~ Twenty Two and Counting ~
Yeap, less then 24 hours and my boys begin the '07-'08 season. I've been watching other teams play the last couple of days and let me say I think I drooled. Not over the guys on the ice, but in anticipation that my boys will be playing soon. The off season was waaaaaaaaay to long. Well, maybe not for you, but for me it was! After finishing number 1 in the league last year there is lots of speculation by the sports writers of the world. They are thinking we won't even make the playoffs, and if we do it will be a long shot and by the skin of our teeth. Sure we lost 2 guys, very important guys, but that is an insult to the players still here. They have grown and matured and I have faith they will still lay it on the line for each other. I've seen guys step up in the preseason and I can't imagine they won't when it counts. It is, remember, a TEAM sport. We open the season playing the NY Islanders. We played them in the first round of the playoffs last year. We won the series 4 games -1. They too have lost players. More then 2 of them. We'll see how it goes on the ice. Humor me and take a guess on whether we win or not. Paalease? :::grin:::
Today was a great day. After work I met up with my son and his girlfriend for dinner. He had called earlier in the week and it was a 'go' today. We went to Applebee's and it was great. The food was good, but it was wonderful spending time with them. It's been way to long and I miss them. I miss him. Even when he was in the old apartment with the other guys I would see him a couple times a week. Either he needed to do laundry or he needed to get away from them. Down time if you will. Now he's happy, very happy and has laundry facilities there. I'm very happy for both of them, but I miss him. Talking on the phone is not the same. For those of you that have your children far away I feel for you. I do. He's not too far, but our schedules are the opposite so it is rare we are both available at the same time. I can't imagine if he was hours away.
I talked to my brother in law today, and my sister is 'so so'. His exact words. They extended the antibiotics for another 7 days and she goes back to the Dr a week from tomorrow. Three weeks, at least, without treatments. I hope things do get better so she can get back on track. I am leaving work early tomorrow. I have a surplus of those 2 hour passes I told you about previously and I decided I will use one tomorrow. I may just take a ride over and visit with her for a bit. Trying to think of something good to take her. Any suggestions?
I'm off to try and catch up on alerts. It seems JLand was extremely busy today.
Hugs
