It's Hockey Time – GO LEAFS!

Not too much new is going on here.  I went out for lunch today with my Aunt.  She has been wanting to take me to Cora’s restaurant for a long time and we finally made plans to go today.  I had a western omellete which was really good.  We stayed quite awhile and we had a nice visit.

On the way home I picked up a few groceries.  J has Wednesdays off school so he scheduled himself to work at McDonalds.  So later on in the afternoon I drove him to work and came home.  I made myself a cup of tea and watched on show General Hospital.  Later on I had dinner and watched American Idol.  Then I had to go and pick up J. 

On Sunday my friend Jane (from work) and I went to our friends daughter birthday party.  Her little girl just turned 1 years old.  She is such a cutie patootie!  She is so adorable and so well behaved!  There were alot of people and alot of food and we had a good time!  It was fun watching Mom open all her gifts, of course the birthday girl was trying to help!

Tomorrow I have an appt with my skin specialist.  I have two big skin tags on my upper thighs which I want removed.  They started out very small and have grown and they are pretty big so I want them removed.  I hope it doesn’t cost much and I hope he removes them tomorrow.  I don’t want to have to go back.

We still don’t have any snow here yet.  This is been unreal for the month of January but I think we are suppose to get 2 to 4 cm’s tomorrow.  Let’s see if that happens.

I’ve been thinking lately about getting an IPod Touch.  What I really want is an IPhone but I just can’t afford one.  I can’t even afford an IPod Touch really but I really, really want one! 

So I have been trying to figure out my bank account.  I’m going to be getting back some money back from my insurance for my feet (I see a chiropodas every 6 weeks and I claim it) and that just about pays for 1/2 of it plus I got my gst cheque this month.  So we went out and bought one on Saturday!  I got the 8 gig which  is all I really need anyway. 

I have been playing with it ever since and I absolutely love it!!!  J has been helping me with it.  When I’m not sitting at the computer, I have my IPod with me.  The first thing I did was put Facebook on it!  I love being able to see who is on line.  I especially can’t miss seeing if D is on line!  LOL!  Yes, I am addicted to Facebook!

J worked Saturday night and since there wasn’t a Leafs game on I watched the Toronto Maple Leafs vs Montreal Canadians 1967 stanley cup game.  The last time the Leafs won the stanley cup!  It was an amazing game!  I was thinking of my Dad the whole game becos he was there!  I wish I knew where he was sitting.  I’m going to ask my aunt if she knows then I will watch the game again and see if I can see him in the stands.  it’s in black and white and it is hard to tell but you never know.

Like I said it was an amazing game and I really love watching the old classic games.  I guess becos it reminds me of my Dad and I feel so close to him.  I was also thinking of D becos he is a Montreal fan and I know he would love to see the game.  I messaged D to tell him about it and I am anxious to hear what he has to say.

On Sunday my ex came over and he helped me put up a couple of pictures around the house.  One of which is my picture the one of the Special Tree.  I finally have it put up in the living room.  I am so proud of that picture becos I took it myself for my step father but unfortunately he never saw it becos he died a couple of days later.  I don’t know what took me so long to put it up!  I guess I just never got around to it.

My ex also had a talk with J.  He was asking him about school.  We had an appt. last Friday.  J didn’t do very well the first semester and they are letting J start the the whole semester over again.  We are going to get him on the applied program so he will get extra help.  He actually has an appt tomorrow morning with them.  J’s dad had a long talk with him telling him how important it is to study.  His father is paying for his course which I am very grateful for and so is J.  J is determined to do better and study more and hopefully he will do better this semester.

I had a dentist appt this afternoon.  I have been neglecting my teeth.  I know I am bad.  I thought I better take advantage of it while I still have benefits.  It was for a regualr cleaning but my tea are stained from drinking tea so it required alot of cleaning on the hygenists part.  She only did the bottom teeth and they are soar now.  I have to go back next Monday as well to do the top teeth.  Then I will be all shiney and clean!

Well, it’s late and I’m off to bed.  I hope everyone has a good week! 

