Karlie Neumiller – Neumiller Harvesting
Yes…we’re playing the waiting game! The last few days, we have been trying to make the best of sitting and waiting (patiently) for the wheat to dry.
We did try it. All we found out was…we get to sit and wait a few more days.
I did end up at the walk-in clinic, due to dehydration. I kept telling the guys to make sure they drink, drink, drink. Then, I woke up in the middle of the night so sick. Went into the clinic the next day to find out I was very dehydrated. Guess I should have taken my own advise! So, everyone make sure you keep hydrated!
Sitting in the camper with two little ones sometimes becomes too much. So, we have been making the best of these days. Swimming at the campground, having water balloon fights, and riding a horse. We had our nephew come one day to go to the indoor water park. The next day, we headed to Oklahoma City as a family. We got to spend an amazingly fun day at the zoo.
Now, let’s dry up, wheat! I am so ready to run combine!!
