12/1/10

Well first off Happy bday to my bestie Anna! (she probably doesn't even read this but thats okay...) Second, holy cow its December?? When did that happen?

I have been completely slacking on writing on my blog...sorrrrry.

Not to much has been happening here though. We had a game last weekend in Monforte de Lemos. It is right by the top of Portugal and FREEZING. Like really cold....it was 4pm and we were starting our match and it was about 30 degrees.  Now if I was inside, next to the fire, drinking hot coco we wouldn't have an issue but I was PLAYING in it. They must not believe in heaters because up until the ref blew the whistle I had on about 5 layers. We had to play in our jerseys and spandex though. Every time we had a time out I put on my jacket and I don't think my hands ever got fully warm.  But regardless of all that we played fantastic and totally kicked some major butt.  Did I mention that this game was a 10 hour van ride away? Yep, on Friday we drove allll day. 9am-9pm. (stopped for lunch and gas and things) to play a match we wont in three and was over in about an hour and 20 min then left right after for home. Talk about a long weekend.  We got home about 630am on Sunday.

There have been a few things going on here in Spain with payments and such. It looks like either I will be home for good on December 19th OR I will be coming home within the next week! Both are fine by me and I will be finding a new place to play with the new year approaching.  I am looking forward to a new experience on another team or another place in the world.  I had such a great overall experience in Spain and am SO glad I met the girls and of course Rachael who I have become really close with.

I will keep yo posted on what happens but I may be home sooner than later! Yay!
