A Return Of Sorts
3 Nov 2008 by jess
When I moved to Seattle in late 2001, my dad emailed me a link to the Seattle Women’s Hockey Club. At the time I didn’t have the budget to invest in all of the equipment, but I kept it in the back of my mind.
I moved back to the DC area in 2003. In 2006 I started taking skating lessons and in 2007 I started going to stick and shoots & taking hockey classes. My knee injury in early 2008 has kept me from the ice for the past 10 months (ugh), but I think I may be getting to the point where I just go out there and see what happens.
My hockey equipment has been packed away and shoved into the attic as we prepare our house in DC for selling and get everything ready to return to Seattle. I pulled my skates out of the bag along with a pair of skate socks in the hopes that I find the time to get out on the ice here before we move or after we get to temporary housing in Seattle. And maybe then I will be able to join the SWHC.
Yay! Hope your knee agrees with everyone else that it’s time for you to be back on the ice.
