THE reason I got banded

Alexandra · January 23, 2006

We went again today, and nope, it wasn't a fluke. I can still ice skate!! :thankyou:

This time I saw a friend there (by accident) and she had a camera. She took a pic of Catie and me on ice, and I'm supposed to get it next week. I'll share, I promise!

Man, are my legs going to hurt tomorrow. But it's the good kind of pain. I'm loving this!! :biggrin1: :biggrin1: :biggrin1:

Alex~

That's wonderful!! And as the others have said, you should be so proud. Enjoy every minute with those lucky little girls! They must have been thrilled, too. My two sons are 25 & 27, and I'm having this surgery so I can be around to play with their children someday. Thanks for sharing that special event with us.

Oh congratulations Alex...what a wonderful NSV!!! Reading your story, makes me determined that I am going to get out on the skating rink the next time I take the kids skating. I love skating and didn't do it the last time, because I was just too afraid. Never again...I am going to do it!!! Life is not going to pass me by!

WOW!! You have won my respect! I can only imagine how sore I would be! Not to mention my back would be out because I would be on my butt quicker than you could snap your fingers. LOL!! It's great that you are accomplishing your goals Alexandra!! Keep kicking butt woman!!!
