~ A woman, cranky because her husband was late coming home again, decided to leave a note saying, “I’ve had enough and I’ve left you. Don’t bother coming after me.” She then hid under the bed to wait for his reaction. After a short while the husband comes home and she could hear him in the kitchen before he came into the bedroom. She could see him walk towards the dresser and pick up the note. After a few minutes he wrote something on it before picking up the phone and calling someone. “She’s finally gone… yeah I know, it’s about time! I’m coming to see you. Put on that sexy French nightie. I love you and can’t wait to see you!” He hung up, grabbed his keys and left. She heard the car drive off as she came out from under the bed. Seething with rage and tears in her eyes she grabbed the note to see what he wrote. “I can see your feet. We are out of bread. Be back in five minutes.”

We had a large run today. Market was generally a little weaker today. Good alfalfa held its own. Lower quality grass and alfalfa struggled a bit and better quality grass was also a bit off. Stay tuned as we will be announcing the day for Hay Day soon!!

--A new supermarket opened near my house. It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you can hear the sound of thunder in the distance and smell fresh rain. When you approach the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and smell fresh hay. When you get to the eggs, you can hear chickens clucking and cackling, and you can smell the aroma of bacon and eggs. The veggie department features the smell of buttered corn. I don’t by toilet paper there anymore.
