little walk, little hockey

We had a pretty crappy summer but now that school has started and the kids are
confined indoors all day, the weather is playing them quite a joke by being beautiful.

Although working at home gives me alot of freedom, living in a small town and working at home seems to make clients think that you are always available. Yesterday I had a client that was supposed to come over, well.. she then changed her mind.. and decided she would come today.. It was beautiful out.. I was just hankering to get out of here. She finally showed up at close to 2 o'clock. Well, at least she paid me.

Finally left, took a walk and brought my camera. They say you should do about 30 minutes of walking a day to stay fit.. well.. I've done my weeks worth! I was out for 2 1/2 hours. It was well worth it, we probably don't have many more of these nice days left.

Today's picture:


Sylvain and I had a late supper tonight in front of the TV set so he could watch the World Cup Hockey Game. Regular hockey is on strike, so all the sports channels are showing this. Canada won.

Talking about hockey, it always make me laugh... people like one team more than another.. hate certain teams... people, listen up! ... the players move around.. this is not like in the olden times when you watched the Montreal Canadians.. and they actually came from Montreal.
My hubby is like this.. he likes certain teams and not others. I keep on telling him.. so you like their shirts.. because the guy you like now played on a team you hated last year.

Anyways.. I watch a bit with him because he enjoys it.. I 'm not a huge sports fan.. though I admit to watching the Stanley cup finals because they are exciting. People from here "LOVE" hockey. What can you expect when half the year feels just like winter. We have a junior team. The spare goalee for Canada (Luongo) used to play for our junior team. (Again, he is not from here ..lol! but that doesn't matter, he wore the right shirt)

Our local minor league hockey team plays nearby in Hershey. We used to be affiliated with the Philadelphia Flyers. When that affiliation expired, Hershey paired up with the Colorado Avalanche. Before that, Quebec/Colorado's minor league team was the Cornwall Aces, our bitter, hated rivals. In one transaction, our hated enemies became our heroes. Guys we used to jeer, now we cheer. Weird, eh?

I think it's a hockey thing.
