Tax time is indeed annoying. It helps to have a real maritime accountant on our side. That guy is the best and it helps that he knows the industry and the ins and outs of it all. Before we had him, we just had a regular accountant that didn't do a good job at all. I think G is focused on getting the longline season started. He isn't a real talker so I have to make my best guesses on what's bugging him! Thank you! Tax time is indeed annoying. It helps to have a real maritime accountant on our side.

Lol. I keep thinking "It'll get easier", but it never does, everytime I drop him off I'm counting the days until he returns! The company he works for has tons of boats so he works 2 or 3 a year & has very little time home - most other guys around here work 1 and when the days are up, thats it for them for the year. But, we are very blessed that he and my father have always come home safe & thats what counts as I'm sure you know!

Thank you! Where is your bf scalloping out of? Such nice words. So you are well acquainted with the life and still in it. How do you feel about that? :-) Well, aren’t you the sweetest thing.

I can also relate to the little girl feeling, nothing was better then having Daddy surprise you by picking you up from school unexpected, even if he was still in his "smelly fish clothes"! Lol. Every homecoming is a true blessing.

It was hard posting everyday last week, but fun. I don't get that much computer time so thank goodness I could post from my iPhone a few times! That's exciting about getting the first 60 out! How many pots do you use? Lori, thanks for the awesome comment. It made me smile. Eva and Vincent did prove to be pretty good little buoy runners. Maybe we'll take our show on the road and head your direction to help next! :-) Ronnie, thank you! It was hard posting everyday last week, but fun.
