Playing Catch Up!

I know,  I  know! I have been VERY delinquent in my blog these days but it being year end and Christmas just around the corner its been a very busy month or so.  Just a little high level note to let you know whats been happening lately:

• I was nominated and awarded a role on our Board of Directors as Secertary, this has also proved to be a very busy task at this time of year preparing year end reports, annual general meeting etc..but I am VERY happy to be a part of the BOD and have some input in the future of the Dieppe Roller Derby
• I spent a day with the gang from Fog City Rollers (Saint John) with I'd Hit That, Vigilante Banshee and JaggerMaster.  We got to participate in their practice, scrimmage and meet some of the group.  I had a fantastic time and I can't thanks the lovely ladies of FCR enough! It was a great experience and thanks so much for the opportunity! DRD loves all things FCR!
• Had a couple insane practices where I thought for sure Pixel Ninja was trying to kill me! But man, I keep going back and feel great! Feeling much more confident in my skills and I know his training is what is making that happen!
• I got some awesome new gear, my VERY OWN JUKES! :) Rector Fat Boy Knee Pads, 187 Wrist Guards and a new professional custom made mouth guards from the students of Oulton College Dental Program.
• Had some of our girls leave DRD and it will be sad to not see them around but I wish each of you all the best and hope that we see each other again soon...Klem'Mydia Burns, InstaBitch, Monkey Face and Caraseen Fury..miss you ladies already! :(

We just started our Christmas Break and I am off to Jamaica in 5 more sleeps! I cant wait although 3 weeks with no derby will be rough, gonna have to squeeze in push ups, sit ups, lunges, and squats while I am away or I will be in a lot of pain when I get back...LOL

Anyway folks, I wish you all a very happy holiday and I promise to update more often in the new year!
