Slim chance at post season.

A looong week. I was very tired Friday night… I’ve started doing some management tasks this week. I conducted several staff reviews. It is a lot harder than I ever would have thought. I want to be constructive but firm, direct but open… it is quite a challenge. I do enjoy this new level of responsibility and all the tasks that have accompanied it. I also had my work review as well. It went very well. We have a new grading system for our reviews, the majority of my marks were ‘above average’ which is good. I’m still obviously very green in my new role and learning a lot. So to already be considered as competent is reassuring.

The Sabres are making all the effort they can to make me throw something through the TV set… they are playing ‘must win’ games to have any shot at making the playoffs but are still finding ways to lose. They pretty much killed their chances to see the post-season with two losses in games they were winning in the third by 3-1 to Montreal and Ottawa. In both games they found a way to lose. It is sad. *Choke* It just shows the lack of leadership this team has and that there are still missing some components to make a complete team. Maybe next year? Maybe not if management stays the same.

In other news… B. and I have decided to start looking for a new home. While we like our little corner of Brampton, we want to have a place that we found together. Additionally, the commute here is killing my soul slowly one drive at a time. To make the house in Brampton what we want would also cost far more than the home would ever sell for in this location. So… we are thinking of relocating to Bolton! We have already found a house we like, hopefully it will still be available when we are ready to sell the Brampton home. Exciting news. More details to follow.
