Well, I just managed to completely fix Tristan’s beloved Star Wars watch. A few months ago, he had forgotten to take it off his arm when enjoying the whirlpool bathtub at my mom’s place in the country… he was almost inconsolable upset and in tears when he realised that the watch was seemingly kaput for good by the water.
The FAB / Starpoint SW-WH-303 Star Wars watch is only US $5.99 on Amazon.com, but it was far more about his sadness at having broken the gift watch that his mother had bought for him – in addition, Zachary also has one.
Anyhow, so I had kept the watch aside for several months… and this weekend suggested to him that he put it on the Christmas tree in the hopes that Santa would perhaps repair it…
So, Santa being as busy as he/she is with all her deliverables these days, I figured I would give it a shot… took the case apart and reset it and magically all functions are working! It’ll be wrapped up and put back on the tree

Tristan Majumdar dressing as goalie
Bravo à Tristan pour son beau travail (encore) dans les buts avec les Conquérants de St-Basile-le-Grand dans leur match contre les Éperviers de St-Bruno hier soir… victoire 3-2 !
After so many tough games this first win of the season is well deserved!

Alors voila Tristan le 25 octobre quelques seconds avant d’embarquer sur la glace pour son évaluation Novice suite au début de la saison d’hockey junior MAGH-3 à St-Basile-le-Grand. Tristan est un goalie (qui adore aussi jouer le rôle d’attaquant et défenseur) mais l’évaluation a commencé avec lui comme jouer… le plus important ? Bien regardez son grand sourire… c’est ca qui compte, et c’est pour ca qu’il est si bon
So here’s Tristan on October 25th a few seconds before getting on the ice for his Novice try-out evaluation after that start of the MAGH-3 junior season in St-Basile-le-Grand. Tristan is a goalie (at heart, but loves playing forward and defensive too) but the try-out evaluation started with him as a player… What counts the most? Well, check out that big smile… that’s what really counts, and it’s because of that that he’s so good

At first Tristan and Zachary were somewhat disinterested in the pumpkin ritual as they were distracted by that (evil) TV and some usual crapola on Teletoon or whatever….
Tristan and Zachary’s first experience at carving and prepping a pumpkin was fun; ok, granted, it may seem a bit late to experience their first pumpkin carving but such is life.
They had seen my Ace compression bandage earlier in the day covering my leg from thigh to foot over the vein stripping incision bandages… (no they didn’t see those yet)..
