Patch Perseverance

 I skated the Chandler Ice Cafe for patch practice, since I had just gotten my patch skates back from being sharpened.  

The skates are fine -- as always, Northwest Skate Authorities for the win!  I managed to somehow hurt my L shoulder last Friday-ish though and while most things are fine, tying my skates really hurts!  Oh well.  I had a doctor appt. on Tuesday.  He says it will probably be fine on its own but he wrote me a PT prescription just in case.  Urgh.
