    Gentleman,
      In 5 short days I leave for Montana and 7 days of fishing.  In the next 5 days I have the following to do;
    Tie flies, arrange equipment, pack, sort out my equipment, re-pack and work everyday but Labor day.  Throw in there that I have to attend a football game right after work tomorrow night(daughter is in the band), coach a soccer game Saturday at noon(daughter is starting striker on 7th/8th grade team, I’m the coach), go to work, sneak out of work and attend my son’s soccer game at 730pm, handle a court case, get my hair cut and somehow wrap up all of my reports and work the road for my one day a year durinig the holiday season.  Somehow I’m not quite looking forward to the next 5 days.  Plus add in that I’m missing 3 soccer games as a coach and I’m wondering what am I doing!!!!!!  Is anyone else dealing with these type of things prior to going on a so-called vacation?  I will not settle down until I step off the plane in Cody Wyoming.  It’s feels quite overwelming but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.  I just hope it’s not a train coming.
