The Malloys headed home again early this
afternoon once Terry was finished with this round of meetings and field work
for the bridge; and life is returning to normal here at home – though normal is
going to still include having lots of teens around after school and in the
evenings between now and the end of exams.
That work is keeping me busy, and I’m
missing out on pretty much everything else that’s going on with my family; but
my friends need me to help with getting ready for exams more so I’m okay with
skipping things like the coed baseball practice tonight.
I don’t really have anything major to
report from school or the studying; since it really has been more of the same
for a third day with the only changes being the dinner guests and the lack of
parents here while they were busy playing with their friends. The study subjects are only changing a bit;
but we’ll get more focused starting this weekend as we switch to focusing on
exams in the order we’ll be writing them instead of working on the tougher
subjects as we mostly are doing now.
There’s no point in boring you with the
study details; Mom and Dad only had Michael, Sally, and Joshua for dinner
extras while everyone else either ate at home or went to the Inn before returning
for the evening study session. We worked
until ten o’clock, and once everyone had left; it was time to get back to my
Magi lessons with Mom. Ethan and Ehlana
were already in bed then because they were playing ‘normal’ kids with a house
full of teens; so I spent a bit of time with them too; which is why it was
after eleven-thirty by the time I got up to my room and started on my real
studying and family business work.
That’s kept me busy since then since I had
all of my usual Wednesday night work to do even though I couldn’t do that after
school or in the evening; and I’m going to miss those extra hours of sleep
tonight too.
I can still have a couple of hours or so of
down time if I hurry, though; so let’s just wrap this up and call it a night.
Until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
