Watching other people fish on youtube only goes so far.......I'm an angry elf

Chill out dude…..it’s called hunting season and weather has been great for it. Nobody stopping you from hitting the lake this weekend. Guaranteed to be the only fisherman out there. Prob a few Elmer fudds out, but those guys aren’t right in the head anyways.
Even when I was a pretty hardcore deer hunter, I was done with it by the end of January.

At this point, we have basically been couped up since Christmas. GomerJr spent the first several days of Jan in Childrens due to complications from a severe sinus infection that ended up requiring surgery, and then complications from that. Once he finally got [mostly] well, he AND our daughter ended up with a stomach bug and wer down another week. He was healthy this past week but went back to Children's yesterday to have the sinus stent removed and what was supposed to be outpatient ended up being an overnight stay and not certain we'll even come home today....

I was hoping for some normalcy this weekend for the first time in 6 weeks, but looks like that ain't happening. Everyone in this house needs some relief
