Dad and I have definitely made up for lost yard work time
today. I’m going to keep this short
because I’m way past ready to crash for the night.
The fun news was pretty much all with Mom and Aunt
Leanne. They both have the weekend off,
and after breakfast, Aunt Leanne came over to get Mom for some quality time
with their favorite hair stylists and a morning of ‘fun’ shopping. Alicia took care of Ethan and Ehlana while
Dad and I were busy; and Rowen headed home and on to the computer store after
having breakfast and helping me with the clean-up. They – Alicia and the twins – spent some time
in the back yard with us, and even helped me out with some of the flower
planting when I was working in the gardens after cutting the lawn.
Mom and Aunt Leanne had a girls’ lunch out at the Inn, and then they spent most of the afternoon playing
with Ethan and Ehlana or relaxing in the back yard. We were on our own for dinner, but Dad and I
didn’t stop working until after six o’clock.
He grilled some chicken; I made a veggie and pasta side; added some
already-made cold salads; and set everything up on the back porch patio table. We were still eating when Rowen stopped by
looking for a biking buddy, and though I suspect that Mom ended up helping him
despite her day off, I let Dad give me a get-out-of-clean-up card; finished my
meal; and spent an hour and a half playing with Rowen before coming home by the
time it was getting dark.
I pretty much came straight up to my room then with just a
quick round of goodnight hugs with Mom, Dad, and the twins. My Jacuzzi time was short and sweet, and
after climbing into bed with Mandy; I’ve only done the quick version of my
nightly computer checks before moving on to this update. There is more that I could write about, but
I’m just too tired, so...
...until next time, this is Magi Master Cassie Proctor;
logging out!
