Naked pens

May 9th, 2008

I forgot to mention that my friend/co-worker went to Los Vegas last week and on Tuesday she brought me back a little souvineer.  It is a pen with two guys on it (wearing shorts) and when you turn it upside down they become naked!  LOL!  I had one of these pens a couple of years ago but it was stolen right out of my desk.  It was really funny and a good joke between our group.

When my friend saw this in Vegas she had to get me a new one!  Yesterday, someone told A (the young guy) about my pen and he came over and grabbed it from me.  V was walking by and A called him over and they had a good laugh about it.  V went right over to D and showed him!  I just about died! 

V said “Look at Pam’s pen!”  D said “Oh ya, I saw those before.”  V said “Don’t take it personally, it’s a joke.”  And they had a good laugh about it.  It was funny but a bit embarrassing.

I had to cover reception at lunch today and D walked by with A to go for lunch and I got the biggest smile from D!  Then I realized why he was smiling like that!  LOL!  It will be interesting to see is D is like this on Monday.  V took my pen home to show his wife.  He better not lose it, I better get it back on Monday! 

Tomorrow we have our usual errands to do.  We will go to the mall and treat ourselves to Mr. Sub for lunch.  I have to pick up the pants for J I ordered from the catalogue.  I have to get my mother something for Mother’s Day.  Not sure what though.  I usually get her flowers becos her birthday is next week. 

I’m not sure what we are doing for Mother’s Day.  I would like to have a barbeque but I think it’s going to rain.  I sure hope not.  Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Interesting week

May 8th, 2008

It has been an interesting week.  We had our group meeting Tuesday morning and it was great!  It was one of the best meetings we have had.  It was more of a b*itch session than a meeting!  We are all so frustrated with our system always being slow and other things and we all had to vent!  I think we have scared our new boss.  LOL!  It felt good to get everything off our chests but we don’t know if anything will come of it.  We are suppose to be getting a new system but they promised us this weeks ago and still nothing.  The I. T. dept. is still testing it.  Hopefully in a couple of weeks it will be ready.  Please give me patience!

J is doing really well and getting better!  He hasn’t had any more fevers, thank goodness!  He does get tired but I’m sure he will feel like this for awhile.  We went to get his blood tested on Monday and we went to the Dr. Tuesday after work and everything is up so that is great news!  We still have a nurse come in once a day and hopefully J will have only one more week of that.

Remember me talking about V at work?  He comes over to me every day asking how J is.  Yesterday he asked me out to lunch along with another co-worker.  No, not D…  Someone else in the I. T. dept.  I like him, he is a really nice guy.  Alot younger though.  V is Indian so the three of us we went for Indian food.  I have been there before with the girls.  It was really nice and very interesting!  V is a really nice man and yes he is married.  It was fun and we had a good time.   

There has been nothing much going on with D.  He came into the kitchen yesterday to get a pop when I was making my tea.  He just said “Hi Pam!  How are you?”  I said “Ok, how are you?”  (Not very enthusiatically)  He said “Good.”  And that was it.  He still hasn’t asked me how J is so I’m still mad at him and not talking to him. 

I know he isn’t Good though.  He hasn’t been feeling well the past couple of weeks.  His allergies are really bothering him.  V told me this and he said that the Dr. gave him a puffer.  I can hear him coughing and sneezing all day.  Why wouldn’t D tell me this when I asked him how he was?  I was kind of expecting him to but he didn’t.  Doesn’t matter anyway, if he doesn’t ask me how J is why should I care how he feels?

Well it’s late and I’m off to bed.  The weekend is almost here and I can’t wait!  Hope everyone is having a good week! 

Weigh in day

May 5th, 2008

We didn’t get much mail in today but we have alot of other work to keep up busy.  I managed to get caught up on some things but not everything.  I will try again tomorrow.

At Weight Watchers today I lost point 4 so I have lost the 1.4 lb that I gained 2 weeks ago!  I now weigh 137.2 and my goal weight is 137 and I am happy about that!  I have been thinking of getting my exercise ball out that is in the basement and try it.  Hopefully this will help get rid of my tummy and some off my butt and thighs.  I bought the ball months ago and I haven’t even used it yet!  Shame on me!  I know I am lazy.  I will really try to bring the ball up and start using it.  I hope it will help!

Not much on D to report today.  He passed by me in the hall on the way out to lunch.  I was talking to some co-workers and had to move out of his way to let him by but there was no eye contact.  He stopped by A’s (the young guy) desk to talk to him for a minute.  D had his blazer with him and it looked to me like he was meeting someone for lunch.  He seemed kind of in a hurry too.  I saw him later pass by in the hall and that’s it.  Hopefully something will happen tomorrow.

Right now I am waiting for J to come home from his wrestling show at the Air Canada Centre.  He just called from his cell phone to say they were on there way.  He is recording the show as it is on TV too.  He said it was a great show and he really enjoyed it!  so how was your Monday?

Short weekend

May 4th, 2008

I honestly don’t know where the weekend went.  It went by way too fast for me and I didn’t even really do anything.  It’s not as if I had a weekend full of fun things to do.

I did enjoy watching the Montreal and Philadelphia game last night even though Montreal lost and is out of the playoffs.  They tied the game so it was pretty exciting but unfortunately they lost.  I think I will be cheering for Pittsburg now. 

J really enjoyed his wrestling show last night with his friend and he is off again tomorrow night with him to the Air Canada Centre to another wrestling show.  He is so excited about this one!

Today I did a couple of loads of laundry and ironing and tidied up the house.  The nurse came at 4:00 pm.  She disconnected J so he could have a shower and then she changed all the dressing and cleaned it all up for him.  She was here a good hour and then we left to go to Mom’s for dinner.

Mom cooked roast beef (sirloin) with roasted potatoes, cauliflower and cheese sauce and it was delicious!  My mother had a safe trip home from Florida and she had a great time!  I’m so glad she went, she seems so much more relaxed.  She has a wonderful tan too!  She has already booked for next year so I really hope I get to go!

Mom is going to take J to the lab tomorrow after school to get his blood tested for me since the lab was closed on Friday when I went.  I’m glad Mom is back and can take him for me so I don’t have to take time off work to do it.  J has a Dr’s appt on Tuesday (to get the blood results) which I’m sure I will have to reschedule for later on in the week. 

I’m sure tomorrow I will be busy at work.  There are a couple of things I need to get caught up on.  It will be interesting to see if I lost anything at WW.  Last week I lost 1 lb.  I gained 1.4 the week before so I was happy to lose the 1 lb.  I now weigh 137.6.  I am finding it very hard to lose anything.  I just stay around my goal weight so I am a bit frustrated.

It will be interesting to see D’s reaction this week.  I’m still going to play it cool around him but if he comes up to me I will talk to him.  Lets see what he does.  Hope everyone had a good weekend!
