My wife drives a tandem truck all fall--several hundred loads--this fall it was 7 weeks straight (perfect harvest weather--no rain breaks. She helps load a semiload of hogs at 4 AM every other week, and sometimes helps when new pigs arrive. She keeps 3 sets of business books for 3 sep corps we have, 2 of those are fairy large and complicated. All I do is sign what she puts in front of me as far as bookwork goes. In the spring she hauls seed and spraywater for about a month straight, then hauls post-emerge spray water in the early summer.
She runs in the house a few minutes before the rest of us and fixes meals for our family and the hired help. And she tells people she is not a good farmwife because she doesn't drive a tractor! If she would ever leave,this good-sized operation would faulter beyond belief!
I give her what she wants in the house but she has little time to enjoy it. God bless her!
