ALMOST QUIT FARMING THE OTHER EVENING.. HERE IS A PICTURE OF MY FINGER AFTER I HIT IT WITH A CLAW HAMMER,AFTER TRYING TO REMOVE THE U JOINT FROM MY FERTILIZER SPREADER AFTER IT FLEW APART AFTER RUNNING OVER 6 OF MY PLANTS. AFTER GETTING ONLY HALF WAY DONE. THE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE OF MY NAIL IS WHERE I TOOK A NEEDLE, HEATED IT WHITE HOT WITH A LIGHTER, AND BURNT A HOLE IN IT TO LET THE PRESSURE OFF.I COULD FEEL MY HEART BEATING IN MY FINGER.. OH WELL THERE IS ALWAYS TOMORROW..

I TOOK A LEISURELY STROLL THROUGH MY SECRET PATCH (WHICH IS FULL OF SECRET WEAPONS) THE OTHER DAY AND LOW AND BEHOLD RIGHT NEXT TO ONE OF MY GAR GANT U WON PLANTS LAY THIS ALMOST PERFECT ARROW HEAD IT TAPED EXACTLY 2 INCHES LONG AND 13/16 OTT. COULD THIS BE A SIGN FROM OUR NATIVE AMERICAN ANCESTORS? I NEVER REALLY THOUGH ABOUT IT BUT BLKCLOUD DOES SOUND KINDA LIKE A INDIAN NAME.. IT COULD BE MY PATCH IS ON TOP OF A SACRED BURIAL GROUND AND THAT IS THE REASON FOR ALL MY BAD LUCK?? WHO KNOWS ONLY TIME WILL TELL.. MAYBE MY INDIAN CORN WILL DO WELL THOUGH..I GOT SEVERAL ROWS OF THAT PLANTED AS WELL
