Getting Stuck

Yesterday morning I found myself to be catching up on some much procrastinated homework.  I was in deep thoughts writing a paper when Logan comes in the house and says I need your help...I got stuck.  Ugh--ok.  So this time I didn't have my fashion boots to wear with my sweats, so I put on my cowgirl boots and went outside.  (Thats a realll cute combination if you haven't tried it--sweats and cowgirl boots!!)  We drive over to the hay yard and here is a pickup hooked to a flatbed that was frozen and stuck to the ground.  So Logan backs his pickup up to the other pickup and tries to pull it out--doesn't work.  So I stand out in the hay yard while Logan goes to get a tractor.  He comes back, hooks it up and gets it pulled out.  I am in the pickup that is being pulled and I see that we have to go up thru the ditch to get out. (where it is packed with snow--not plowed out!!)  So Logan is pulling me, and according to Logan I turned the steering wheel and I shouldn't have touched it so I made us even more stuck. --HAHA!--  I am sitting in the pickup laughing because all I can see is Logan getting madder and madder as I made the pickup get stuck! (Thats because this city girl has never been pulled out of a ditch before!)  So Logan gets out of the tractor and comes over to the pickup and opens the door.  I get lectured because I turned the steering wheel the wrong way and blah blah.  At the end of the lecture I said, hmm sorry--my bad--and then the door shut..I think I made him more mad! :) Logan pulls the pickup the other direction and I make sure NOT to touch the steering wheel and lookie there..we are out of the ditch.

Farm Girl Tip # 11: If you are ever being pulled out of a ditch, DO NOT--i repeat--DO NOT touch the steering wheel!!

(There was supposed to be a picture here, but Logan dismantled the "rig" before I could snap one!!)
