Cameras alerted to motion, so she was watching me Wife "you just rolled the tractor" "No I didn't, I flopped it on its side, rops never touched the ground" Wife "%&>_/=#÷" (no idea what she said) "What?" Wife "you need to call ××××××, you don't need to be doing this alone" So, I called "The Old man" our best neighbor, he came down, made fun of me and pulled me out, with wife's truck
