Yes, my Friday nights are going to be me and my reading light whenever possible. LOL
The house is quiet, has a strong scent of AXE deodorant and is quiet. Oh wait, I think I said that twice.
The boys went to the hockey game and I had the house to myself. Finished a book. (which happened to be a young adult book...but I was desperate and it was alright)
That could have been my last night off for awhile as the hockey season starts today for Retzky. C-man isn't too far behind.
The only thing that could have been better would have been to have DH home to share a nice glass of wine with. A girl can dream.....

Apple doesnt fall far from the tree
There may be a small part of me that is exactly like my father. A teeny tiny little bit.
When we woke up this morning, my thermostat read 15 degrees Celsius. The kids were whining and moping around because they could see their breath. boohoo.
ITS NOT OCTOBER.
Grab an extra sweater, a blanket or get your ass on the treadmill. Mama aint turning on the furnace.
I hear its supposed to warm up - eventually. Besides, I have hockey fees to pay.

Missing this
DH was missing harvest this year. And although I was never Miss Farmer, I am missing it too. The older I get the better farming was. I hope you are all safe out there. I also hope that it is close to being in the bin for the year.
Too early for resolutions?
I know harvest is coming to a close for some, but we don't want snow anytime soon. Right?
In the midst of my life crisis (refusing to call it a mid life crisis) I have been burying my head in the fridge and trying to come to some sort of conclusion about where my life should be headed. Havent we all?
The first step I have decided would be to BACK AWAY FROM THE DAMN FRIDGE.
The second, I have decided to try to get back to this blogging business as it helps me clear my thoughts.
And third, I have decided to be thankful for what I have.
Babysteps. uhm.
So, this is where we are at now. Retzky has worked hard all summer at trying to get into shape. He actually stuck to it without being nagged by his slightly-competitive parents. After all his work, he was rewarded by making the Bantam AA team here in town. After that, he also made a very painful decision to forego football for this year. This is the first time he chose to put one sport over another. It was a very hard decision for him, but he has had a very good pre-season so far (14 points in 3 games) so that makes it a little easier.
Chaser is still struggling with that dang collar bone injury. It would have been healed up, but unfortunately a little backyard tackle football set him back again. He has been told he made the AA Pee wee team, but final cuts are this weekend, so fingers crossed he isn't one of them. He has been able to practise - but no slapshots - which are his FAV....and no pre-season games. Its been just as hard on us old folks to listen to the pleas.
I have been on a job hunt. Which might have something to do with that midlife dealio...I actually turned one down this week. Nuts? Possibly. But I'm sure something bigger and better is just around that corner.
DH has been working out of town instead of driving which has its benefits. The gas attendants are missing him though...
That's where its at. I'
