..Oh wait, that’s supposed to be build instead of buy.

I had been thinking about going back to Michigan for one of these Holidays like Thanksgiving or Christmas but also dreading the whole traveling part of it. And so, after talking with my mom I decided that my Holiday gift this year would be to buy Mom and Sis a trip out to CA. And so, they arrive on December 6th and fly back to Winter Wonderland on December 11th. I miss Thanksgiving and Christmas with family, but they get to have a nice break away between both holidays. Interestingly enough, it was cheaper to fly BOTH of them here than it would have been for me to fly back there for Christmas.

Today is Monday and though I haven’t really had a busy day, I feel like I have. Hollyweird’s weather has cooled off a little… To about as cold as it ever gets here. It almost reminds me of a Michigan Fall only without the smell of Apple Cider Mills and fresh greasy cinnamon Doughnuts in the air. Oh how I miss those Cider Mills!

Well…Not much to report today. We lost our Hockey game last night[And I was ACTUALLY EARLY!] but for the 1st two periods we were ahead by 2 and then in the 3rd the opposing team scored SIX goals! The final score was 3 to 6. Regardless, I felt like it was a great game. Saturday afternoon I’ll be at the 3pm hockey Scrimmage in Harbor City. Should be fun. I’m really enjoying this sport…I feel tired and a little sore afterwards but it’s a good feeling-hard to explain. Perhaps it’s because I KNOW if I wasn’t out there doing this, I’d be here looking at my computer screen getting a tanning booth computer burn.

Well….Time to turn over and tan my backside
