Oh Happy Day!!!

 
It's SPRING in ND and it's busting out ALL over the place.  Geese flying overhead, robins chirping, snow disappearing. Yes, yes…it's ALL good up here in the northland!  I posted on Fbook the other day that you really do need to live through a ND winter in order to appreciate a ND spring.  How very true!
ND had a reason to celebrate a little bit yesterday.  Our golden collegiate hockey team - the UND Fighting Sioux - made it to the Frozen Four.  Yay team!  The had an outstanding season this year and played their hearts out.  To make it to the Frozen Four is a feat in and of itself.  They had the whole state behind them.  Unfortunately, the did not advance.  They played a well deserving team in Michigan last night.   A good game was played…but the Sioux just couldn't pull it out of the hat.  :(     Anyone who knows me, knows that I take my hockey pretty seriously.  While I may be a tad bit depressed today, I'm sure the sunshine will help me recover from the disappointing loss.
So, it's Friday today.  And it's my day to see my support group:  Hair Stylist, Reflexologist and Massage Therapist!  Woooo Hoooo.  Every six weeks I need a tune-up and these gals are just the ones to do it for me!  They totally rock!
After a relaxing day in the hands of my support group, I think I'll go home, cook/eat a nice dinner of grilled chicken breasts (I declare grilling season officially open in ND!) with a pasta side dish and steamed broccoli florets.  Since Camelot is on Starz tonight, I might even celebrate with a glass of Moscato wine while relaxing and watching the series installment!
Yes, it truly is a Happy Day!
