Am I In My Spring?

Spent 5 days with Natalia and we had some great fun as usual. This week it was my 43rd birthday and I always look forward to my time with Natalia and my yearly picture. My birthday marks St. Patrick's day the day after and a date that will forever affect me as it was ironically the day my life was changed overnight 5 years ago. This week also marks the beginning of Spring. My birthday was actually on Wednesday and to not go too much into it, it was a bad day for me. For some reason such signature dates tend to have bad things. I waited to Friday to celebrate with Natalia. Some nice presents and a nice cake and as always a nice day overall. Got me another board game (more on that later), some shoes to last me forever and some clothing. Oh, can't forget Master Yoda for Natalia.

Natalia and I got addicted to the Disney Infinity game and played through a whole Toy Box disc and we had a great time doing it together. Also played a few levels of Super Mario Bros. along with our usual board games.  

This week I have been at home all week, mainly playing games and cleaning up. I have been playing for days Warhammer Adventure Card Game and it has been kicking my butt. I have as of yet to complete the first scenario. Not much reading and I hope I get back on that mode to get some books finished. My recent read I find it boring but it is very hard for me to give up on a book. Also this week I made a rather quick baby blanket. The blanket for no one in particular as I like to do these lately and will save it for the future. 

Looking forward to a few games coming this year and seems every month another one is announced that has me excited. Recently Games Workshop has announced Lost Patrol and Blood Bowl reprint. Lost Patrol a 2 player game but I will make it a solo game one way or another. Also, this week I backed my first Kickstarter game. Nothing expensive as it was just a pre-order for the Goonies game. 

Now, sitting here missing Natalia as it tends to happen when I have so much time to think alone. Also again planning a solo road trip that as usual tends to get canceled due to something always coming up or lack of funds. This time out to northern Arizona to do a run through Monument Valley and visit the reservations and swing by to see my best friend.
