17 years ago today

[Shimano4Life]

I'm tying the knot in October. Through all the tournaments and days of fishing, my fiancee' has been extremely supportive -- not once has she ever rolled her eyes or complained. She even attends every weigh-in for the tournaments that my partner and I direct. She doesn't really like to fish (she likes to read while fishing), but her show of support makes me feel that I have found the right one!

Congrats on your 17 years wishniwasfishn!

I definetly married up myself, she has kept me from destroying myself many times, and like Jeanine, has always puts everyone else before herself. She has made me the person I am today, and I too will never be able to repay her. Everything is feeling better, my shoulder is still sore, but I have full movement now, so I dont think I did any permanent damage. Head is still sore, but thank god its as hard as it is.

Well Mr Wisin-I-Was,

"I was", doing okay. Then the wife saw your original post. For the passed 24 hours she's been all over my back asking me why I never say stuff like this publicly. She keeps asking "why don't you say nice stuff like that".

Well, I told here' "Honey, I don't talk like that. I show how I feel in different ways. For example, didn't I buy you a nice new porta potty 5 years ago so you'd be more comfortable when we went fishing? And, didn't I just get you one of the nicest Zebco 33 reels you've ever had? And what about that brand new set of Walmart cook pans I bought you, so you could start cooking instead of being so bored and watching TV?"

I'm glad it stopped raining today. I figure a couple days of sleeping in the shed will be okay and give some time for things to calm down. Just hate being out there in the rain, cause the Raccons take shelter there too.

Congrats Bob...17 years is a decent amount of time...I've been married for 25 years but in my situation it's taken me two marriages to accomplish this feat.

Good thread, good stories, some happy some heart felt, all in all a nice thread and congrats again Bob to you and the little lady!
