The Transfer from Wapakoneta

Hello everyone, I am back for another week with the transfer from Wapakoneta. This week has been remarkable better than the weeks prior. I have been able to settle in and get into the grove with my schedule. We have football liftings Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday while also having morning conditioning at 6 AM Friday mornings. It is very helpful to have all my football things done in the morning so that I can focus directly on my schoolwork and what I need to be able to have done for my classes later in the day.

             There were a few clumsy things that happened to me this week like I started the week off trying to do my laundry, but I could not get my clothes to dry in the dryer. It took it 3 cycles in 3 different dryers to finally get my clothes dry. At first, I thought I put to many clothes in the dryer but I saw the person right next to me put twice as much in as I did so I figured I would be okay. So, after 3 hours of waiting for my clothes to finally be dry enough that I could wear them, I took them back and hung them up and put them away in my closet. This has been another week with the transfer from Wapakoneta. How has your week gone so far?

The Transfer from Wapakoneta

Here we are in our last month of classes. After this month is over, we only have a few days in May to take our exams and then we are off on summer break. I will be spending my weeks leading up to these exams studying a lot so I can keep my grades up. We just started our second week of spring practices this week. Things are starting to come to me quicker as I am still learning all the tag words and signals but overall, it is going well. This week my family and I have been planning our vacation that we are taking this summer and needless to say I am ready for summer. How is everyone else’s life going?

 Here we are another week down and things are still going well. We just got back from a nice surprise four day weekend because of snow. I spent my days from last Wednesday night to Saturday afternoon pushing and plowing snow from the cab of our skid loader. I plowed anywhere from 20-25 driveways during each day while pushing big industrial lots and gas stations in the nighttime. This left little time for sleep. Each day I was awake and pushing snow every morning by 4 a.m. and not being done until 9-10 p.m. in the evening. While I knew we were going to get some snow, but I was not totally sure how much we would be getting, I used my Facebook marketing knowledge to let the people know in my surrounding area that I would be cleaning driveways out for $25 a driveway. This led to people telling other people and the word got out and I got super busy. I was able to make quite a bit of money over this three day time period and help people of the community out. Did anyone else do anything o...

Here we are in our second to last week of classes and let me tell you the senioritis is coming back. My classes are starting to wind way down. Last week I only had class Monday and Tuesday because my classes got cancelled for the rest of the week. This made for really easy week sort of. When I say sort of, I mean I had to go home and help on the farm. We had some gorgeous days last week and the weekend. We started to get into the fields to start side dressing end rows with anhydrous. We apply the rest of the anhydrous when the crop has emerged from the ground because it is more effective. The reason we do the end rows before it is planted is because we do not want to run over as much corn. We also spread hog manure on our field that we were going to plant our hay crop on. We then planted that field after we finished spreading. We planted till about 12 a.m. until we ran out of seed. I will say that it was a relief that we ran out of seed, or we would have been planting all night long. T...
