It’s been cloudy all day; we had a spit or
two of rain that didn’t really even get the ground damp; and basically had nice
weather – other than that it was a bit dull thanks to the overcast skies.
I wouldn’t say that my day has been dull,
since it has been another very long, busy day; but I wouldn’t rate it as an
extreme-fun day either. Our morning got
off to a great start with Tai Chi; Violet and Dillon provided most of the
breakfast entertainment as they talked about work, weddings, and plans for the
rest of the week that included what they’re doing for Violet’s birthday and the
Father’s day weekend. They’re staying
here this week, but if you’re wondering why I didn’t mention them in my update
yesterday; that’s because I basically didn’t see them all day while they were
busy with work; helping out at the med center; and spending time with Jake,
Stephanie, and a few other friends.
All of that was on their schedule for today
too, which is why I didn’t see them at all from the time that I left for school
and when they got home tonight and checked in with me on the way to bed a
little while ago. In those intervening
hours, I had another play day at school; we had our last band practice until
September; Michael and I had dinner at his house; we moved on to our teen
praise team practice after that; and I’ve been working and studying here at
home since then. Mom, Ethan, and Ehlana
have had a busy day too. They’ve been at
the lab and the med center; Ethan and Ehlana wrote two of the final exams for
their sophomore year; and they had dinner at Uncle Adam and Aunt Leanne’s
house. Their dinner location was really
just chosen for convenience for Aunt Leanne; and it was Mom, Grandma, and Grandpa
that did most of the work for the meal and clean-up – and Grandma and Grandpa
took a turn at babysitting tonight while I was busy.
I guess that’s actually pretty much all of
the news I have for tonight. There wasn’t
anything newsworthy from my Magi lesson, family business work, or language and
archive studies. I did get that start on
trying to counter one of the business operations that the Hathornes are
involved with in eastern Europe, but that really was just a start; and I’ll try
to do more if I can tomorrow night – if I get to do my after-school work night
tomorrow at all. Mom may need me to help
with babysitting again instead.
For now, though, it’s really late and I
really just need to get started on my nap; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
