We’ve had a lot of rain here overnight, and more this
morning; but it had pretty much ended by the time we were set free from school
and headed over to the Inn for our study time.
It’s been a pretty good day, but I don’t actually have much
to write about. Mom, Ethan, Ehlana, and
I had a short morning chat with Grandma and Grandpa at breakfast; and a bedtime
chat with Dad after getting home from game night. At school, the Maple Valley
winter festival was the top chat topic, with the Olympics a close second; and
for our class, Kris’ birthday party recap kept us entertained for a while in
the morning. Rebecca joined Michael,
Tim, Rowen, and I for our studying after school; and then three out of five of
us had fun helping out in the kitchen for a fairly light dinner rush. That was normal for the week after
Valentine’s Day – or any other holidays – so Miranda had a light crew
scheduled; and it almost felt like putting together a big family dinner.
With game night back to normal, Michael and I didn’t win a
second junior championship in a row, but Miranda did – with some help from
Mom. Jacob teased her about trading in
her co-champion partner this week; but his wife was unapologetic – especially
after getting that two-peat senior championship. I stayed to help with the clean-up and to
walk home with Michael tonight; and then met up with Mom and the twins at home.
The bedtime routine with Ethan and Ehlana that included the
chat with Dad took a while, and then Mom did a long Magi lesson with me; so it
was eleven-thirty by the time I came up to my room and got started on my
studies and family business work. It’s a
good thing that I got some extra sleep last night because it’s going to be four
o’clock soon; and I really am only going to have time for a nap. That’s mostly because I got caught up in a
business project that I didn’t want to leave unfinished until next week; but
it’s done now and I can take the weekend off without feeling guilty about
slacking off.
Since I’m not going to get much rest, though, that’s it for
now; so until next time...
...Live long and prosper, fellow Magi of the Light!
