1000 Word Thursday

Cheaper Than Therapy



This picture was taken last year. It was so warm! Like 60 degrees! We were out on a frozen pond, in jackets, fishing! How strange. It was so warm that the ice was melting, but not cracking...I was a bit nervous. Vance and the kids all caught fish...mom? Nope, not one! But never fear...I brought a book:)

yikes, that picture makes me cringe just looking at it! jared and the boys like to go, but it makes me sooooo nervous. it made me so nervous once that i dreamed about bronson falling in and i couldn't get him and i can still see the picture in my head of him scratching below the ice trying to get out. so do you think you will ever get me out there? nope!!! great pic though:)

I wouldn't have gone out if it wasn't 60 degrees. Something about not being all bundles up and able to move quickly made me feel better though. Strange, I know!

Thanks for comments on my blog today Andrea. Looks like a good time is being had by all. Did the horse drown?

OMG I would be SO scared that i'd fall through the ice...i think that's one of my nightmares!

Unknown said...

Cool! I think I'd be scared to death.

April said...

Girl....I would have freaked out! Happy ATWT!

Shonya said...

LOL! That's how I fish, too--with a book! :)

I'm from Minnesota so I get this crazy fun! That way your kids can tease you and their uncle for ever!

How brave you were to be out on the ice when it was 60 degrees!
I'm glad they caught something. :->

If I had to ice fish 60 degrees would be the way I would do it.
