I never forecast what and when will be born.

I never change my coat when calving or lambing starts

That old coat is 12 years old - paint and blood covered.

Not one pocket will hold anything.

The zipper is broken and there are only three buttons left that actually work when I use the loops to do up the coat.

Ripped from front to back and back to front - you can see the lining no matter what side of me you are standing on.

Wife says it stinks and threatens to burn it.

It is THE coat that I wear when new life is being born on the place.

Truthfully I am terified of breaking in a new coat.

The other thing is - I do not know why - I always have to touch the door post on the old barn before I step inside. Habit or superstition?

If you'd like just buy a new coat and send it my way.I'd break it in for ya. :D :D :D

Better to touch the door post with your hand , then touching the top of the door frame with your forehead. :eek:

Standing beside you I would be called "vertically challenged".

As for the coat - well, I figure to start breaking one in a few years from now.
