Day 431 - Hitmen Game!

Posted by Jill Marie

Today I packed up some stuff & headed into the city. I am spending the next few days at Mom2's - we're having a late Christmas, as her stepson's girlfriend was in Mexico & they wanted to wait until the family was here to have Christmas. Lucky for me, I'll finally feel like eating some mashed potatoes & gravy! Even luckier to be getting some!

I felt pretty rough this morning & not much of an appetite. In fact, I thought I was going to spill over several times through out the day! Thankfully I didn't!

Mom2's neighbours gave them some Hitmen tickets, so Mom2, Dad2, Justine, Tyler, Ricky & myself all went to the game. It was a lot of fun! After the game, the kids were able to skate with the Hitmen & get autographs. It was a pretty memorable experience for a lot of kids. I was amazed at how young some of the kids were! Could they even walk without skates? Crazy!

I think the healthiest thing I ate was the bottle of water. Otherwise, there were pocket dawgs, pretzels, twizzlers, burgers, fries, onion rings, ice cream, cotton candy & sno-cones floating about... Yeesh. I tried some cotton candy. It's really quite amazing they can sell sugary fuzz. I pick the fuzzies out of my food, people eat fuzzies like they are going out of style! The aftertaste was atrocious! Yuck! I guess that's why the target market is under 12!

When we left the Saddledome, it had started snowing. Big, fluffy flakes! Tomorrow will look like Christmas - Yay! Oh & speaking of that, I gave Mom2 one of her gifts. I made her a necklace last night. It's pretty crude, but I'm still happy with it! I think she is too!

Okay, the little dogs are softly snoring by my side... I best join them! Lekker slaap & Merry Christmas! Again!
