The highlight of my day was my sofa
sleepover with Michael – and the wake-up hugs and kisses we shared at dawn
before meeting up with my parents, brother, and sister for Tai Chi by the
river. Breakfast was at his house; the
highlights there were the food and getting teased by Miranda; and then we met
up with Tim, Rowen, and the other teens for the football workout. There are more guys joining Michael and Tim
now, but they still don’t have any of the senior players; and the group of
soon-to-be Grade Nine guys doesn’t look to be ready to play yet this year – at least
compared to Michael and Tim.
Michael needed to get to the Inn after
that, and Rowen and Tim both headed for work too; so I went home and got
started on my own family business work.
That’s pretty much all I did for the rest of the day except for helping
Mom out with some chores, cooking, and meal clean-up; and it ended up being an
indoor day after that anyway as rain moved in and kept things wet off and on
for the rest of the day. The co-ed
baseball practice was cancelled – as were all of the other practices for today. I was okay with that, since it meant that I
could get a lot of family business work done – especially when Mom let me play
at that with a fair bit of Magi power practice.
We both managed to get about a week’s worth of work done today; and
Ethan and Ehlana had some fun with that too – though their computing time was
mostly play for them with Ethan reading in the archives and Ehlana doing some
research for projects she’s playing with at the lab.
We’re having a quiet night at home
too. I wish Michael could be here with
me, but the rain has brought the campers into town for dinner at the Inn or
some play time at the pub – or both – so they’re having a busy night. He isn’t coming over after work either
because we’ve decided to actually get a full night of sleep tonight instead of
staying up late again. Our choice for
that has more to do with our tentative plans for tomorrow night – a camping and
campfire adventure after Rowen and I have our baseball practice that’ll also
allow Lucas to be here in town for the Friday football workout before he has to
be back out on the farm. Those details
are still being worked out; so I’ll keep you posted on that with my next
update.
For now, I’ve wrapped up my day with a bit
of music and gaming fun with Ethan and Ehlana after dinner while Dad worked in
the office and Mom split her time between the lounge and office to hang out
with all of us. When she took the twins
downstairs for bath time, I hopped into my Jacuzzi for a nice long soak; got
ready for bed; and will be sleeping shortly after I’m done writing this little
report. Other than the morning side of
the sofa sleepover with Michael, this has been a fairly uneventful day; but we’re
all good with that after too much busy.
I’m also really happy with the chance for a
solid eight consecutive hours of sleep, and it’s time for me to get started on
that; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
