It’s funny, over the past five years I have noticed that every season has a motto….or a theme. At least when it comes to Boy #1. Over the past five years as a defense player there have been a multitude of learning opportunities for him that I hope he will carry with him into adulthood. […]
Lessons from a Team Manager
So if you’ve been kicking around here for a while, you know that I was a team manager last year for an Initiation level team. And by all accounts, I rocked it. Which is how I got it in my head that I could handle the other levels. I mean, what’s the difference? News flash: […]
Meal Plan Monday- May 13th
Welcome back to Meal Plan Monday! The month of travel and chaos continues. This week kicks off with yours truly being out of town until Tuesday night. I scheduled this after realizing that I haven’t been away from my husband and kids for more than 24 hours since last summer. Not that there’s anything wrong […]
Reasons I Need Caffeine: Ninth Edition
Y’all, I’m thinking I might need something stronger than caffeine this week. It’s been a weird one. We got home from our road trip late Sunday night. As I mentioned on Monday, I came home to a clean house and things were mostly under control. And I don’t know how exactly it happened, or really […]
Time Management Hack: A Busy Schedule
Time and time again when I mention that I have three boys in hockey, the comment that always comes back is this: “Wow, that’s busy” or some variation of the theme. Sometimes I just have to mention that I have three boys to get the comment. And it’s not offensive, there is no malice behind […]
Meal Plan Monday- May 6th
You know, sometimes I actually think I might have my ish together. We were away for the weekend as a family and normally that means we all return tired, over stimulated and completely over takeout food. This weekend was no different but after 9 hours on the road, we came home to a clean house […]
2018/19 Playoff Season Recap
Hang on to your hats, folks. We’re going to recap the 2018/19 playoff season today and it’s a weird, bumpy sort of ride. The season wrapped up the last week of March but thanks to a weird April, I’m going to do my best to recall exactly how the two weeks that were playoffs went […]
April Review: Spoiler, It Didn’t Go To Plan
As I mentioned last week, we had the end of season party for Boy #3’s team this past Saturday. It was so nice to see everyone again and just a little bittersweet to say goodbye, at least for now. But the reason I bring up the party again is that the common question from everyone […]
Meal Plan Monday- April 29th
I keep waiting for a Meal Plan Monday where I can talk about a “quiet” week. Or at least a “normal” week. I really shouldn’t because the calendar says that we wont have one of those coming until sometime in July. And even that weekend is earmarked for the cottage, weather depending. Maybe it’s time […]
Reasons I Need Caffeine: Eighth Edition
You would think that my off season would be more relaxed. I mean, there have definitely been years where I settled in to the lack of hockey schedule and coasted through our off season. Of course, that always makes me feel a little off. But eventually I switch into the slower gear and enjoy the […]
