WELL, I DO APOLOGIZE FOR NOT UPDATING MY BLOG THE PAST MONTH. ANYWAY, I WANT TO UPDATE ALL OF YOU ON SEVERAL THINGS SO HERE IT GOES:
WORK UPDATE:
MANY OF YOU MIGHT KNOW THAT GAME CRAZY CLOSED OVER 200 STORES NATION WIDE. SINCE THIS IS PART OF MY COMPANY MY DISTRICT WAS AFFECTED SO I LOSS MY DM DUE TO CUTBACKS IN UPPER MANAGEMENT. I DID TALK TO HIM THIS PAST WEEK AND HE IS DISAPPOINTED BUT KNOWS THINGS WILL WORK OUT FOR HIM. I HAVE A NEW DM THAT I JUST MET ON WEDNESDAY SO IT WILL BE INTERESTING WORKING WITH MY THIRD DM IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR. THERE WAS A NATIONAL CONFERENCE CALL FOR HOLLYWOOD VIDEO ON TUESDAY WHICH ANNOUNCED THAT GAME CRAZY STORES CLOSING. OUR COMPANY IS TALKING ABOUT CHANGES SOON COMING SO I HOPE THIS WILL MAKE OUR COMPANY STRONGER. HONESTLY, I AM NOT VERY OPTIMISTIC BUT REMAIN HOPEFUL. BLOCKBUSTER IS CLOSING OVER 950 STORES OVER THE NEXT YEAR SO OUR BUSINESS IS IN DESPERATE NEED TO MAKE SOME MAJOR CHANGES IF WE ARE GOING TO COMPETE IN THIS EVER CHANGING BUSINESS…..
I AM ALSO GOING THROUGH SOME STAFF CHANGES SO I WILL BE HIRING SOME NEW HELP IN THE NEAR FUTURE. CHANGE IS GOOD!! IT REALLY IS TIME FOR A SOME POSITIVE CHANGES!!
SPORTING NEWS AND MY COMMENTS:
THE NFL SEASON IS HERE AND MY STEELERS ARE 1-2. NOT A GOOD START BUT IT SEEMS EVERY YEAR THE STEELERS AT ONE POINT HAVE A SLIGHT SLIDE BEFORE A NICE WINNING STREAK. I HOPE THE WINNING STREAK IS SOON. THEY PLAY THE CHARGERS SUNDAY AND THAT WILL BE A TOUGH GAME.
THE REDSOX ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS AND WILL FACE OFF AGAINST THE ANGELS NEXT WEEK. EVERYBODY SEEMS TO HAVE THE SOX PLAYING THE YANKEES IN THE ALCS. NOBODY GIVES THE ANGELS OR TIGERS OR POSSIBLE TWINS OF DOING ANYTHING IN THE PLAYOFFS. UNFORTUNATELY, I HAD THE REDSOX VIS THE CUBS IN THE WORLD SERIES BUT THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN THIS YEAR. REDSOX NATION I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THE ANGELS SERIES. SOMETHING IS IN THE AIR AND I DO NOT LIKE IT. MY HEART IS GOING WITH THE REDSOX BUT I HAVE A FEAR THEY WILL LOOSE THIS SERIES. LIKE EVERYONE ELSE I AM WANTING TO SEE THE SOX VIS YANKEES BUT I DO NOT THINK IT WILL HAPPEN. I SEE AN UPSET NEXT WEEK. I HOPE NOT THE SOX………..WE WILL SEE………
THE NATIONAL LEAGUE I SEE THE PHILLIES TAKING ON THE DODGERS WHEN IT IS SAID AND DONE. I REALLY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE NATIONAL LEAGUE….LOL…………MAYBE THE ROCKIES WILL BE THERE………..WE WILL SEE……
THE BRUINS ARE BACK!!
PERSONAL UPDATE:
PAM WENT TO MINNESOTA TO VISIT FAMILY AND STAYED WITH HER PARENTS FOR A WEEK. SHE WENT TO SEE HER COUSIN GET MARRIED AND HAD A GREAT TIME. UNFORTUNATELY, I HAD TO WORK DURING THE WEEK AS PAM WENT TO MINNESOTA DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY VACATION TIME WILL BE A FULL WEEK AS OF NEXT WEEK. I AM SCHEDULED TO TAKE A WEEK OFF IN NOVEMBER BUT DUE TO STAFF CHANGES I DO NOT KNOW IF I WILL BE ABLE TOO. MIGHT HAVE TO WAIT FOR A BIT.
BEEN BACK BOWLING A MONTH NOW AND MY AVERAGE WENT STARTED AT 178 WHEN I FINISHED LAST SEASON. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS OF BOWLING VERY WELL MY AVERAGE JUMPED TO A 199. LAST WEEK I WAS NOT AS GOOD AS I HAVE BEEN SO IT IS DROPPED DOWN TO A 194. OUR TEAM HAS BEEN DOING BETTER THE PAST TWO WEEKS AND WE GOT TO SEE OUR TEAM CAPTAIN, JOHN, BOWL A 289!! HE JUST MISSED A 300…….WOW!! AWESOME JOB BUD!! IT IS FUN AND I ENJOY BOWLING FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW.
WE HAVE BEEN IN OUR NEW PLACE NOW FOR ALMOST THREE MONTHS. WE STILL HAVE BOXES WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH BUT THERE IS NO RUSH….LOL………WE DO HAVE OUR FRIEND, ROBERTA, COMING FROM FLORIDA TO SPEND TIME WITH US NEXT WEEK SO WE LOOK FORWARD TO IT. IT HAS BEEN 14 YEARS SINCE LEAVING FLORIDA BUT OUR FRIENDSHIP HAS LASTED OVER THE YEARS. LOOK FORWARD TO SOME GREAT CHATS AND GOOD TIMES COMING NEXT WEEK.
