We used to listen to local news, but the \u201clocal\u201d news is no longer local. I guess not everyone listens to the radio for news anymore. After the general news, a farm news show gives us the latest farm market news updates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">My husband keeps everything \u2013 because, you know, he may need it someday. And you know what? Many times he is right. And he knows right where it is. Imagine storing \u201cstuff\u201d for <a\/>over 45 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">I don\u2019t have a fancy house. In fact, I have lived in my 110-year-old house for the past 45 years. Yes, we added onto it once. My floors or furniture don\u2019t all match. My color decor does not coordinate. But it\u2019s functional. The words \u201cBut, you have a roof over your head\u201d are repeated in my head. I am satisfied.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">I still write checks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">I still use cash. And, yes, I will use pennies if needed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">I make homemade hot chocolate mix. I make make-from-scratch chocolate chip cookies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">I don\u2019t use the McDonalds app. I just want to order a cheeseburger. Plain and simple. And we keep the extra ketchup packet in case we need some for our next meal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Sometimes our \u201cdates\u201d are parts runs to another town. And we use the old farm truck for these parts runs. We may stop for a DQ and then stop and enjoy the scenery of cars driving by on the road as we enjoy our chocolate malts.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"674\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church.jpg?resize=1024%2C674&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"church\" class=\"wp-image-2788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C674&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?resize=600%2C395&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C198&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?resize=532%2C350&amp;ssl=1 532w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mnfarmliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Zion-church-scaled.jpg?resize=800%2C527&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Zion Lutheran Church<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">We go to church every Sunday morning. Some people might think this is old school. I would disagree, but rather to show we need God in our lives. Being a farmer is very stressful. There\u2019s always something going on . . .
