man,this sucks

Just venting a little-just can't seem to find time to get out on the water...fished about 3 hours for catfish this year..thats it.Get about 1 day off every 2 weeks(I know,be glad I have a job)boat stll sitting at the farm and I have no clue where all my rods and tackle are.Kinda spread out in the basement and garage Doh

This is akward,but soon I'm going to beg a ride with one of you smithville boys before I burst:eek:

Just feeling down and overwhelmed this morning,oldest daughter has been in and out of the hospital for a month now,and burning the candle at both ends working,visiting her,and taking car of the 3 grandkids


never mind...I feel better now:cool:

Cook, best of luck with all you got goin on and you would be welcome anytime. I'm sure there are others with the same offer. Heck Alex and I can show ya how to get Skunked!DohThumbs Up

Sorry to hear about your daughter Cook. If you ever get down this way, you're welcome to fish with me.

Hang in there Cook. You're doing the right thing man. Someone will get you on the water, or I'll drive up there and do it.

what they said cook, hang in there buddy, thing's will get better, least you got your prioritie's straight.... there will be plenty time to fish my man!

Cook, I'm the guy with the goofy schedule and go over to Smithville during the week pretty regular. So far, Bill's right, you ain't missing much. Having said that, I know from personal experience, sometimes a guy just needs to get out and air things out a bit, regardless of whether they are biting!!!

Anytime you want to go, let me know and we'll make it happen!!! Good luck with your daughter and those younguns.

Here's my mantra, "Work to fish...fish to live...live to love"!!!

Thanks all,feels better just getting it off my chest..got them all off to school,took a shower and threw in a load of laundry,and headed off to work.
The womens elite 8 is across the street,and I'm catering a party for the ESPN crew today-don't have cable so won't know any of them,probably just the "behind the scene" guys,but at least its something different...get some flowers after work today for my daughter,its her birthday,and visit her for a spell-get home and get the kids,cook dinner,dry the laundry,check homework,get them off to bed...then start over 6 hours later.....

You're a great dad and a great grandpa! :) Hang in there!

Prayers sent up for your doughtier and you cook

You are a good man Cook, I'm sure your grand kids are proud of you.

Cook hang in there! You have to take care of your kids! I started last Monday on 7 days per week until at least September and its going to be at least 10 hours per day and closer to July 4th it will average 18 plus hours per day. Last year I had one week that I put in 3 - 30 hour straight shifts. It aint fun but a man has to keep a roof over his head.