Don’t worry, I am still alive!  Sorry I haven’t updated in awhile.  Alot has happened.  Let me fill you in…

I was laid off work on December 2nd!  Yes, you read that right.  I lost my job!  The company that I worked for was out sourcing our data entry group to India.  Can you believe that?  We new it was happening just not that fast.  They let me and my friend go and another lady who was a temp but she just became full time.  2 more girls have been told they are staying until the end of February and after that they are gone.  There will be no more data entry group at all.  Pretty sad isn’t it?  I’ve been there for 9 years and I’m gone!  I can’t believe they let me, a single mother go 3 weeks before Christmas!  It was quite a shock and everyone was crying!  Even our accounting manager was crying and she usually is a bitch! 

My friend and I cleared out our desks and we said our goodbye’s and there were lots of tears and hugs!  My friend invted me back to her house for lunch as this just happened before 12 noon.  I said “No thanks, I think I will go home and cry.”  My ex boss said “Pam, go to Jane’s and have a glass of wine.”  I said “OK.”  So after a nice lunch and whole bottle of wine later!  LOL!  We had a good cry and a few laughs.  One of the girls came over after work to see how we were doing.  We were happy she came by, it was so nice of her to give us support.

So of course this meant no Christmas party which I was so looking forward to.  I was so upset about missing the Christms party you have no idea!  And you no what this means?  There will be no more D stories to write about!  I didn’t say goodbye to him when this happened becos I was so upset and I didn’t want him to see me crying.  I wonder what he thinks of all of this?  I wonder if he misses me?  I miss him so much it is killing me!

Luckily I was given a severance package.  I am being paid until July, 2010 which I am very grateful for!  If I didn’t have that, I would have to sell my house right away and who knows where we would live!  Yes, I am very worried and scared about finding another job.  There isn’t much out there at all.  I am praying the market will pick up in the next couple of months.

I applied at a temp agency.  My ex-husband actually gave me a lady’s name at this temp agency.  She got my ex’s brother’s wife a good government job here in town.  I called her yesterday and she emailed me a link to fill out a form on line which I did.  I met her on January 5th and I had to fill out more forms and she asked me questions.  We talked for awhile and I asked about the government job.  She said they are one of there biggest clients and I said I would love to get in there so hopefully something will come up soon.  She said January and February are slow months and it should pick up again in March.  Hopefully something will come up and soon!

Of course losing my job sure put a bit of a damper on Christmas this year but I tried not to let losing my job ruin my Christmas.  We had a very nice Christmas!  J enjoyed his gifts very much as did I!  We were spoiled as usual.  I put some of the pictures up on Facebook so you will be able to see them there.

We had a quiet New Years as well.  Every year we watch Dick’s ball drop!  (snicker, snicker)  LOL!  I poured myself a glass of wine just before midnight and we waited for Dick’s ball to drop.  Earlier we watched the hockey game World Juniors Canada team.  It was quiet but fun!

I have been busy lately cleaning and organizing my house.  It doesn’t look like I have done much but really I have.  There is still alot more I want to get done before I go back to work.

For those of you who are interested I have been keeping in touch with D through Facebook.  Just before Christmas I got up enough nerve to start chatting with him.  I just said “Hey D, how are you.  Just wanted to say Hi.”  There was nothing for a minute or two and so I started to get upset thinking he isn’t going to respond but he did!  He said “Hey, you surprised me.  I didn’t know Facebook had this feature.”  I told him you can chat with anyone on your friends list.  Of course I am the only one on his friends list other than the sailing group he belongs too.

Anyway we chatted for a bit.  He asked  me how I was doing and he asked me what I was doing for Christmas.  He said he was looking forward to having a few days off.  I said to him “I guess you are going to your sisters or just hanging around the house?”  He said “A bit of both.”  Then all of a sudden he said “Sorry, I’ve gotta go.  I will look for you again.”  That made me happy when he said that but why did he have to go in such a hurry?  It was only 10:30 at night!  Oh well, at least he was talking to me!

