John - I wish she would not have shared those thoughts with you. But take assurance that her exH is her backup man and you are her main love muffin man.
Canada plays Norway tonight in mens hockey. I think that I read that Canada is favored to get the gold.
My kids and I went to a local hockey game yesterday as part of the cub scouts/girl scouts. There was a nice Hockey 101 introduction before the game for the kids (and myself). It was very interesting to learn how the ice is put on and taken off. The guy giving the introduction was extremely funny. He was talking about how for Disney on Ice they make the ice thicker which results in making it wetter for a pretty appearance, but that for hockey they want it rock hard since it is going to be covered with teeth and blood! It is amazing how much padding and armor a hockey player has to wear. They are like knights in armor on ice.
The game was enjoyable even though our team (Portland Winterhawks) blew a 2 point lead in the 3rd period and lost to the Moose Jaw Warriors. It is a league with young fiesty players between 16-20 years old and some of the Canadian cities in it are but blips on the map.
