Fishing, Tomatoes, Dogs and Swimming Pools

School is out today! Promised Kharley I would take her shopping. The  Colby and Chelsey graduate tonite, Shelby graduates on Friday.. We are a proud Aunt and Uncle to these great kids.

My tomatoes are huge, the plants and the fruit! Waiting for them to ripen, my mouth is watering.
Keeper is digging up the world down here, dammit, I wish he would go home!
The swimming pool is ready and waiting for the kids..
Tutz and I have been keeping the catfish scared to death at Tawakoni.
We were asked to fish a private pond a few days  back, we thought why not we will give it a try.....OMG!!!
8 catfish averaged 12 lbs that is about 100 lbs of fish!!  So much fun, I laughed so hard, yes I peed myself again!! Tutz had CatZilla on her line and we had no dip net...She told me to help her.....
Everyone even she know I am of NO help, so I grab the 8lb test line she has on her rod and pull it next to the wooden pier........yes it cuts it like a knife.  CatZilla is laughing as I look at Tutz.  Which the saying is true, If Looks could Kill, I would be dead.  So then it is my turn to snag Monster Fish..sure enough he takes my bait and I jerk as hard as I ever have...cannot turn this Monster..I have a bruise on my belly from just hanging onto this rod, it is singing as the line goes out farther and farther, I look for help...it aint gonna happen.  So her I am wet drawers, spinning reel, running for the bank to drag Monster Fish in....It was all a sight to behold.
So my summer will be yard mowing and fighting off Monster Fish!!
Pam mentioned in her blog all the angels watching from heaven, I wonder how different things in my current world would be if those angels were still with us.  Sometimes I feel ashamed of all the times I have called on them to pull us out of the hell we are currently in, and then I wake the next morning and I thank them all for granting me another day.  I know this will pass with a little help from my friends and family.
Love to all...Nen