Then a couple of days before Christmas I sent him a private message wishing him a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New year.  I said It would be nice to see you again.  Maybe we could go for lunch?  He didn’t answer and I was getting pretty upset I wasn’t hearing from him. 

I even asked one of the girls I used to work with if he was there.  They told me he wasn’t there!  Finally he was back to work on Wednesday.  Then Thursday night he finally answered my message!  he told me he was away for the holidays and he wished me a Happy New Year!  Was I ever on Cloud 99!  So then I wrote him back and asked him where he went!  He wrote me back yesterday telling me he drove down to Texas with his BIL and saw a couple of Football games.  He said it was alot of driving but it was fun!

That’s all he said.  I don’t know if he was here for New Years or not but I don’t think he was.  I am going to wait a couple of days before I answer him back and I will ask him a question to get him to write me back!  Hopefully he will.

But notice how he never mentioned lunch?  I am sure he will never ask me and I guess he doesn’t like chatting becos it makes him uncomfortable.  So I think he only likes to send private messages.  If this is the only way he will keep in touch then I guess it will have to do.  At least I am hearing from him but I am quite certain I will never see him again.  This makes me very upset!    And to make matters worse.  I don’t think he really even cares if he sees me again or not.  So I am sure whatever friendship we did or do have will die eventually.

Anyway, that about keeps everyone up to date.  Wish me luck on the job front and the D front.  I would really appreciate it!  I hope everyone had a great holiday and I hope 2010 is a wonderul year for you and your family!    And I promise I will try to be a better blogger! 

I just spent all weekend painting.  My SIL and my mother helped me all weekend.  Even the boys helped, J and my nephew my SIL’s son and they did a great job!

We painted the dining/living room and hallway.  3 years ago we painted the dining/living room a peachy colour and I didn’t like the colour at all so we stopped at the hallway.  I had the itch recently to paint again becos I just couldn’t stand the colour anymore.  It took me forever to pick the colour this time becos I didn’t want to screw up again.  LOL!  I just wanted to do a beige colour and I ended up chosing a taupe/beige colour.  It is a nice nuetral colour and it is beautiful!  I absolutely love the colour!  It looks great against the white trim and my washed oak wall unit and my washed oak kitchen cabinets.  I keep admiring the colour and all our hard work of course!

I am so soar and tired from all the painting.  My back is killing me and so are my muscles.  I don’t know how I’m going to manage getting out of bed tomorrow morning.  I was going to take tomorrow but I’m going to take Friday off instead.

I have a carpet cleaning service guy coming tomorrow morning at 8:30 for an estimate.  I’m getting my whole downstairs carpet cleaned.  The carpet is badly stained from when the cat we were looking after puked all over the hall way.  I just hope it can all come out.  I will be really upset if it doesn’t.  The owner of the cat is paying for it which is nice of him. 

J is at his friends house.  J and his friend are watching a wrestling pay per view show.  My mother dropped him off after dinner.  He will be home shortly.  My mother brought her grill over and we grilled hambegers.  My barbeque died just before summer ended so I will have to buy a new one in the spring.

Tomorrow night Mom and I are going out to dinner with old friends of ours.  They are my mother’s financial advisor’s and there friend opened up a new restaurant in town.  It is a father and son team and they invited my mother and a friend of her’s as well.  These are very old friends of ours.  We were neighbors growing up.  I lvoe these guys so I am really looking forward to seeing them tomorrow night!

I’m off to bed.  I don’t know how I am going to get up in the morning.  Wish me luck!  I’ll probably be soar for a couple of days.  Hope everyone had a good weekend! 

It has been an interesting week so far.  Work is going well.  We didn’t get any mail in today being Remberance day so it was a catch up day.  It just means that we will be twice as busy tomorrow. 

D has been so friendly lately, I just don’t know what to make of it.  He stopped by on his way out yesterday and asked me if the Leafs were playing.  We talked about the game and other things for a few minutes.  V came by and wanted me to help him with the photocopier but I didn’t move.  After all, D was talking to me!  V left and he came back a couple of minutes later.  Someone else walked by and talked to D but D still didn’t move.   It was great!  D left and then I helped V with the photocopier.  Of course I was beaming all night long!

