Busy Week Coming Up!!

So last night was absolutely insane but amazing. Went to the Bruins-Panthers game.. The Panthers got their ASS KICKED!!! 6-1 was the final score. Byron Bitz (Itsy Bitzy or Triple B (Boston Byron Bitz) or just Bitzy as I call him) had 2 goals and by the last 2 minutes he had almost 17,000 people chanting BITZ BITZ BITZ BITZ!! The last minute the crowd was screaming "we want Bitz".. The kid was insane and earned soo much respect.. He also got 1st star and my all time Lucic got 3rd star so it was great.. Bitz now has 3 goals 2 of which came last night.. As someone commented on the Globe today" If Bitz had gotten a hat trick, we would have torn the Garden apart brick by brick" !! The electricity and vibe was just intense !! The Bruins are back home and winning!!! Life is always better when they are playing great!! We are going to the game tomorrow night against the Ducks.. WIll have updates on that Friday.. I wore my first ordered pair of contacts today and it was miserable. Long story short, I had to go to the doc because everything was co ming in and out of focus. They believe I am just tired and having trouble focusing because my eyes were slow to dialate. Today is Ash Wednesday. Well I am wicked tired, so Goofy and I are going to go watch the rest of season one of Moonlight. Love the show!! Hope everyone is having a good week!!

Nothing like a Sunday update!

Hello to all!! Well this week has been crazy busy but lots to update on. Played Wii Fit for the first time yesterday!! SOOO MUCH FUN!! MRI has turned out to be " normal" which was good news i suppose... On Wednesday I aced my contact 2nd follow up!! I can officially see much better with this pair and got my first order of 3 month supply!! Yesterday I picked up my glasses :'( .. I promise I will only say it once but I HATE BIFOCAL GLASSES!! I am starting to really like the contacts. Tuesday night Goofey went to do Lens Crafters with me and helped pick them out. Here are the Frames you can see for yourself. I found other pair I liked much better but due to having bifocals I am still limited to how small they can be. There hasn't been to much action in hockey world. I missed last nights game which I think was only the 4th or 5th game I have not watched all season. We are going to Tuesdays game against the Florida Panthers. Tonight its Bruins vs Tampa Bay. Goofey is making Beer Chili tonight mmm can't wait it smells yummy. I think later in the week I am going to try making a Rachael Ray recipe.. Will keep you updated on how that goes.. I love cooking so much. My computer is being so stupid. I have been working on it all day and finally got it working tonight. Ok I think that is it for now!! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Sending out warm thoughts to Lily .. Hope you don't get to much more snow!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Update on the MRI, had that yesterday but will not know any official diagnoses until Tuesday. Wet read says there is nothing major like a tumor or massive blockage!
Today has been very low key but wonderful. This morning I made blueberry french toast which turned out very good. Just bummed around and started making the cake this afternoon. Did some cleaning too.. Dave made Honey Dijon Salmon which was absolutely AMAZING with sides of corn and carrots!!!! We had a wonderful dinner by candlelight. Was so nice to sit at the table with no TV or interruptions. The salmon still had the "skin" on the bottom and we found out that if I see the silver scales it turns my tummy!! It was hilarious. I can see brain, guts, blood, and it doesn't phase me but the fat on corned beef and skin on fish OMG I almost DIE!! One of my candle holder's base which is made of glass, was broken and i was drying it off and somehow the edge of the glass made a nice slice right over my right thumb knuckle.. I immediately knew it wasn't good, but at first it didn't start bleeding and then all the sudden it let out!! I put a lot of pressure on it for like 20min before it would stop bleeding, but if i even try to bend my finger it starts bleeding again. I think it is fine. It stopped and i put a bandaid on it and wrapped it in an ace tape to keep it straight for I figure a day or two then it will be fine. I made a Red Velvet Cake with a cream cheese frosting for dessert. We haven't had it yet but here is what it looks like!
Bruins are playing the Predators!! They played a great game last night but lost to a soft goal.
Okay well I am going to go watch the rest of the game! Wishing everyone a very Happy Valentine's Day!!

Tuesday Goodies

The Bruins are playing tonight. I am very excited and also happy to report that Ryder will only be out 2-3 weeks recovering from his orbital fractures. Northeastern lost the Bean Pot yesterday. Today was okay. I have to go for an MRI on Friday as there is a chance my headache is being caused by a blood clot in the brain. I am not sure how I am handling it yet. I go through waves of anger then being ok and not worried. I am just going to try and not think about it til next week. I am still pretty motion sick. I am excited because I have a 3 day weekend this weekend plus it is Valentines day!!! Goofy and I are going to keep it low key and just cook for each other.. I am so excited I am coming up with breakfast and dessert and he is making dinner. Well I guess that is all to report today. Going to go enjoy the hockey game. Oh yeah I started reading Jurassic Park last night...

Weekend Update

So the weekend wasn't what I had pictured at all. Friday was ok, took a half day at work, got everything together and headed up to VT. Drive was fine. Started feeling extremely motion sickness that night but as soon as we got there I took my contacts out. By 11pm I was vomiting and passed out from the nausea. Saturday morning, woke up and anything I looked at was just shaking. Nothing was in focus and I could barely stand up. I called my doc and she said I needed to go to the ER. Dave had gone skiing with everyone earlier in the morning. It took me until 11am before i could get out of bed and shower. I had to cancel my massage to go to the ER. After much arguing, I picked up Dave at the mountain and we drove over to NH to DHMC. They diagnosed it as Migraines. They gave me a ton of fluids and meds through IV, and said I would be out of it the rest of the night. They sure were right. We got back to VT around 4pm and I slept until 10am Sunday morning. Socialized some and returned back to MA and it was amazing to be back home. Just mainly slept all day. Today went back to work and it seems to have gotten better. Tomorrow I have the follow up appointment with my doctor to figure this out.. Will keep all updated.

