Having your great first vacation after the separation, after healing and after closure. Mine was to Montreal, and it was amazing. Made feel free, strong and independent. Fun time.

It was when the Pens won a couple years ago. We knew some of the Pens management staff and got invited to a luncheon where the guys in white gloves brought Lord Stanley in and placed it on a table near ours and i could touch it and take as many pictures with it as i wanted. I was amazed at how tiny the names where on it. You could barely make them out. I also was amazed at how heavy it is and more so how it seems to be so light weight when the winning players lift it over their heads after winning it. Yeah, it was a pretty terrific memory.

My son plays ice hockey. One year i managed the team and got to work with Lemieux who Coached an older team (His son was on it.). I also got to meet Mark Recchi whose son played mine a few times in scrimmages.

I use to live hockey but have been so screwed up the past year from my marriage that ive let my interests die. Thanks for reminding me of a great experience in my life.

sadwithouthim,no problem and thank you for sharing. Something you might not know is that there are many more bands with previous winners etched on them kept at the Hockey Hall of Fame,and they're kept in a big vault with the big old fashioned fly wheel doors.Anyway I'm sorry to hear things have been a little rough for you lately.Maybe it's time to take a little step towards revisiting some of these things that brought you happiness.Take care.

I was aware of that. It wasn't that long ago i dont think that they added a new band onto the cup.

You are right....maybe by the start of the new season, my mind will be less occupied on my marriage.

Are you from Toronto? Have you been to the Hockey Hall of Fame?

Originally from small town in Nova Scotia,but have lived in Toronto for quite a few years.Actually,I was at Hockey Hall this past week with my son,as he's a big Leafs fan himself and wanted to pick up some things to bring home to his boys.Hockey indoctrination starts early in Canada!

Showing up to work early and finishing the lion's share of it by the time you normally arrive.

>Today, I cooked for the first time since stbxh dumped me and kicked me out.

A seven layer chicken quesadilla. Sweet peppers, onions, tomatoes, shredded chicken, fiesta blend cheese, in a creamy chipotle sauce.


Cooking has always been a passion for me, so that was something that made me happy today.


>I also finished my baby's nursery yesterday.

omg, that sounds so good! i haven't cooked in weeks!

so since the kids are gone and i'm home alone, i've been working naked. it's not necessarily attractive, but i do it because i can (i work from home) and when a friend calls or texts and asks what i'm doing and i say i'm working....nekked! it makes me giggle! i need all the giggles i can get. plus it creates way less laundry.
