Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.But I am feeling a tad upbeat.I had a really busy day of errand running and checking up on a friend.So,it was a very good day and I managed to get what I had to do done.
My mixed emotions are the result of last night's hockey game.The Buffalo Sabres lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 4-1.It was their first loss in regulation this season.Yes,it was disappointing and a heartbreaker but tonight,they redeemed themselves.They beat the New York Rangers in overtime by a score of 4-3.But again,as with the Boston Bruins game a few nights ago,I was a little worried when the Rangers dominated most of the game.Buffalo did score first but the Rangers scored three goals when the Sabres made too many costly mistakes in the form of costly penalties and had the lead of 3-1 for most of the game until Daniel Briere scored to make it 3-2.Jason Pominville would tie the game in the third period to force an overtime.Daniel Breire would score the winner in overtime.Again,this game was another nail biter to say the least.But I am hoping that the Sabres will work on not making too many costly mistakes in a game,which can motivate the opponent to dominate and score goals on you.This is also one for the record books.They now have 8 consecutive road wins at the start of a season,breaking records held and shared by Detroit(2005)Philadelphia(1985) and Toronto(1940) for that category.But still,despite Saturday night's loss,they have the best record in the league at the moment.Their next game is Friday the 10th at home against the Florida Panthers.They're going to need the rest after that topsy-turvy playing schedule.
Last night,I sang for my friends and that went great.I actually tried three new songs.One by Kenny Chesney and two by Frank Sinatra.They all loved it.It was a great night and I had a great time.I left the place last night with a smile on my face.
Today,I managed to check up on a friend of mine and his live in girlfriend and they are doing good.They informed me that they were going to spend a week at her parents house and I asked them if they would keep me informed.They said they will.I also manged to do some shopping for my mom and I also got some shopping done myself for personal reasons.The day went by good.I managed to get a lot done and everything worked out for the better.I am now at home relaxing and I am glad.
Tomorrow is my appointment with my anger management counselor and I am hoping that goes well.Wednesday is my appointment with my counselor over at a Sexual Abuse Support Center here in my hometown and I am also hoping that goes well.I am also eventually hoping to attend that support group at the church.I again hope that this also works out.
I also managed to listen to the rest of that Big Blue Marble album last night and it was great.The music brought me back to my childhood when I used to watch the show every Saturday morning on an independant syndicated TV channel in my area.Again,the day went well and nothing negative to write home about(so to speak)and though I am feeling mixed emotions,I am still feeling a tad upbeat after posting all of this.
