Yes; I'm an Idiot

It's been pouring rain and should have considered building an Ark. Instead, thinking the ground wasn't as saturated as it apparently was, I drove the car into the backyard to the hay barn to go feed the donkeys.
The car sat for a total of 2 minutes and when I tried to back up; well guess what!!! You'd have thought I had driven into a swamp. The car has been stuck since Thursday and since it has decided to continually pour, I can't get the car out until who knows when.
My first chance may not be until tomorrow to figure something out. I don't know if my neighbor has a mini tractor to do it and my friend might get stuck with his pickup trying and I sure can't afford a tow truck to do it.
Yes, I'm an idiot for 'assuming' that after 20 years of living on this property that a two-minute drive would have resulted in this nightmare.

I do idiotic things all the time although this was more do to weather circumstances than anything else. What do they say, "hindsight is 20/20?" There are so many times I say if I just would have done it this way.... If we could always have a do over for all those poor decisions! But I guess we would not build as much character would we, lol.

Boy have you got all that right @dgobucks226 . Even my normal sense of humor didn't stop the loud expletives that erupted from my mouth. I'm sure my neighbors 100 acres away heard me.

I swear @ThreeTeddies , the old saying, "If I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all" fits me to a T.

It's pretty bad 2-3 feet in front and back of the front tires @JudyEv . I may try some MDF (particle board) broken up and laid in the track and hope that works.
