My fiancé sounded so tired when he called me last night even though his day had just got started. He had been at work for only two hours yet he had already worked hard from the moment he arrived and was already exhausted with two-thirds of the day yet in front of him. And whenever he’s like that, it always prompts me to ask where his colleagues are, and I nailed it on the head: his boss wasn’t there.

His boss wasn’t there because he went out to look for lead test kits to be used at the workplace. There are only three of them in his maintenance department and when the bossman is out, only two of them are left and they usually have to work their butts off to keep the factory running. And when the boss isn’t there, my fiancé is in charge, the go-to guy, creating even more pressure for him. Had it been that his other co-worker was also absent, my fiancé would have been the only guy and might have passed out from exhaustion! LOL. Nah, he’s a tough guy and rain or shine, he’s always on top of things and in complete control of the situation. You go, boy! (“,)

Those are the two words that I heard from my fiance’ as soon as I picked up my cellphone and said “hello”. LOL. What he meant was “work galore”. He refers to those jobs that he needs to do at work as tigers and when there are a lot of things to accomplish and needs to be done, then it’s tigers galore. I really find that funny and we often kid about that actually.

His day is just starting in his part of the world now, his Thursday to be exact while mine is about to end. He only called to inform me how his day is starting and of course, to say good night. His day isn’t complete without saying good night to me so just imagine the phone calls he’s done from day 1 up to now. He never missed a day! Phone calls galore! Hehe.

I was in the middle of reading alli reviews yesterday morning for my mom who has gained weight recently. Around 11 o’clock my phone rang. I was surprised to see that it was my fiancé calling. He should have already been in bed on his side of the world. We had stopped chatting at around 8 o’clock because he was tired from his day’s work and needed to hit the sack.

An idea came to my mind instantly as soon as I saw it was him and answered: I figured he had got called in to work again and I wasn’t wrong. He was on his cell phone and on the road to work. He just called to inform me which he always does. He always lets me know his whereabouts because he doesn’t want me to worry. That’s how sweet he is! (“,)

But gladly not in the middle of the night but in the middle of our conversation. Yes, my fiance’ was called in at work again while we were talking yesterday my morning which is around his 7:30 in the evening because there was a problem at work. He’s on call 24 hours every other week and after a while, that was his first call again.

Good thing it wasn’t in the middle of the night when he’s already enjoying la la land but well, he haven’t had his dinner yet because he was busy talking to me. And more often than not, he takes his dinner after we talked. But knowing my fiance’ to be tough and always on the go, those call ins are pieces of cake for him. Right, Honey? (“,)
