Welcome back to Meal Plan Monday, friends. I was going to skip it this week (for reasons I’ll explain momentarily) but 1) This series just got started and I don’t want to skip out the second week in, 2) I need to map out the meals this week more than ever and 3) May as […]
Meal Plan Monday- Week of April 1st
Another hockey season is in the books, folks. And what a season it was. I’m still processing things when it comes to hockey, but as I shift gears into “off season” mode, there’s some things that I implemented during the last few months that I want to keep doing. Meal Plan Monday came about in […]
Reasons I Need Caffeine: Seventh Edition
We are neck deep in the Februarys people. The weather this week has driven the point home. We’ve had freezing cold temperatures. Then there was a thaw that turned the entire city into puddles. This was followed up with a flash freeze that turned the puddles into skating rinks, including the sidewalks. It’s a minor […]
A Really Good Hockey Practice
Confession: Hockey practice is often not my most favorite of things. Not because I don’t see the value, but because it often gets repetitive. And if it’s repetitive for me, it’s repetitive for my children. And when they get bored, they act like they have never been out in public before. They are sitting on […]
January Review
Y’all! I was doing so well. My goals for 2019 were made, and I was meeting those goals. I was getting into a new routine with the brand new calendar year. This normally does not ever happen. I have the best of intention but lack follow through. But this year was different. Or so I […]
Ten Rules of Hockey Tournament Weekends
Woah, Nelly hockey tournaments have kept us hopping since December this season. We have just one more to survive before we call it a wrap for this season. January we had an away tournament and an in-town tournament on back to back weekends. December we also had tournaments in back to back weekends before Christmas. […]
Reasons I Need Caffeine: Sixth Edition
If there was any doubt it was winter, this week sure drove the point home. This week alone we had two snow storms, a day of rain/freezing rain and a day where the temperature was both warm enough to melt snow and then cold enough to freeze every flat surface into a skating rink. Sidewalks […]
A Step by Step Guide for Getting Your Hockey Player Dressed
Picture this: Your beautiful baby comes home and tells you they want to play hockey. So off you go to get equipment. That by itself is overwhelming enough. But then you show up to the rink, open up the brand new bag and ….. Your brain short circuits. And it’s not because of the smell….that […]
Reasons I Need Caffeine: Fifth Edition
Hello friends. It’s time for another weekly recap. And I’m not going to lie, I simultaneously feel like I both did all the things and did absolutely nothing this week. It’s a weird headspace to be in. We had a fairly quiet week on the hockey front. No practices during the week or anything. HockeyDad […]
5 Ways to Keep Siblings Occupied at the Rink
There was a time, early on in our hockey life where I would skip hockey practice routinely. Keeping the siblings occupied at the rink was not an easy task. Actually, herding feral cats was probably less of a challenge. There was no need for me to be there and it was a nightmare to bring […]