I had to cover lunch reception today and D came by again!  He asked me if I saw the game last night and then we talked about it for a few minutes.  But the darn phone rang so he left.  When he was walking away I said (as the phone was ringing) ”We will talk later.”  He turned his head and nodded yes. 

One of the girls came in while we were talking and she told me later that she said to her co-worker…  Oh, it’s so cute D is talking to Pam up at the front!   Maybe he will ask her to the Christmas dance!  Everyone is wondering why the heck he is being so friendly lately.  I have no idea but I love it!  And he signed on Facebook tonight and was on line for anout 45 mintes!  He hasn’t be on in weeks!  I couldn’t believe it!  I was shocked!  I want to so badly get up enough nerve to chat with him on FB but I just couldn’t do it.  I was shaking too much!  LOL  Tomorrow I might say to him, I saw you on line last night.  I was going to say Hi to you but I didn’t want to bother you. 

So why is D being so friendly?  Our company is trying to open a business over seas and if it is approved D will be going over there for about 3 months.  This is going to kill me when he is gone.  I will miss him so much!  It is almost %95 sure it will happen.  So I am thinking he is being friendly becos he feels he is safe.  That nothing is going to happen becos he is going away.  Or did he finally wake up?  Or did someone talk to him?  Or does he have a girlfriend now and that is why he feels he can talk to me becos he knows nothing is going to happen either.  I am so confused!  It is driving me absolutely crazy!  Especially when co-workers ar noticing and talking about us.  Don’t you find that odd that he came over to me last night on his way out and this afternoon at lunch reception and then he signed on Facebook tonight?  What the heck is going on with him!

Well, it’s late and I’m off to bed.  I will write more later.  I’m tired.  Hope everyone is having a good week!

We had a fun Halloween!  My costume this year at work was a big hit!  At first I had no clue what I was going to be but then it dawned on me the Sunday night before!  I was on the Toronto Maple Leafs website and I saw a photo of an Upset fan in the crowd and that is what I knew I was going to be.  I clicked on a link and that took me to a store where they had the mask.  It was near my office so I went during my lunch to go and pick it up.  I also got a flag to go with it!  Since I was a TML fan last year I thought it was only appropriate I’d be an Upset fan this year!  LOL

I decided I wouldn’t wear it to work becos I didn’t want to be seen right away.  I changed later on in the morning.  Everyone thought it was great and got a big kick out of it!  One of the girls took me to the presidents office to show me off!  He is a big Toronto Maple Leafs fan and he loved it!  He especially said he liked my TML pants.  They were actually J’s old TML pj’s pants that I snuck out of his drawer!  If he knew I took them he wouldn’t be too happy!  LOL!

There weren’t too many people dressed up this year.  It was an open theme or you could wear black or orange.   After lunch we played a couple of games.  There were prizes for the games but not the best costume this year.  Everyone said I would of won if there was.  And D loved it!  I got a big smile from him and he said it was really good!

After work I went to a friend/co-worker’s house for dinner.  I have never been to her place before.  She had a couple of her neighbor friends in who I had never met before.  She is from Turkey and she had a few Turkish dishes.  It was really good!  There was so much food!

On Thursday, V took another myself and another co-worker out for lunch for Indian food!  It was really good!  No, D wasn’t with us but he should of been.  V didn’t even ask him.  I’m sure D would of said “No” anyway.  V said they go to this restaurant all the time together becos D really likes it so why wouldn’t he go?  Maybe becos he is being so friendly now, he would go?  Oh well, hopefully next time!

The tricker treaters had a good weather this year.  We didn’t have too many, we only had about 35 – 40 kids.  J and I took turns answering the door while we were watching the Leafs vs Montreal game.  It was so exciting!  We were down and game back to tie the game!  We went into OT but we lost in a shoot out 5 – 4.  I hate shoot outs!  They are always so nerve racking, I can’t stand it!

