Be patient with the process. It is slow and frustrating but does eventually come to a conclusion. Try to keep positive thoughts and keep yourself busy and the time will go quickly.

As far as becoming a farmer's wife, I would suggest you get use to rising early in the morning and working long hard days. Farmers in America are hard workers with long hours. Just be prepared to assist him in every way and learn a lot about the process. The rewards of farming can be both monetary and soul satisfying, but it is a hard life.

Having just spent the last three months trying to develop a sleep pattern that includes waking at 4 am and then napping whenever possible inbetween I say AMEN.

It will be tough but I can't wait to be John the farm is just a bonus :).

Good luck to you in your journey.

I'm jealous....I always wanted to live on a farm.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip
