I Love Fundraisers

Today was a good day. I really did not accomplish much personally, but I was able to help raise over $300 for my hockey team! I wish more of my teammates would have come out or aided in the success of tonight. If they would have put forth more of an effort, we could have raised a little more $$$ for our team, but I really can't complain. It was so much fun watching everyone bowl and have a good. I learned that my bowling improves significantly after 2 beers, and my coach even jokingly suggested maybe drinking a couple before hockey once in awhile =) I seriously love my hockey team! I could not have asked for a better group of women to skate with. They literally are like a second family. I respect and often times seek the advice of my coach and other teammates for more than just hockey. If there is one thing I can suggest to you, it is to join a sports team, club or some kind of group. They are the friends that become family.

Besides our fundraiser tonight, we also had the celebration of one of my favorite teammates 5 month marker after having a kidney transplant. Debbie is one of my favorite people ever. She has such a kind sweet heart, and her view on life is just inspiring. She is truly a wonderful person. I had made her a sign tonight to signify her 5 month "birthday", and she absolutely loved it. I stole this picture from her!

SHHHHH....Don't Tell!


 On the Right side is my favorite Coach, Roger, behind him is his wife and my defensemen Lenore, Next to her is Ken, the husband to our Social Coordinator Cindy, Next is Jess who I alternate goalie with (She's the better net minder), last but not least is Debbie in the Blue, or Doctor Debbie, as we like to call her =)
I wish I had a picture to share of everyone on the team, but this plus two others who had to leave, were the only ones who made it out tonight. Doesn't matter if we win or lose, we always have a great time and seem to always find something to laugh at.

I absolutely LOVE putting together and organizing fundraisers!!!! If you ever need help, I'm Your Girl!

V-Day/ D-Day Time to Move On

Happy Valentine's day!

 I have yet to really experience Valentine's day with someone special, but that doesn't make me despise the day like most others. I think it is a great day to show love towards your special someone, and yes I agree you should treat your lover like it's  Valentine's every day, but that will NEVER HAPPEN!  So for one day a year, 95% of all couples have a day full of love and express a true desire for one another, is that such a bad thing? I don't think so, and I know some day, hopefully soon, I will get to experience my special Valentine's Day. But until then, I will happily wish every couple I know a Happy Valentine's Day full of love <3... End Rant =)

I really suck at keeping things updated, and that goes for this as well... I figured today would be a good day considering it's a holiday, and I think today I have finally accepted something that I have been finding very difficult to accept. I have come to realise that I may have had feelings for someone to find out it's too late.... I don't know if I truly have a love for him, or if it's just me always wanting what I know I can't have... Either way, it still hits me where it hurts. I'm glad to see him happy, and knowing that I can finally put an end to this back and forth game we have been playing with each other, is in a way a relief. I guess I know now that it is time to move on, and to start looking somewhere else for my special someone. It's finding that courage to actually move on I need a little help with. As I type this, it's as if I am finally accepting it and I am shedding the only tears I will let myself cry. He seems to be happy, so now it's my turn to wipe away my tears, lift my head up and find the same happiness. Time for me to grow up, and accept that we are friends and that is all it will be. I always seem to fall for the ones I can't have...

I'm ready to date, but dating scares me.... Lol I think I might be in trouble....
