St. Patricks Day
Hope everyone had a great St. Patrick’s Day 
,
I didn’t do to much, went to practice to find out it was cancelled due to the wind chill and snow which was a disappointment. So the team and I had a great brunch at our favourite “after practice” restaurant where everything is handmade or locally bought and very organic. It’s a great way to do some team bonding with some of our new teammates.
The one time, I forgot to bring my gym gear with me, the practice didn’t happen. Grr! I normally over pack my paddling bag for all weather conditions as I don’t know what the weather is really gonna be like and living an hour out doesn’t always help. So this way if practice gets cancelled for some reason, I’d be able to go straight to the gym instead of going home first. As I got home yesterday, the gym was put on hold. 
I did feel a bit guilty that I didn’t workout yesterday, so this morning I jumped onto the treadmill and did a light 60 minute cardio workout before I headed out to a very good friend of mine’s birthday tweet up and than dropped by my best friends folks as I haven’t seen them in a while.
How was your weekend?
Do you find yourself feeling guilty if you miss a workout?

Happy Monday!
Since it was my birthday on Friday, I drove over to a tattoo and piercing place and got my long overdue industrial piercing that I’ve wanted for years. Which just stung a little bit when I got it done. Afterwards I met up with an old co-worker who has a birthday on the 11th, so we held over to our favourite sandwich shop that is walking distance to the office for a birthday lunch. That night my family and I headed out for some sushi for dinner. Once we got back home my brother and I were having a few birthday shots.
Saturday was my family dinner with my extend family, we had a roast beef, yorkshire puddings (unhealthy I know.. but soooo good), veggies and a salad and my all time favourite dessert Mocha Mystery Dessert which was has been a family favourite ever since my Grams found it in one of our local newspapers 40+ years ago. After dinner and dessert, the girls (a 4 year old and a 7 year old) and I watched the Princess and the Frog. I’d rather hang out with the girls then listen to adult talk LOL.
Sunday was my day of catching up on a few shows I pvred and of course the Bobsleigh/Skeleton world cup action in Calgary.. Thanks to twitter I was able to keep up to date per day of what was happening results wise, but sometimes I’d rather watch the race then just pay attention to what people are saying on twitter.
My kidlet got me the best present ever! Tulips in my favourite colour (purple) and chocolate.
How was your weekend?
