So I am 35, female, I know nothing about tractors or farming, and I happened upon this board while looking for any discussions on losing ambition, drive, desire, etc.
I work for a high tech company and do fairly well for myself, but the job is very stressful and there is a lot of politics and over the past 10 years, the job has just become very negative and nasty. I am not married, never been married, and have no kids. I feel the biological clock ticking, yet at the same time, I am not sure I want to deal with having children anytime soon. I have a boyfriend, but not sure how I feel about him (or if I am just depressed and wouldn't feel happy about anyone).
I struggle to get out of bed and I struggle to care about much of anything anymore. I used to have some drive, but it's all but gone. And it's hard for me not to feel like I've somehow wasted my life. I want a family, but at the same time, it's hard for me to deal with what I have now, I am not sure I will do both well (job and family).
The only thing that seems like a good idea to me on most days is to sleep. I don't have energy anymore. When I go to work, I only come home to sleep. That is the thing on my mind most of the time.
I guess it's nice to know that I am not the only person out there who struggles to find happiness or contentment - and maybe feels a little jaded and hardened by life.

For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
