Hockey practice went much better with both braces on- it makes it possible for me to bend over to the kids' level and stay there long enough to hear anything they have to say. It also makes it possible to actually skate considerably closer to the way i'd like to, rather than having to limit myself to what my knees will allow. Aside from that, it was a day to hit posts. Usually when the coaches want the kids to pay attention, we'll just start shooting pucks into the net so they're not lying around to distract the kids- that happens easily enough as it is. At one point, with one of these loose pucks i hit the right post from the left circle and had the puck come right back to me, at which point i hit the other post. Also generated an NHL calibre ring hitting one later in practice- i've noticed that practicing with the kids weekly has had some really positive impact - my puck-handling is significantly better than it was, and my shot is a lot heavier. Also found one way to get the entire team's heads to turn at once- throw a hard wrist shot off the glass. All the kids snapped to attention at that point.

Anyway, tired and generally cranky, so i'm going to head off to bed shortly. Nicholas didn't nap considerably today, so he should be easy to get down.