We had fun seeing all the cute kids in there costumes.  We have tons of candy left over and I admit I have been eating way too much!  J is happy becos it is all the kind that he likes!  LOL!

This afternoon we took down the pumpkin lights and put the Christmas lights up!  I figured since I had the ladder out I would put them up.  It was a nice day to that anyway. 

We went to Mom’s for dinner tonight.  She had roast beef, with roasted potatoes, squash and beats.  It was delicious!  She gave us left overs to take home for dinner tomorrow night.  I love left overs!

It’s late and I am off to bed.  I really don’t want to go to work tomorrow.  Work sure has been stressful since the new way of entering invoices have started.  There are so many bugs to fix.  We need to have patience and I don’t have any patience at all.  I’m looking forward to seeing D tomorrow becos I’m sure he will stop by and talk about the game!  I hope everyone had a good Halloween!

It’s been awhile since I last posted.  Let’s see what has been going on…  Last week at work was a slow week so we were able to get caught up on everything.  It is such a great feeling since we were behind for so long.  The past couple of days have been really busy so now we are behind again.  We were short a girl today so that doesn’t help.  Hopefully next week we can get caught up again.

I can’t get over how friendly D is being lately!  He comes over almost every day to talk to me now!  This has been going on for a few weeks now!  Last Friday night on his way out he stopped by and said to me “Are you going to watch the game tomorrow night?”  I was going out with a few of the girls form work to Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls.  I didn’t want to tell him I wasn’t going to watch the game becos then he knew I would be out and he would probably wonder if I had a date.  He probably thinks I sit home alone every night all by myself.  So I said to him “No, I’m not.”  He said  “Why aren’t you watching the game?”  I couldn’t believe he asked me again!  I didn’t know what to say so I hesitated and said “I’m going out.” and he just looked at me and said “Oh…” very quietly.  I didn’t tell him I was going to the casino with the girls.  I have him wondering now, I think.

Last Thursday night he was working late and I stopped by on my way out to talk to him.  I managed to get up enough nerve to go into his office and we had a good talk!  we talked about work and the economy and he mentioned his sister and brother-in-law.  They are on a road trip going to see their daughter (his neice) he keeps on talking about.  This is his neice that plays the piano, who always did concerts.  She moved out to Mississippi and her parents are on there way to see her.  Then his blackberry went off and he said  “Infact….”  he read his message and he kind of laughed and said “Oh, she wants me to call her.”  Well, with that I thought of course it was his girlfriend calling him.  I should of said “Who wants you to call you?” but I didn’t think of it at the time of course.  So I said  “OK, don’t work too hard, see you tomorrow and left.” 

Of course I was upset about it the whole night and I was bound and determined to find out who called him on his blackberry the next day.  I was hoping he would come on by Friday so I could talk to him and he did!  He said “The Leafs play Vancouver tomorrow night?”  So I said  “Yes, we do.” and we started talking about the game.  He was going to leave so I said “So did you call your neice back after I left last night?”  He said “Actually, it was my sister.”  He said she called him becos he asked her to buy him a T-shirt from there so she wanted to know what size and what colour.  Aren’t I a little sneak?  that might of been a little bold for me to ask but I just had to find know who called him! 

Then our receptionist came by and saw us talking together and gave me that look!  She talked to us for a couple of minutes and then she left and so did D.  I went over to our receptionist and said “He is being so friendly lately, I don’t understand it!”  I told her he was talking to me about his sister and BIL and she told me that they are his whole life!  So I am thinking he is starting to finally open up to me!

He is coming over asking me “Are you going to watch the game tonight?”  And the next day he will say “Did you watch the game last night?”  If he hasn’t heard the score he will say  “What was the score?”  The past couple of years he said to me “I don’t start watching hockey until January.”  I took that as slap in the face like “No way am I going to talk to you about hockey.”  Why now is he being so friendly?

It’s either two things.  One… becos he is going away with a co-worker to another country to set up business there for a few weeks maybe 6 weeks or so!  I am going to miss him so much, I don’t know how I am going to get through this.  Or two… he has a girlfriend who is making him feel this way.  He is different.  He is acting different.  He is not shy at all around me.  He acts like he has more confidence.

