Just Bethany :)

• My family.  Sure, they annoy me…most of the time, but they really are great people and I am thrilled to have them in my life.
• Hockey.  Does that sound lame?  Probably.  But, guess what?  It’s something I love and I can’t help but love it.
• Columbus Blue Jackets, yes, this is something different than hockey.  They have given me the unique opportunity to be in the locker room with them.  It’s given me a chance to spread my wings as a reporter.
• Derick Brassard, Jake Voracek, and Steve Mason for giving Jackets fans hope.  *Nikita we keep waiting for you!*
• My niece!  She’s absolutely gorgeous, and I adore her more than anything!  I am so lucky to have such an amazing little girl in my life.

• My car.  It gets me from point a to point b and it is a trooper.
• Kelley.  I don’t know what I would do without her.  She’s my best friend and I can count on her for ANYTHING!
• My job.  I work with the best people in the world.  They are great people, and are like my sisters.  I am so lucky to have a great job and people I can count on.
• My math test taking skills.  I got a 90% on a math test the other day.  It was the greatest.  True. Story.
• My cousins baby, Caden Cash.  He was born two months early, and thankfully he is doing remarkably well, and will be going home soon.  My cousin is diabetic so he weighed 6 pounds 2.3 oz.  He is absolutely beautiful and they are so lucky to have a healthy baby!

Tonight the Montreal Canadiens retired Patrick Roy’s number. Patrick Roy is one of the best goaltenders to ever play the game. Below is a video of another elite goaltender, Roberto Luongo, one of the best in the league (who ironically got injured this afternoon) talking about Roy. He was asked who the best goaltenders were…never once does he mention himself although he should always be talked about when talking about the best goaltenders. This is just another reason why I love hockey players, they’re humble, and they are absolutely the best people you will ever meet.

The Canadiens had a great ceremony for Roy, and although there probably were some hurt feelings with him leaving all of that was left behind and he received a great ceremony.

Congrats Patrick Roy!

Scene:  Me laying on the couch, watching hockey, my mom walking in the door.

Mom walks in through the hall.

MOM:  How’s my favorite turtle?

Me: Turn my head and give a funny look.

MOM:  RICKY!  RICKY!! He’s watching hockey!!  Look Bethany, he’s watching hockey.

Me:  *Get up and look at the turtle*

Sure enough he’s at the edge of his tank, watching the game.

Me:  He’s definitely my turtle.

My life is INSANE right now.  I wish I had time to write all of it down.  My life, is exactly where I want it to be.  It’s only getting better. 

Tell me that you don’t love these guys.
