The fall school routine is getting settled;
and work night Wednesday is also apparently going to be my chance each week for
an early bedtime. That’s a really good
thing after only getting a couple of hours of down time last night.
It’s been raining off and on this afternoon
and evening, so having a work night has been convenient for that too – though the
guys would have preferred to stay dry during their football practice. I’m so glad that we have the option of doing
our cheerleading practices indoors!
Since Michael, Tim, and Rowen were all busy
after our cheerleading or football practices, I went straight home from the
school; and got to work in the office. I
actually made it home before Mom, Ethan, and Ehlana did, and since we didn’t
have any company around; using a little Magi power to help with my homework,
studies, and family business work was an option.
I haven’t really been writing much about
the lab and what Ethan and Ehlana are doing there, though if you want all of
the details; they’re available in the lab research archive. Mom’s continuing to give them cover for being
there with her work on the computer systems there, and while that isn’t just
make-work; the real action is going on in the lab and Magi archives. Ehlana is having fun with Uncle Adam in the
lab; and Ethan is enjoying his play time with the books and everything else
coming in to him from the archives that Grandpa Grant and Grandma Eleanor are
shipping home – though they’re not currently on a trip right now. They’re spending some time in the archives
with him; and officially have part-time jobs there now. Their next archive trip starts after the fall
festival, and though that trip will only be until Thanksgiving; they’ll be gone
for a couple of months during the winter.
That excursion coincidentally will be somewhere warm, but if I was
planning those trips; I wouldn’t be picking Norway in January and February
either.
I’m not in the loop for any of that right
now, though I might get involved at the lab now and then – especially if I need
to do that to spend time with the twins; but that probably won’t happen at
least until after football season is over.
It is a little funny that my toddler brother and sister seem to have a
more exciting life right now than I do between their work at the lab and their
college education; but I’m okay with the fun I do get to have – especially with
Michael, Rowen, and Tim.
Okay, other than while we were at school, I
didn’t get to spend any time with them today while we all spent the evening
working; but you know what I mean. I’m
good with getting to at least pretend to be a ‘normal’ teenager for a few more
years before it’ll be time to do more. I’ll
leave the world-changing research and becoming the greatest historian and
scholar ever to Ehlana and Ethan – even though most people will never know
about them at all.
For me, right now, I’m going to put my
computer away; go upstairs; and spend a little quality time in my Jacuzzi
before getting a full night of rest for a change. Since the twins are still studying; maybe
they’ll even come and tuck me in for a change before going to bed too! ;^)
Until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
