Addition to "You know you're a country gal if . . .

I always laugh at the feed store guys, because they're all going "oh, let me load that feed for you, ma'am", to which I reply "who do you think has to unload it when I get it home?"
 
You know you are a country gal when you get pulled over by a cop who asked for your license and registration and you pull out several strands of nice fresh cut Bermuda hay while extracting said items from your pocket. Then the cops panics, pulls you out of your dually, handcuffs you, and initiates a search only to find a cattle prod, emasculator, twitch, spurs, various ropes, worn packets of white powder, several pairs of well used gloves. Other cops arrive giving you the 'look' as they document their finds.

Thank God my husband arrived. As senior officer, he is escorted to me, his wife, and blinks back his laughter. To the chagrin of the other officers he opens my handcuffs and sets me free.

"She's a country gal," he told them. "She's been baling hay. That's hay in her pockets. And she's my wife."

Faces turned red and those 'looks' changed dramatically as I fired up the dually and drove away.
 
Im small 5ft 2 and 120 lbs so I get that at the feed store all the time. Forgot to say that I am 51 years old too. So guess they figure this little old lady cant handle 50 lb bags of feed til they see me chuck one over my shoulder. My hubby does this to me too. He forget I'm one tough old bird.

When you can stack 200 bales of hay in an hour without breaking a sweat.

When you go to the barn to feed in granny jammies and muck boots.

When you try to explain to the doctor your son needs more physical therapy because he still has a hitch in his gait from breaking his fetlock and he is still lame in that leg.

When walking 150 foot to the house to pee is too far and the bush next to the shed you are working on is a lot closer.

Also guilty of mowing barefoot and been asking for a tractor for years. I also call my truck the Mutt truck cause it has parts off 3 different trucks. It has 2 different color seats, and the body is black, white, and primer gray, the interior is also 3 different colors. But it runs and drives and I LOVE it. The mechanic thought I was crazy when I told him to take out the nice bucket seats and replace them with the bench seat from my broke down brown truck.

I love being a country girl!!
 
When you throw on Rubber boots with out socks and and then you get blisters on your feet while milking/doing the morning chores you just take off you boots and go bare footed!
