We didn’t get the snow that was forecast
for our area, other than a few flakes here and there; but it did stay around
freezing all day.
It was fairly quiet around here too, and
other than the morning chores around the house and yard; I didn’t even do a
whole lot of anything. While we didn’t
get the snow, Dad and I did hook up the snow blower to the lawn tractor; so we
will be ready for the white fluffy stuff whenever it does get here. We were done our chores by noon; had lunch;
and then Ethan, Ehlana, and I were set free for the rest of the day while Mom
and Dad both went to work in the office.
We spent the afternoon indoors, including
while Michael was here on his break from the Inn; and mostly just hung out in
my room and the lounge. We played some
music; watched a movie; and Michael and Ethan played some video games. Dad is getting ready for his week in the
city, so Mom went with an easy-dinner night that made for an easy clean-up
too. Michael was back at the Inn while
we were doing that, and I had some more quiet play time with Ethan and Ehlana
until he got back again and we settled in to watch another movie. That was fun, but the highlight of my day was
the alone time that Michael and I got to have after we tucked the twins in for
the night.
Have I mentioned before that we need to
make more time for that?
The good news is that we did get to have
that kind of play time this weekend. Our
opportunities for doing that could be fairly limited over the next month and a
half – especially now that we have at least one more football game next weekend
to go along with the Thanksgiving and Christmas events that will keep us busy
through to the New Year.
That’s not a very merry thought at
all. Maybe we’ll need to arrange for
another ‘accidental’ sofa sleepover sometime soon if we can’t find any other
way to have some alone time for two. ;^)
I am a happy camper tonight, though, and so
is Michael; so we’ll just be grateful for having a really good day with a
fairly hot, exciting, and happy ending.
He went home at midnight; and I’m spending some time in my Jacuzzi as I
write this and do the rest of my usual bedtime computing. Mom and Dad packed up and called it a night
when Michael left, but let’s not even think about what they might be doing
right now in their Jacuzzi. Yes, I’m
glad that they’re having a happy end to their night – especially when Dad will
be away next week; but no details are necessary.
It’s just about time for me to get out of
the tub and finish getting ready for bed anyway, and I don’t really have any
other news to report for today; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
