One of my favorite memories growing up was watching hockey in the living room with my best friend and his family. It was tradition that we would watch all major sporting events with his dad in the living room. I do not remember any scores or any events specifically, just the memory of us all…
The boys woke up early for Christmas but they knew that they could not come out until after 7:30am. They stayed in bed and chatted and then you could hear the countdown begin once it approached 7:30am. It is far more exciting watching the kids open gifts then receiving gifts. They get so much joy…
With Christmas I have been a bit busy with things. It always amuses me when people text and reach out when I do not write for a while. My sister told me that I should just write that I am alive on those days. I have a friend who texts me that every couple of…
Today we went over to my in-laws for Christmas brunch and to open some gifts as my sister in law is leaving for the holidays. It has been the longest I have been out for a while and I must say that it was exhausting being out so long. It surprised me that I would…

We have a great relationship with both sides of our family and it has helped in the last year. They have helped us out a lot with taking the kids or cooking us meals and desserts. Through out my whole life I have had great parental figures at each stage of my life. When I…
This morning I went for my CT scan to check for anymore bleeding. It will take a week for the results to come in. If I get a call this week it will be to tell me to come into the hospital immediately as there is bleeding. I do not anticipate that I will be…
