It’s going to be all about football and
cheerleading for me next week with just a touch of baseball here and there; and
one big family event – Uncle Nick and Aunt Deborah’s move into their newly
remodeled home. This is going to be a
short update so that I can get another decent night of rest and be ready for
all of that – especially the cheerleader tryouts!
Tai Chi by the river and breakfast at
Michael’s were my morning highlights; though we had fun at church too while
again getting ready for the holiday weekend service during Sunday school. I came home after church with my family; we
had lunch; and then played for most of the afternoon. That play time included swimming, canoeing, a
park playground adventure; and an ice cream run to the Emporium. Michael joined us for some of that fun while
on his break; and then I went to the Inn with him to help out with the buffet
shift through until close.
That was the tough work part of my day, but
not the only work. I walked home with
Michael after that long, busy handful of hours of kitchen action; said
goodnight to him in front of his house; and came up to bed after just a short
visit with Mom, Dad, and the twins so that I could hop into my Jacuzzi and do
some multi-tasking with a long soak and family business work session.
I cheated for that; used a time phase; and
did about five hours of work in well-under an hour of real time. No, I didn’t stay in the tub for that entire
time phase, but I was fairly wrinkled by the time I did get out and moved on to
doing my hair and getting ready for bed.
I was out of the time phase shortly after climbing into bed with Mandy;
and did my usual computer and email checks before getting to this update. There were some college updates and an email
from Dawn to read and respond to; but nothing all that newsworthy from my
cousins and favorite collegians. It’s
probably just a coincidence that having off-campus, coed living arrangements
seem to have happened at the same time that the emails to me have become
shorter and less-detailed; but let’s not ponder the why for that too deeply.
;^)
Anyway, I’ve already mentioned the upcoming
highlights for this week, and I really do want to be well-rested for the first
day of cheerleader tryouts, so that’s it for tonight; and, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
