We won our hockey game tonight 7-6 despite more drama. From the beginning they were singling us out and calling non penalties. I think our team is marked. We will not get a straight call form here on out. I got a little pissed and hit a guy tonight with my stick. Stupid, stupid. Our entire team is very freustrated,. I may only play one more game next week and skip the final two. It’s just not very fun anymore with the current mismanagement at the rink. It’s a joke.

Tim and I will be decorating for Christmas and putting up the tree, which I’m really looking forward to. I love all the holiday decor, lights and general festive ambiance that the holidays bring.

This is the time of year I’m most like my mom because all I want to do is decorate and bake cookies! We had a three story house growing up and every single floor was decked out in holiday gear. My mom also spent countless hours baking and making homemade candy. I’m not sure I’ve got her skills in that department, but it sure was fun to watch and provided for some fantastical memories of me sitting alongside mom on my bar stool “helping” her create various treats. The sugar cookies were the most fun for me. I absolutely loved rolling out the dough, finding just the right cookie cutter and then applying icing and sprinkles. We would decorate cookies for hours!  Ahhh the holidays…..  I just might need to get some recipes from mom!