I heard him on his blackberry tonight.  He stayed late and I heard him say ”I am freed up now.  Is it ok to come over?  OK, I will be there in a bit.”  I am sure he said it loud enough so I could hear.  I sure wish I new where he was going and who he was going to see.  But why would he waste his time talking to me?  He is giving me false hope.  Is he only being friendly becos he is going away and he is safe?  Or has he finally woken up after 4 years?  Did someone say something to him?  This whole thing is driving me crazy! 

All my co-workers are wondering wht has gotten into him too.  They are all wondering what is going on!  When they walk by and see us talking I get this big smile on their face!  Of course D has his back turned so he can’t see.  LOL!   I am wondering if he gets teased about me like I get teased about him. 

So what do you think?  Do you think D is finally waking up?  Any advice I would greatly appreciate!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend!  Saturday afternoon we went to the mall.  We had our usual Mr. Sub for lunch.  I looked around for winter pants.  I have gained about 10 lbs and I can’t fit into last years pants.  I am not happy about it at all.  I didn’t even find anything.  I really wasn’t in the mood to look around.   It’s no fun shopping like that.

We went back home and I had a cup of tea.  Later on I drove J to work.  I came home and I ordered pizza and watched the hockey game.  We lost to the Pittsburg Penguins 5 – 2.  I was not happy. 

Sunday I went to the mall again looking for pants and still didn’t find any.  But I did find myself a nice black leather purse at the luggage store on sale for $29.99!  It even has a special pocket just for your cell phone!  It is really nice and it’s just what I was looking for. 

 This afternoon I tidied up the house.  I did two loads of laundry and I cleaned the bathrooms.  J cut the back lawn for the last time this year and we put the chairs and everything away.  I also put up our little pumpkin lights over the door with J’s help.  We just have to get a pumpkin still. 

We went to Mom’s tonight for our Thanksgiving dinner.  My SIL (once removed) was there with my nephew David.  We haven’t seen much of them this summer so it was nice to see them.  My aunt was also there and we had a nice visit.  Mom’s turkey dinner was delicious as always!  I didn’t over eat too much.  I even had a little tiny piece of apple pie!  I could of had a whole piece but I was being good! 

After dinner J put the game on in the living room.  The Leafs played against New York Rangers and lost 7 – 2!  WTF is the matter with the Leafs?  They haven’t won a game yet!  I am not giving up on my Leafs though, after all I am an optimist remember!  They have to start playing better!

It’s back to work tomorrow.  It was so nice sleeping in for three days!  It’s going to be hard to get up in the morning.  I hope it is a good week!  I hope you have a good week too!

It’s been awhile since I have updated.  Let’s see what has been going on.  I was sick all last weekend.  I was in bed all day Saturday.  I slept the whole day.  I’m not sure what exactly was wrong with me.  It could of been a migraine but I am not sure it was becos I have had alot worse than that.  The pain wasn’t bad but I felt weird.  I felt kind of nautious too.  It could of been a touch of the flue or it could of been pure exhaustion.  All I wanted to do was just sleep all day which is exactly what I did.  

I went out to dinner with a friend last Friday night.  We went to our usual restaurant.  We hadn’t seen each other for a couple of month’s and we had a good time cathing up over a glass of wine!  I hope it wasn’t the glass of wine I had that triggered my migraine if that is what I had. 

I sitll didn’t feel well on Sunday.  I didn’t even get dressed, it was a PJ day and I just rested as much as possible.  J left in the morning with his friend to go to the Toronto Blue Jay game and about 4:00 pm he called me and the boys were at the ACC buying tickets to the Toronto Maple Leafs game that night!  J and his friend had a great day! 

I did manage to tidy up the house and I did a load of laundry but that was about all I could do.  If I didn’t feel any better on Monday I would of called in sick but I felt ok so I went to work.  I’m still not feel 100% today.  I have had about 5 people come up to me this morning and say to me “Are you feeling ok?  You don’t look too good.”  I told them I was just feeling still kind of wishy washy from the weekend.  Hopefully I will feel and look better tomorrow.

