Now I have walking pneumonia!!

I have got so much to do this fall and the PA at the walk in clinic said I would be out of circulation for 8-10 days.

Tore the slip clutch out of the old Ford mower and have parts coming Tuesday. Need to get 24 acres mowed and that is hard to do on a 22-hp Kioti with a 5' mower and very small rear tires. The old Ford is only a foot wider but three times as fast without beating you half to death.

Gotta babysit a six and a two and a half year old five days while parents gone on second honeymoon.

My retired life is getting me farther and farther behind. Wife is going to have to pick up the slack.

There are no victims, only volunteers.

My wife's father cut the grass, I think, on his Ford Jubilee. Afterward, he ha trouble breathing and thought it was caused by an alergy to the grass. It was Pneumonia and it killed him. It might be a good idea to check with the doctor before mowing.
I hope you're well soon. :)

Bottom line, the more land you have to take care of, the more the problem. 13 years ago, my wife and I could work non stop the whole day no issues. Now, if you can get a total of 6 hours work in one of weekends, good for you!

When my wife and I reitre, we hope to sell the house and land and move out west to a max 1,200 sq ft house will just a little land (under 2-5 acres) and next to some federal land.
