BV,

If you aren't sitting enjoying the pond yet, then you won't ever sit and
enjoy it. I think you are like me, always got to be working on it for
relaxation. Sitting is like work.

I'm 29 years old and all of my friends are at that age where they are
pregnant and popping out babies left and right. My social life is
declining
but that's another story. Anyways all the moms don't work and they
always
tell me that they could never go back to work because their babies
change
daily and they'd be afraid to miss something. I understood because my
pond
changes daily too. Now my pond isn't in my back yard so I don't get to
watch
it every day like most one the group. It's at some property that I own
about
20 miles north of me. It's a rec pond that I built this year so I don't
have
to watch it as closely as an ornamental pond but I go there a few times
a
week and on weekends to work on the property and to check on the pond
and
make sure it's still there. It's great how new ponders come here and
post
their progress and we all sit here and read it and think back and
remember
how much in awe we were when we were digging our little hole in the
world.

Sam...I am still working on obeying the "STOP MESSING WITH THE DAMN POND"
mantra, so mine is always changing. I am not sure growing is the right
word,
but changing. *laugh* I hope and pray for the day, I can sit by it and
enjoy
it without thoughts like, "Hmmm, I think I'll change..."

BV.
