You Might Really Be A Redneck Part 2

We are having a lot of work done in our yard, so my frugal husband decided to save us a little money and do some work himself. He climbed in his deer stand to cut down limbs from trees in our BACKYARD!!! At least he did have on his safety harness!!! Oh and the tractor is finally gone so maybe we are not the biggest rednecks in town. Although getting the tractor out of our back yard was an adventure. You can not have a tractor in your backyard and not expect your 4 year old and 2 year old to play on it. They loved it. So, when Chad went to start it and drive it to our front yard and put on the trailer it would not start. Thanks to our children playing with the lights and who knows what else. The battery was dead, so when a battery is dead what do you do??? Jump it. Then we had a tractor in our backyard hooked up to our Honda Accord also in our backyard. Guess what??? After 30 min the tractor still would not start, so off Chad goes to Scruggs for a new battery. They finally get the battery changed and the tractor loaded and on its way to a friends land for who knows how long (just glad it is out of my yard). You would think when they moved the tractor the Honda would have been moved as well, but sadly no! Our neighbors get home and call wondering why the Honda is in the middle of the backyard. Our children are playing around it like we have another new and exciting toy in the backyard!! Who wants to be our neighbor next???
