This past week has been busy as I was back in IL for work, came home a little early as the battery went out in Kay’s car, then off to Huntsville for a hockey tournament. I left for IL last Sunday and was in the office on Monday morning. Was there through Thursday but left sooner than expected as Kay called bright and early as her car wouldn’t start, battery was dead. I headed back later that morning to pick her up from work and install a new battery, in hopes that was the only problem. It seems to be.

Friday afternoon it was off to Huntsville, AL for the annual Rocket City Hockey Tournament. I’ve been lucky to play the last three years and had a great time again. We played in the championship game Sunday afternoon, against another Nashville team, but lost. We spent all our energy the game before that morning and had nothing left, it was still a fun time.

I’m now back to playing catch up, which includes getting the back rested. Last Saturday, while family was in for CMA Music Fest, I decided to take some landscaping stones back to the store. Unfortunately for me when picking a couple up the back said nope !!!. It took me 15 minutes to get back inside and I was in bed most of the morning. Couldn’t get out without pulling my knees to 90 degrees and rolling sideways. By the evening I could move around a little, but had to pass on the CMA activities. It has been getting better every day and taking a week off from hockey should help.
