long long ago

wow, i just realized I haven't posted in a good while. this will attempt to update you all.

Yesterday we had midterms for Legal Environment, Office Procedures, and I forget the other chapter. Anyway, I think I did ok. Now that pressure's off a bit, I can concentrate on getting my exercises done. I'm really enjoying it - even all the legalese is fun. Today we started the next segment, on accounting in the law office. Some of it's confusing, but as Lola says, numbers don't lie, so that part is fairly straight forward.
I worked tonight again, as well as last night and all day Saturday. Today being Tuesday, we didn't have a moment to sit down. Tuesdays is our special - $2.50 rice bowls. Today was frantic. Up till 4:00, they sold over 180 rice bowls, and this evening, from 4:00 on, we did over 100. But I enjoyed it, except for the customers who came in just before closing. Some people seem to enjoy coming late and ordering lots of food. Well, we did survive, which I suppose is a plus.
I had a nice surprise when I got home - Alison tells me some of our new friends called, and they're coming to spend the evening with us tomorrow. I'm looking forward to that.
This is so not chronoligcal (sp?). (Deal with it :-) )
Emily and Julie came to visit this past weekend. After work on Saturday, we went to Stony Plain to a couple of stores. That one thrift store was something else. I suppose I'm glad that we got there only about 15 minutes before they closed. :-)
On Sunday we went to St. Albert for church, and then VanRaaltes invited us over for lunch. After the afternoon service, Alyson Bosch invited us to her birthday party that evening. That was an absolute blast. Some of us played a few rounds of Dutch Blitz, and then Fiona and I played Citadels with Mike and Tricia and Henry and Fiona and some others (my memory for names is strained). It was a great evening.
I really should get to bed. Tomorrow looks like a full day already. So good night (to the owls anyway; or good morning)!
