Gone Fishing

At last count I have about fifty projects that have to be done months ago. I have the post and rails up on a fence extension, several conversion kits for recessed lights, weather stripping to be installed, need to get a storage building - which I have to assemble - and the list goes on and on. It was my plan today to build a gate for the fence and go buy all the pickets. However, this morning, my special needs granddaughter showed up and needed some repairs on her bicycle. Nuff said.

Then, this afternoon, she came back. She wanted to go fishing. I did put her off for a short time with a promise that we would go soon. Then, it was stop and make a trip to the bait shop. And, then off to a private dock where she proceeded to beat her granddad at fishing. I never got a bite. Granddaughters are great. The next time I am overwhelmed, I hope she wants me to take her fishing again.

It’s good for the soul.
