Skates Are In!

I called the pro shop today, and my skates are in! I'm getting them fitted tomorrow at 6. Yea!

I did some digging around and found Jackson Skates's page on care and maintenance of skates. Sure enough, Danni was right:

"Leather soles and heels should be waterproofed prior to installation of blade for best results.Also this maintenance should be continued periodically to stop water penetration into the leather and possible leather rot. "

I'm a little scared to do this, because I will have to take the blades off to do it... but it needs to be done to take care of my skates, so I will.
