Magic and Munchkins
By Leighton | May 10, 2009
Well, this week has been nice, since I was able to get caught up with all of my clients except one now, so I’m not so stressed out from work, and also because I got to go over to Paul’s house twice, once on Wednesday to play Age of Empires 2 (Sharon actually liked it!) and then again on Friday night to play Magic: The Gathering and Munchkins with some of my friends who I haven’t seen in a while. Joe Wasden, Justin Williamson and his girlfriend, Chris Lambert, and Ben Wilsterman all came to Paul’s and we had a lot of fun. I ended up winning both games, though the first one was a team game so 3 of us won that one. It reminded me of old times, and I wish we could do it more often. Now that summer is here we are going to try to do things every week with as many people who can come. Sharon is being a good sport even though she is often times bored (and my friends are usually too preoccupied with cards to be polite and talk to her haha). I made it up to her on Saturday when we went to the St. George park by the Library to have a nice picnik together. Sharon made some delicious sandwiches and devilled eggs and we also had yougurt and strawberries. It was an excellent lunch. Some cute kids came and made friends with us, we shared our lunch and bubbles with them and they shared their laughter and smiles with us, both parties profiting thereby. Sharon had a lovely little bird leave a lovely little doodoo on her head, so I guess she was really lucky that day. After playing in the water there at the park and taking lots of pictures, we went over to the Red Cliffs Mall to do some shopping. Sharon was really mad at me for not taking her there sooner (I thought I had), because there are some stores there she really liked but she didn’t know they were there til yesterday. We bought some shirts at Hollister and some more shirts at American Eagle. It was a lot of fun and we came home feeling tired but happy.
Sharon made some Bak Kut Teh for dinner while I weed-eated the lawn. The Bak Kut Teh was really tasty and smelled delicious. We also went over to my Grandma’s house to take some pics and ended up getting a tour of the property and a nice wedding gift from Grandma and Grandpa.
Today was Mother’s Day and we had a really nice program during Sacrament Meeting. Sharon and I got up early (for us) at 7:40 and made my mom breakfast in bed, following a family tradition. We also sang ‘Mother I Love You’ (well, I sang it solo since Sharon didn’t know the words). Kendall was at Mission Prep (crazy they even have it on Mother’s Day). Now we are all back home and getting ready for dinner with all of the extended family over at our house to celebrate Mother’s Day.
In other news, I’ve been working on my business website, which will serve as a place for me to showcase my work and give information about my business. It is http://www.wildkatana.com. It is not finished yet, but you can check it out anyways if you are curious. I am also looking into getting a Business License and registering my business officially, so I can start cashing my checks which are made out to my Business name (WildKatana Design) rather than my name (already a few people have done this ><). I’ll report on that next week.
Sharon and I are also working on getting the Adjustment of Status forms ready to send in (like 6 forms with multiple pages each, plus lots of other supporting documentation and photocopies of records, etc). It is a complicated process, and costs $1010! Anyways, we will be happy when it is all settled.
