Yesterday morning, I go out to start cutting hay and my tractor has a flat rear tire. About 2 hours and a lot of dollars later, the tire repair truck leaves and I take off for a field about a mile down the road.

I get home, get my neighbor to help me haul the TV in, and my wife says, “Guess what”. I’m thinking, NOW what’s broken??? She says, Reva called a few minutes ago”.

She asks, “what’s the matter.” “Nothing”, I say, but I’m thinking to myself – It could have been cancer – and it could have been you. Let’s all try to keep things in perspective around here… take a little time to laugh.
