Hockey, How I Love You!
Sep. 22nd, 2020 09:26 amSo, I haven’t managed to post since the pandemic lockdown started, mostly because after being on my computer all not only to write tech docs but also teach, the last thing I’ve wanted to do is get on my personal computer. Which has meant still no writing and no DW. Hasn’t stopped me doomscrolling on Twitter, though. 🤨 (I really need to stop that.)
But things maybe looking up. Because I have finally gone back to hockey! Yes, even after a broken wrist and a concussion. I’ve made a deal with my husband that I’m no longer going to be on bench staff for Ros’ team, since both injuries happened when I was coaching, not playing. And if I have one more major injury, I’m out.
My league, unfortunately canceled this year’s season. But a friend from the league hooked me up with someone who arranged for private lessons at the nearby rink during the day. From now till December I’ll be doing lessons every Monday morning!
Yesterday was the first class, and it was so much fun! And also a heck of a lot of work. Hockey works just about every muscle in your body, and I was drenched in sweat by the time it was over.
They’re being careful about COVID. There are only 10 of us in the class, 5 per change room, masks are required in the dressing room and we stay spread out on the ice. Alas, there will be no scrimmages since that puts us too close together.
But it’s hockey! Yay!
