Jobs and what not


What a difference three weeks makes... since the last update, Leigh has finished her third educational pursuit and got officially licenced as a bonafide agent. So the score becomes 3-love for the better half... (Yes we keep very detailed score here... we divide the weekly points by BMI, and then times by conversion factor of 71.4 to see who does saturday laundry...) Willy made a good faith attempt at getting into a grad program by squeaking in a couple applications with only hours to spare on the deadlines... I would not recommend it as a strategy. Leigh has got her hands full Covey-izing her affectionate, but slightly disorganized husband.

New this week: Leigh has had 2 non-sick days in a row, Mary I think she heeded your advice about faking illness, she has been sick clear through A-rods record setting spring... We are both really hoping that this nasty little bug is out of the schneebs for good and she can return to her chipper energetic old self. Matt's dip into the construction world ( being done in the mean time while he finds more ways to put off applications for next year...) has been true to the adage feast or famine. We're still waiting for some bids to get accepted and hopefully it will spur steady employment and insurance and all. Leigh decided to take matters into her own hands last week, called up a friend and got a job the next day as the office manager for a software company- @ TASK. She continues her midas streak of being gold at anything she wants to do. We have somehow despite illness, joblessness, and all, been blessed with all that is needful for us to survive and in fact live confortably.
We recently got called to be the YM and YW presidents in our ward, thus proving the theory of callings via dart-board. It has been fun to get out of 'singles ward land' however and to meet with young people. On to the next episode shortly we are hoping- Love to all... Matt and Leigh

Well I hope Leigh has recovered from whatever she had. You know you have to be careful in Mormondom when you mention your wife is sick for a long period of time, you know 3 months or so. People usually don't recover from that illness. In our ward all people have to do is drink from the hall drinking fountain and you've got trouble. It's a good thing I never use it.
Good luck Matt on your application stuff. It would be so fun to have you guys out here. Where would your ideal place be to live? I think if we could handle living in CA we wouldn't mind living in San Diego. Chris has a bit of a prejudice for the place though. The nonconformist that he is. We like it out here but I really like to hike and I don't know anywhere that one can get the burning feeling in the legs from the up hill climb. Well, maybe if you find one of those land fills converted into ski slopes. Take care guys!