Work is still very busy.  It’s hard to get caught up when you are so busy all the time.  It’s so frustrating.  Apparently we are getting a new and faster scanner.  It is just for our department so it should help us alot! 

This weekend I felt much better.  We went to the mall yesterday and treated ourselves to our usual Mr. Sub for lunch.  I paid some bills.  We are looking for a new fleece jacket for J but didn’t find one he likes.   J has grown alot lately so we have to buy him a larger size shirts.  We came home and J had to get ready to go to work.  After I dropped him off at work I went to Home Depot to look at paint colour for my living room/dining room.  I am looking at just a nice soft beige colour.  I picked up quite q few swatches but now I am confused!  There are too many to chose from and it’s pissing me off!  LOL!

I watched the hockey game the Leafs vs Washington and we got our *ss kicked!  It definately wasn’t a good game.  I was really disappointed in the Leafs.  Today I did two loads of laundry, tidied up the house and wash the front hall floor and the washroom floors.  I know it doesn’t sound like much but I think I over did it as I am in a lot of pain right now.  The muscles in my legs are killing me.  I hope I feel better in the morning.

J went to a movie this afternoon with his father, step brother and sister.  They saw the 3D movie Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs.  J really enjoyed it.  Later on we went to Mom ’s for dinner.  She cooked a delicious roast beef dinner.  My aunt was also there and we had a nice visit.

After dinner I dropped J off at his friends house.  They were watching a wrestling pay per view show and played some video games after. 

Tomorrow is another Monday.  I really wish the weekends wouldn’t go by so fast.  Of course the only good thing about going to work is seeing D.  He continues to be friendly.  I love it when he says Goodnight on his way out.  Sometimes he does, sometimes he doesn’t.  He has even come in and talk to me a few times!  It really makes my day when he does!  If only he knew!

It’s late and I’m off to bed.  I’m wondering how many people even read me anymore?

It has been a nice relaxing weekend.  I really didn’t do much at all.  Yesterday we went to the mall and I got my eye makeup remover that I needed at the Bay.  I picked up some pictures I ordered of Vegas at Black’s for my aunt and my mother.  We were anxious to go to Mr. Sub for lunch to thank the Mr. Sub guy for the TML tickets and told him what a great time we had!

After the mall we went to Benjamin Moore to look at paint chips.  I am itching to paint my living room and dining room again.  I painted it about 3 years ago and I still don’t like the colour.  It is a peachy colour and I just want a nice warm beige colour, not too dark and not too light.  I have been looking at paint chips all weekend and I still can’t decide.  I need an interior decorator to come in and do it all for me!  I am so lousy at this!  LOL!

J and I ordered pizza and watched the Leafs vs Philadelphia Flyers game.  It was another great game and we won 5 – 4!  We also watched the game on friday night against the Pittsburg Penguins and we won that game too 4 – 3!  The Leafs are on fire!  Hopefully they can keep it up all season!   

This afternoon I did the usual laundry and tidied up the house.  I also cleaned the dowstairs bathroom.  We went to Mom’s for dinner.  She cooked spare ribs and they were delicious.  My barbeque died a couple of weeks ago.  We thought we just ran out of gas so we took it to get refilled but it still wouldn’t work.  It is the burners that died.  I really do miss our barbeques, the weather has been so nice too!  Mom and I are looking at new barbeques hoping we will be able to find one on sale soon.  If not we will get a new one next spring.

I drove J to his friends house after dinner.  The boys wanted to watch a pay perview wrestling show.  After the show they were going to play video games.  It is almost 1 a.m. and J still isn’t home yet!  It is a good thing he doesn’t have school tomorrow or I wouldn’t let him be out so late on a school night.  He should be home shortly.

I watched the Emmy’s tonight.  I don’t watch half of the shows that won so I didn’t know the actors or actresses.  Anyway, it’s way late and J just got home.  Such the life of a teenager.  I’m going to bed.  I hope everyone had a good weeked!
