So true. I worked on an organic farm for three years until one day I carried too many pounds of potted tomatoes at once and threw my back out of whack. I could not walk. I crawled to the bathroom and back to my bed and that was it. I had to get a student studying massage therapy to come to the house to work on it, then physical therapy for a few months.
What with the injury and trying to keep the rooster from attacking me when I collected the chicken eggs- well- I had to give up my farming dream.
I'd like to include gardening in that quote!
ReplyDeleteLove this one, Mrs. E! Thanks for the shout out to the farmers (and their wives)!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the truth????
