Post Season Update

Post Season Update

Post season, spring/summer for many of us brings all sorts of new things. We do not do baseball in our house which for me,is great as personally as I hate it. Right now we are doing the rounds in the junior skates, booking training programs for the summer and trying to put together a summer 3 on 3 team. Post season is different for everyone, some continue in hockey with the spring leagues, some kids opt for lacrosse or baseball and some hang up the skates and just hang out with their friends. All of which are great. We like to continue training and playing throughout the spring and summer without the heavy commitments until August with the longer camps.

The past few weekends have been jammed packed with hockey and it has been awesome. I have missed my boys something fierce. Hockey allows us to spend time together, a lot of time, although mostly in vehicles. But I will take it. I have to admit that there always seems to be something missing without a full hockey schedule for me. It's weird actually, this empty feeling and it makes me wonder what the fuck is actually wrong with me, do the kids miss it as much as I do? I know I should be embracing the spare time which I seem to have no problem filing with all the things that don't get done during regular season but there is still a void.

I get my inspiration for writing from hockey itself. Real life writes itself and you cannot even make some of this shit up. There are so many different things that go on at every different level. And when I tell you to enjoy each part of the journey, I mean it. I wish I would have documented every single thing from squirts on, which is why I am looking for writing from you guys. I want to make this space for all moms with kids of all ages in all parts of the journey. Squirts to junior, girls or boys, everyone has a story to tell. The hockey community is a very tight knit bunch, no one really understands until the are ass deep into the season, then you decide if you love it or hate it. If you love it, you will sacrifice hundreds of hours and dollars to live this lifestyle, you get it and these people become like family to you.

I just wanted to give you guys a short update with what's going on with the blog so I won't ramble on. New content coming, giving the page a facelift. New merch will drop in September just in time for next season. I really want to build up this community and expand into some new things as it grows. You can send your stories to devaa34@gmail.com.
