Plans…….
today i woke up at 5:30 to be in a redfish tourneyment. we didn’t start fishing until 8:00. that’s not a good start. i caught a few, but no keepers. my father-in-law came out some time around noon. he parked 30 yards from me and within 1/2 hour landed a 21 inch red. (he wasn’t fishing the tourney) i got home just in time for my fantasy basketball draft. i like my team, we’ll see how the season plays out. then i ate chicken. afterwards me, my wife, and marvin went on a date to see “Dan In Real Life”. i thought it was cool (kinda a chick flick). at the end he said something like….we like to ask our kids what their plans are in life. what we should say is, “be ready for surprises. prepare for your plans to change”.
i thought that was a great line. i’m not saying don’t think about the future, but don’t loose sleep if you don’t know what you’re gonna do about something. i don’t think i can say there is one aspect of my life that i expected 7 years ago. not one. but i couldn’t have asked for better.
