Grandma and Grandpa are in Arizona now, and
I’m wishing I was there because it’s been back to wet and rainy around here
today. I won’t complain about that;
since Mother Nature was nice enough to give us two out of three decent days for
the fall festival. Dad’s also in the
city for the week; so we had the usual early morning start to the day and I’m
really tired out again now after another late night.
There hasn’t been a lot going on around
school today – other than a lot of talk about the festival weekend and dating
news. Halloween plans are on the radar
now too; but that’ll kick up another notch tomorrow once the festival chatter
winds down. I also had fun at
cheerleading practice, which was indoors; but the boys did not enjoy their wet
workout for football practice after school.
Lucas and I were with Rebecca, Michael, and their parents for dinner
tonight; we studied together; and then Michael and I wrapped up our evening
with some music and make-out time in his room before I needed to get home and
on with the rest of my usual school night studies and work.
I’ll skip the details for all of that,
since I really do want to get to sleep; but it is time for a weekly plans
update because I do have some news there.
First up, Aunt Leanne’s birthday is on
Thursday, and the news Mom gave us this morning was about that. She and Uncle Adam are taking Aunt Leanne to
the city for a night out and sleepover on Wednesday; they’ll come back Thursday
afternoon; and then we’ll have a birthday dinner party for her at the Inn
before game night. Ethan, Ehlana, and I
will be with our best friends for the night on Wednesday. There was one more travel news story that
directly affects Rowen and me. Tim and
Michael are going away for the weekend to see Kyle’s football game this
Saturday. Tim’s father and Uncle Lee are
going to their game Friday night; and then they’ll leave directly from Varney
after the game to drive there so they’ll have more time to spend with Kyle in
the morning before the game. Since Lee
is a locally famous football alumni at his college; I won’t be terribly
surprised to find out that he gets the VIP treatment – and maybe even sidelines
access during the game. That’d freak Tim
out if he got to do that too!
I’m sure that they’ll have an awesome time;
but this is going to be a strange weekend for Rowen and I to be boyfriend-less
for a couple of days. We’re already
doing the mid-week sleepover; but we might need to hang out together a lot
while they’re away too. There’s a very
good chance that they’ll have more fun than we will – this is going to
definitely be a yard work weekend, and Rowen and I both know that we’re booked
to do that at our respective houses. The
one addition to that this week that will be fun is the Halloween
decorating. I’ll probably do that with
some junior help from Ethan and Ehlana this year; and we should probably work
on picking Halloween costumes too.
Michael, Tim, Rowen, and I haven’t decided whether we’ll got out
trick-or-treating this year. Quite a few
teens here too, but I don’t think that we will – unless I get drafted to take
the twins out. We’ll still need costumes
for the party and haunted house at school; and we have signed up to help with
the Haunted House now that we can do that this year; but the work for that hasn’t
gotten started yet.
Anyway, I guess that’s all of the major
news for today. Michael and I will
likely be here tomorrow night with Mom and the twins so that she can do a
lesson with us before her trip to the city, and now that I’m thinking about
Michael’s trip now too; I’d better see what we can do about having some alone
time too. I definitely don’t want him
forgetting me while he’s gone! ;^)
It’s time to get some sleep now; so, until
next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
