Hockey Wives (I know there are a few of us here...)

Does your backyard, garage, spare room, etc look like this??  Seriously, the amount of hockey equipment laying around, particularly after being used since it's all spread out to un-stink, is amazing to me.  This pile doesn't include the shin guards (and whatever else) were on a lawn chair by the pool.  I think a bigger house is in order.

BTW, I'd like to point out Todd's homemade hockey-pants-drying contraption.  He was thrilled that it was warm enough to use this weekend.  It is a string hanging from the patio cover, on which he hung a wire hanger that he fashioned to be able to hook the pants on for drying.  Really?  How nice for people to come over and see.  Indifferent

Re: Hockey Wives (I know there are a few of us here...)

  • LOL! That contraption is a thing of beauty.
  • Oh man Amy, I remember that hockey gear smell like it was yesterday.  That is a stench that forever stays imbedded in my brain!  My heart goes to you!  :)

  • OMG!  I am not showing J that contraption, he will build one for himself!  That smell is unbearable.  We call it the Hockey Funk.

    At least he knows how much it smells, so it all hangs in our second bedroom ("the office", which means our wireless router and desk are in there) and that door stays closed.  Sometimes I bring my work laptop home and use it at the kitchen table.  "Why don't you use that in the office, so you can sit at a real desk?".  Umm... I think you know why!

  • Haha! I remember you telling me about this in the summer time... hilarious, sort of. ;P  Btw, I love your yard... I want to come over and hang out, love the palm tree :)

  • The things that make us strong women......hahaha

    I remember you telling us about this wonderful creation Stick out tongue too, but at least it's outside and not inside!

  • Better you than me sister!
  • if it makes you feel any better, my DH is a goalie, and all his stuff goes in the very small laundry room to dry b/c we don't have any outside space in the condo. :(  I feel (smell?) your pain...
  • OH GAWD.  Goalie gear is even bigger.  Yuk. 
  • phew!  so happy basketball is MH's sport of choice.  Even if he is in charge of washing the team's jerseys every week - at least we can just throw them in the washer right away.
