Fishing with Noel!

Those that know me, will tell you that the last thing Vicky would choose to do is go fishing. The idea of simply sitting in a boat waiting for a fish to bite my hook seems like a total waste of time. Things to do, I always have things to do...things that have to be done, things that have piled up and things that I have wanted to do but have not had the spare time. We have a cabin on the lake tonight and tomorrow night. Pray for me! Quiet time doing nothing! Can Vicky do that?

Noel bought a fishing boat last weekend and he is really looking forward to rekindling an old hobby of his...fishing! I have only tried it once or twice and it bored me to tears. When Noel and I were dating (seven years - yikes), he and I spent all of the warm months on the water. He was a very experienced skier and Savannah and I loved learning even though we were never that great at it. We have a lake just minutes from home and he and Savannah would take the boat out in late afternoon then I would join them when I got off work at 4:00 p.m. (had great hours back then). When Savannah was older she had less time to join us and eventually we bought motorcycles and rode them for the next 7-8 years. I absolutely loved riding and actually biking was what God used to draw us back to Him. I sold my last bike about a year ago (Noel has one but it sits under the carport most of the time)...other things had taken the place of our riding time. The things of God have us very busy and when you work full time it is almost a necessity to stay at home on Saturdays to catch up on housework and preparing for the week ahead. Most Saturday afternooons, Noel and I drive out of town about 3o minutes to have an early supper but now with the new boat, it looks like we will be catching supper!

Well it's time to get off the computer and pack for the weekend...always things to do!

I forgot to mention, I took today off!!!!!
