Another nice few days...

On Wednesday I made plans to go hang out with my Great Aunt. The night before, I thought to print out a bunch of pictures on regular paper for her to look at. Some from my day at the coast, some from Thanksgiving, some of the family dogs, some from Sharks games, etc. I also thought to print out the Sharks current player stats and all the league standings. She doesn't watch the games, but she makes a mental note of how they are doing when she hears the short blurb on the nightly news. I think it's kind of our "thing". The one thing she talks about with me and no one else. It's cute when she calls me and says " I heard the Sharks do.... last night." So after we cut out some pictures and put them on her fridge, and I explained to her what goals, assists, points, +/-, etc meant, she took me to dinner for my birthday. We went to Elephant Bar and it was yummy!!!

Then Thursday I went to my Aunts to go bum around. We went to the mall and she picked up a few gifts. Then we went to Michaels where I picked up a green tinsel Christmas Tree with lights for $5.99, which was way cheap. I thought a pink one may be over the top My place is so small that I haven't had a tree in years so thought this would be festive. Then my Aunt and Uncle gave me my Bday gift... another Ticketmaster gift certificate. WooHoo!! I have enough for 2 games now

Then a friend on The Arena had 2 extra tickets to the Sharks/Kings game in L.A. on Monday that she needed to sell. And if Sarah didn't have finals next week, we may have spontaneously drove down there for an overnighter to go see the game and meet the L.A. area Sharks fans. Bummer!! Not like I'm going to drive all the way down there by myself. So maybe we'll plan a L.A. road trip or another trip to Phoenix in the Spring, if we can afford it.

Well, that's it for now. Off to Claire and Bobby's Friday until Sunday to partake in great food, drinks and visiting with a lot of people I haven't seen in a while. So have a great weekend.
