Just keep swimmin, swimmin

I love Finding Nemo....I could watch it 100 times.  Dory has a memory like mine, and she seems ridiculously happy.  I'll get there eventually.

Both DH and I forgot our anniversary last week.  Thank goodness!  I would hate it if he remembered and lavished me with presents.  (ok, just hate if he remembered and I didn't - I probably wouldn't hate the gifts).  We had a nice supper with some friends over.  It was the first time in a long time that we actually got to see each other on our actual date.  16 years.   Time flies when your having fun.

The boys are still busy with hockey.  This week we have hockey related dr's appointment for c-mans feet, work a canteen shift, two hockey practises, deliver catalogues (ongoing fundraiser), retzkys tournament and c-mans out of town swing. 

Thank goodness that DH has holidays as the tournament in Regina starts Thursday.  He gets that duty....I'll take the northern bus trip. 

So, were gonna keep swimming.  Keep that positive outlook.....and no "professional advice" from the parents.  No matter how right we are.

Here it goes again....

Tis the season to be jolly falalalalalalalala....at least that's how it feels with both sides of my family done their xmas shopping and talking about xmas parties.    WTH?  I haven't even sent out my wedding thank you's.  (Sorry, again, dad)

Its been a tad busy around here with hockey.  What will we ever do with ourselves when its all done?  I guess you'll have to stay tuned.

This weekend was 5 games in 3 days.  3 at home and 2 on the road.  Unfortunately for the boys they had some big BIG losses, and a big big win.  Retzky went 1-1, C-man went 1-2. 

I have turned over a new leaf, however, and I'm only looking at the positive.  The games were close in proximity and manageable (as DH was around).  The older boy had 5 points, and the younger one didn't have a lot of goals get around him.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.  Retzky tells me that this new positive outlook on hockey/athletics will only last a week.  I'm out to prove him wrong. 

Unfortunately the younger boy has started having some feet issues, so we have been researching, making doctor appointments and trying new and old remedies alike.  It could be a long season for him if we don't find a cure - so I'll keep you posted. 

oh yes...btw....I have been job hunting a little more seriously.  I have turned down one and been turned down a few more than that (hard on the ego, but I'll survive).  Something will come up - it always does. 

Welcome
