Have a laugh. Anyway you can. For me, just looking in the mirror usually does it

Visit my grandchildren.

Go fly fishing.

Some day I'll be able to do both at once.

How old are they?

If they're super young, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing you still have some time right? :}

I know my siblings almost grew up without me and now that i've gone back and spent time with them, they're slowly unraveling to me and its really really nice, but sad at the same time, because im afraid to get too close to them.

About the fishing, do fishes catch on pretty quickly?
I know if I was a fish, i'd go and tell my buddies so they didn't get killed.
:S

I have 4-year old twins in Hawaii, an 18-month old grandaughter, and a grandson that is two weeks old. A fifth will be born in October. We haven't seen the twins much, but they are coming home for the summer.

As for fishing, well, the fish catch on quickly and are usually hard to catch. When you fly fish, the fish don't really get hurt. We always let them go after we catch them, so that we can come back and try to catch them another day. It's a wonderful sport, and I find it very therapeutic. : )

I love fishing also. Me, my son and my mom sometimes go for a fishing trip. Must admit though that we usually take the fishies home and eat them because we love fish... But the little ones we let go.

AWHH they're babiess :} That's so great!

And you have more buns in the oven!! lkjhfgkljsfg babies are such a joy. Like brand new gifts to the world.
OH so it seems like a precursor to fishing with live bait! That seems to be a great way to learn how to fish aside from actually just fishing with live bait :P

I may try it because where I live, practically everyone knows someone or already knows how to fish

Oh yeah, i'd definitely take a few home also if I fished, but id let the small ones go so they can finish more of their life :}

Its good to take kids with you, because they remember it as something they used to do with you, a good memory, and they'll probably share it with their children too.

True! Looking forward to taking some fishing trips this summer. It is so relaxing and calming to be by the sea. And I am really happy to see that my son enjoys to fish also. He grows up in a city, and my family lives on an island three hours away. So when we go there everything moves a lot slower, and it is quiet and lovely.

I really enjoy geocaching when the weather is decent. And I love to write and draw when I have an ounce of creativity.

I have a horse and he's excellent therapy for me when I can get out to see him. When I'm badly depressed I'm not able to and then he's a huge source of anxiety, stress and guilt. When I can't get to him I miss him horribly and feel grief at not seeing him as well as guilty for letting him down.

When he's gone I won't have another. But being around horses has always made me feel better. I might lease next time.
