The top news of the day for me was the
family business meeting tonight, and while that was fun; there really isn’t
anything new to report that I haven’t covered during the last couple of
meeting-night journal updates. That’ll
change with the next meeting, since we’ll be heading into spring with a lot
going on through until summer; but I’ll save what I do know already about that
until then.
It was still cold out today, so being
indoors was okay with me; and I was really only outside to get between home and
school; school and Michael’s house; and then home again in time for that
meeting. The top story at school today
was that the girls’ basketball team is in the playoffs; and their first-round
match is on Wednesday. That’ll be an
away game, and they’re up against a top team; but they’re fired up, and Carolyn
is particularly enthusiastic about their chances as heavy underdogs. I may actually be going to that game with
Miranda, and we talked about that at dinner; but she won’t decide for sure
until Wednesday – and it’ll depend on whether she can get the server schedule
shuffled so that she can miss most or all of the dinner rush. I’ll guess that she’ll have lots of
volunteers to help her out with that; since she rarely asks for that kind of
help for herself.
While Rebecca had an extra-long practice
after school with her team, I went home with Michael; we did our homework; and
then helped out with the pre-dinner work while having a fun little chat time
with his parents. Jacob cooked up another
experimental entree that was amazing; Michael and I had time for a music
practice; and then I needed to get home after that while he planned on watching
some television with his parents and sister before going to bed. I’ve already mentioned that there wasn’t
anything going on in the meeting that was new information; so it didn’t really
take that long to cover the updates on all current and in-the-works for the
future projects. Once my aunts, uncles,
and cousins had left again; Mom did my Magi lesson with me while the twins did
some college studying. We followed that
up with getting them off to bed for the night; and then I was allowed just
under an hour to work on family business jobs before being sent up to my room
for the night too.
I’ve pretty much just gotten ready for bed
and done my nightly computer checks since then; and I’m definitely ready for
some nap time now. I’ll be switching the
family business meeting for band and praise team practices tomorrow, but those
should both be fairly easy; since we have some time before our next events for
both groups. It will still mean fitting
the rest of my usual work and studying into less time again, though; so it’ll
still be a long day – even if I don’t get to put in as many hours as I’d like right
now. Maybe I’ll sneak in a bit of time
phasing to help out with that; but we’ll see if Mom and Dad will let me do that
too.
Anyway, that is all I have for now, so I’m
out of here; and, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
