lay the burden on their wives and families, I will remind them to read your post. Remember -Happy wife - Happy life.

          I think I would just piss people off. Peas STILL standing. Cereals... just some lodging in the lowest and richest soil areas and headlands with double seed and fertilizer. Other crops look good.

          Hard to complain about much considering what others are enduring!!!

          1.11 inches over the last 4 days

          2.03 inches over the last 7 days

          2.81 inches over the last 14 days....at least it never came all at once like some people got, AND MORE!!!

          So you can see how I can have an attitude of gratitude for my circumstances while others are suffering with their's, yeah I may have to "contend" with disease but at least the crop isn't completely ****ed!!!
          Sorry to hear about the situations that are kind of past the point of no return...

          Take care! I wonder if the Co's supplying the goods and services for the crop give a rat's ass after they've been paid? We carry such a heavy burden of risk all while one side tries to extract the feasibly most out of you while the other tries to pay you as little as possible for your efforts. All while Mother Nature can coddle you or kick you in the nuts... what a resilient bunch, a lot would retreat with their tail between their legs.

            It must be very dissappointing to see your crops under water and if I could wave my magic wand and take the water away, I would. We've been there before with 5 inches on August 15 and then frost right after. We still have a lot of fish to fry before we get it in the bin but we put on our rose coloured glasses and hope for the best. That's the name of the game we chose to play. 🍀
