It's Hockey Time – GO LEAFS!

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?
