I have the day off from work today, and it's beautiful outside, makes me want summer to be here so I can be out on the lake. I think that if I could choose to do one thing for the rest of my life, it would be laying in the sun out on the lake.....Heaven. That is until I remember that there are fish swimming around with me. For those of you that don't know...besides flying, fish are one of my biggest fears. Why you ask? I really don't know...most fears are irrational I think. But the thought of some slimy creature just swimming up next to me and taking a big bite out of my toe....not the most enchanting of thoughts. It's actually more common than you think, I've read a few stories of fish biting people. Word to the wise, look out for the Muskies...they are the meanest of the underwater creatures that lurk in lakes. Eventually I get over it and can spend hours swimming in the lake. If you just give me a few minutes to sit on the side of the boat and psych myself up (which my Dad never lets me do, but I think he learned his lesson many years back when not letting me have my time, resulted in one "ripping" catastrophy, which ended in me bawling, my sister crying, and my brand new suit ruined)...but that's a story for another time! Watch out White Bear Lake, I won't be fish food this Summer!
P.S. The picture below...precisely why swimming with the fish terrifies me...please find me one person that would like to be swimming and this thing brushes up next to them.
Anyways, I don't know how I got on the tanget of fish! Now onto the rest of my day...a few errands, maybe taking Tuck for a walk with my brother...aww the many relaxing possibilities. I have to enjoy it now because in 2 weeks my wedding season starts and I will be working far too much!

Tucker looks so cute! I remember those days when Jayda was a pup and getting up many times during the night for potty time! Hope all is well! Love you!