They Don't Bite!

So I have come to a conclusion that my contacts are my friends not mini jellyfish without the tentacles ( cmon they so look like them !). I woke up and decided it was time to have a chat with them before we both started a love-hate relationship. I gave them a bath and looked at them and was like I will be nice to you if you will be nice to me. The agreement was mutual. They decided to give my eyes a hug on the first or second try. My old pair used to kick and scream and then just when i thought the tantrum was over , i would blink and they would pop out! I had decided they were going through the terrible twos or puberty. They assisted me in seeing until lunch time when I laid them down for their extended nap for the day. We are both still getting acquinted with one another and we don't want any cat/scratching fights. I watered my eyes and everyone was happy. I decided I am missing the little buggers and can't wait to visit with them again tomorrow morning!
Tonight Goofy and I ordered a 5 cheese pizza that we are waiting to be delivered because we are both hungry. Bruins play tonight but Lucic is out with a swollen foot. He took a shot off the foot last night in the game and apparently it is too swollen for him to dress tonight. The Bruins are facing the Ottowa Senators tonight at 7pm. I can't wait I love watching games. I have to do some work tonight at home while watching the game but going to try and get alot done so I don't have to do while on Ski trip. Tomorrow I am only working a half day because we leave for the gang ski trip this year in VT! I am not skiing but going to have my first massage !! Fifty minutes of pure relaxation, not sure how my body is going to take that!! Dinner and Bruins!! Night all!!

So Sad

I have been prescribed my dreaded fear. Time for Bifocals again. When the doctor told me, I literally almost started crying. She was great and presented all the options and we decided the best option is contacts. It is still really hard for me to admit to needing them or that is the right option. I hate them more than anyone knows. Colors are all "corrected" and I can't see far away like street signs as well as I can without glasses. It makes things "worse" than regular glasses. Just talking about it makes me so close to tears. The only good thing is right away it helped reduce my headache. Last night I couldn't sleep at all because it just felt like needles in the forehead. I finally kind of fell asleep around 6:30 and slept until 7:45.. BRUTALNESS.. I will give the prescription one month and then will make the final call and hope that I can make a smooth transition and not reject them because of the scars they bring . In a month if I have adjusted I will get the glasses filled for when i don't wear my contacts. I really don't know why it bothers me so bad. I even called my mom right after I found out and the first thing she said was Oh I am so sorry I know how hard it is for you. Hopefully I can work through it and make the adjustment.
So there is the scoop. I am heading to bed to watch an episode of Moonlight..
Bruins won!! 3-1!! So happy and I got to talk to Lily and we had our good laughs!!! Remember Lily lots of Vitamin C!!!!! :-D Nighty night to all!

Tuesday Randomness

So today wasn't to exciting.. Worked until a little after 6pm then had to deal with the snowy commute home.. I have had a headache for 2 days now. Not sure what is causing it but I think it might be time for an eye exam so I scheduled one for tomorrow at 5:30. I hate eye exams so much especially if they have to dilate my eyes. Also I am going to cry if they tell me I have to wear glasses all the time. Right now I only have to wear them if I am at work or reading. I will SCREAM if they put me back into bifocals... NOOOOO.. I have nightmares of Bifocals. You don't understand try being a 13 year old who has to wear old lady huge bug glasses because progressive lenses have not hit the market yet... If I have to do bifocals again(cringe) I will most likely do contacts. I will probably do contacts at some point if I have to wear glasses all the time. I despise glasses with a passion and only in the last 6 months been wearing them faithfully everyday at work. Came home, did some dishes and then Goofy and I made dinner together. Pasta with meat sauce and rolls... MMMMM I love food ( and I wonder why I can't loose weight ) hmmm... I was going to go to the gym but a certain someone told me I must go home and no gym for me .. ( I am going to have to come up with Aliases for my friends . Tomorrows thoughts!) Agenda for this evening: Play some Mario Galaxy and then have ice cream sundae, then BEDDY!!! Will write tomorrow about how the apt goes if I can see when I get home! Oh yeah, Bruins game on tomorrow night agains the Flyers!!! Yippe I get to see my boys!

Welcome

Hello! Welcome to my blog.. I am going to attempt this whole blogging thing. I did it back in the day at Xanga and of course joined the myspace groupies, but never stuck with it.. I will probably whine about a lot of things like life, but will express my joys of dance, hockey and such also! Alittle about me, I love alligators so much. The one and only reason I miss florida. I miss dancing quite a bit but still appreciate it. I went and saw Romeo and Juliet performed by Boston Ballet last year on Valentine's Day.. Thanks honey you are the bestest! Hockey is my new obsession. My favorite players are Lucic, Wheeler and Thomas. Some might say I am a sports fanatic, I can deal with it!
Tonight we are watching the second game of the Beanpot.. Of course rooting for Northeastern (hint that is where my bf went) vs BC. BU won the first game over Harvard. So for my first post, that is all I have tonight! Going to go relax a little more, play bubble spinner at addicting games because trust me it is ADDICTING, maybe crochet some tonight, other than that just make an ice cream sundae later MMM!!!
