Hockey

Cameron is very happy to finally own his own hockey equipment. Since we started he has been using the helmet, stick and skates from the rink. We went to buy hockey socks this weekend and left without the socks, but left with skates, a helmet and shoulder pads. He is quite excited to show up tomorrow at hockey and show off his goods. He looks so darn cute in these pics!

Not much new

I am doing well as far as recovering. I went back to work this week. I only worked half days on Monday and Wednesday, but that was only because I had a school orientation one day and physical therapy the other day. Yesterday was a little tough on my knee as I was the only assistant at work so I had to get up a lot and walk around, but I iced it up and did ok.

Cameron started his hockey up again last night. I think he was happy to get back on the ice. I really need to make a point to get him to the open skate so he can practice more. Soccer ends this Saturday. Yay! I hate getting up early to go sit in the wind to watch him play. Does that make me a bad mom?

School started for me this week. I am just taking sociology and doing it online. It is a short semester at just 8 weeks. That means 2 chapters per week and two assignments with two discussions per week too. Tough, but I think I can manage. It makes me happy that I dropped the communications class I was going to be taking this summer too. That one had WAY too much work to be worrying about during what is supposed to be lazy summer days.

I haven't posted my books that I have read this year yet. Last year I only read 9 books the entire year. School took up too much of my time. This year I have already read 21! Here is my list, not necessarily in the order I read them:

The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Something Blue by Emily Giffin
Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
Motor Mouth by Janet Evanovich
Plum Lovin' by Janet Evanovich
Plum Lucky by Janet Evanovich
Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster
Bright Lights, Big Ass by Jen Lancaster
The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
Size 12 is Not Fat by Meg Cabot
Size 14 is Not Fat Either by Meg Cabot
YOU on a Diet by Mehmet Oz
Blood Brothers by Nora Roberts
The Hollow by Nora Roberts
Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella
Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
New Moon by Stephenie Meyer
Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
Smart vs. Pretty by Valerie Frankel

It's been nice to actually read again. Those science classes just took too much out of me to allow time to read.

This turned into a pretty long post. I am going to go clean house then read my text book.
