never miss the kids hockey or sports.............sledding can happen after that

I only have 2 sleds and both permits will be purchase at full price.

I feel good now, so should be good - and as long as a little kid does not take me out again from behind at the knees on the ice and I go ass over tea kettle on my back and head followed by some nice crunching noises, I should be okay!   I have the same issue, hockey takes up a big portion of fall, winter and spring.....but I will still get out hopefully through the week with or without each of my kids and manage one trip in Feb, maybe another extended weekend while my wife takes care the kids schedule. I really do not like missing the kiddos stuff, especially hockey, but I do not miss much, so that is good. Understandable about the to buy or not buy dilemma.....good thing, if you want to call it that, I cannot see the prices bloating again anytime soon.  

This is my club. Definitely shitty outcome for sure. We’ve tried but to no avail… this is the outcome. Now I have to trailer to at least Strathroy. 

Hopefully all good now ( on the bold )   Yeah, son's hockey schedule still makes zero sense in buying new for this season. I would be buying it to have it collect dust. I'm fine with letting my antiquated Cat do that for now and leaving my cash going to work.
