One more night and this hockeymom will be happy not to be in a hockey rink!

The title says it all! This week the boys started a hockey clinic that is 4 days a week and 6 weeks long. We have done this clinic for the last several years and usually the timing between the 2 boys' age groups worked out beautifully. Unfortunately, due to the amount of kids signing up for the clinic this year, the schedule for each of my boys was "messed up" as far as I am concerned - for now I am at a hockey rink from 4:30-9:30 (then you need to add on the commute time - 1.5 hours round trip...means that we are away from home for 6-6.5 hours Monday-Thursday). Yikes! Next week, DH will be able to help out...yahoo!

Nevertheless, tonight I hope to get some stitching done while at the rink, because I received the last Friendship Sampler RR to stitch on...once I am done stitching this and get in in the mail to it's home, I am all done except for waiting for mine to come home. Mine is with The Netherland girls and as soon as it crosses the pond, it shouldn't take too long to be finished up and sent home.

Now, I said I "hope" to get some stitching done - because for the first hour or so I am there, I hit the fitness room while Matthew (younger son) is on the ice and Robert (older son) sits and works on his homework. After working out, I do get to sit and relax...and I do take out my stitching...but I do tend to socialize - for us hockeymoms love to visit while at the rink!

Tonight is the last night of the clinic This Week...and then I can feel like my weekend will start (tomorrow I am I don't work). A 4 day weekend...here I come!

Well, thank you for visiting and hope you have a good day. Remember...Live, Love, Laugh and Stitch often!

Hi girl.
Did you get the email that says your RR is finally on the move. Hopefully, it will be across the pond soon and we can get it done and on to you!
