Back on the Tricycle

Well after 3 1/2 weeks of rehab I have received clearance to play hockey this weekend.  I do have a lengthy list of things I must do in order to play.  Everything from warm-up exercises to wraps and balms that must be used.  It should make for an interesting game.  I will only be playing one game as I do not want to push it too hard.

This weekend will be the one year anniversary of Johnathon's passing.  Becky and I will be going to the cemetery at 5pm on Saturday to pay our respects and to watch the sunset.  When Johnathon passed both of us commented how beautiful the sunset was in his room that night.  we feel that taking the time one day out of the year to watch the sunset is a great way to pay respect.  A question I have for you is how often do you ever watch the sunset?  If you want to participate with us you don't necessarily need to be there.  Just take 10 minutes and watch the colors that explode across the sky.  The golds, oranges, and yellows are some of the richest colors you will ever see in your life.  The peacefulness that you will get from viewing this will make you reflect on so many things in your life.

After this we will be at the Dr. Pepper Starcenter in Euless for the 7pm hockey game (Ice Bats vs. Komets).  We would love for everyone to attend the game and to share some good laughs on my part (my hockey team can be real comedians sometimes depending how we are playing). After the game we plan to spend some time with our friends and family members.  I hope to see you there.

Next week will be a very special week for Becky as she will be graduating from UTA with a Bachelors in Nursing.  I know that over the last couple years I have been so proud of her in taking charge of her education and working so hard to get her degree.  No amount of words will ever symbolize how proud I am of her and how I cannot wait to see her walk across that stage and receive her degree.  Her official graduation date will be December 11th.  If you have not already sent her an email, post your congratulations on this website.

On a final note I would like to thank my workout partners for being so tolerant of my physical limitations that last few weeks.  You all have been so great and supportive of me.  I hope that I have kept the workouts strong and you have not felt cheated by my limited abilities.  In the upcoming days as I become able to handle more activities I hope to be able to step and do with the group. 

See you at the hockey game.
