It’s been yet another late night; so this
is going to be a short report because tomorrow is going to be at least as long
and busy for me.
We were up early to see Dad off to the
city; my second nap of the night was in Mom’s bed with her and the twins; and
then Tai Chi and breakfast was the slowest part of my day. Our first Monday of classes was good;
cheerleading practice was fun; and then I spent the evening with Michael at his
house. Jacob cooked up another culinary
experiment that I loved; Michael and I did our homework after doing the dishes;
and then we split the rest of our evening between a music practice to get ready
for our band and teen praise team practices on Tuesday; a minor make-out
session in his room; and a bedtime chat with his parents in the living room
before I came home for the night at ten o’clock.
Mom did my lesson with me first; we tucked
Ethan and Ehlana in after that; and then I came up to my room and got started
on my studying and work while Mom opted for some bedtime Jacuzzi time. I’ve been working on my computer since then,
and while I got all of my work done; it’s taken too many hours to get
there. Time phasing was an option, but I’m
trying to juggle the power usage with the long hours as best I can; and using
my power for that every day isn’t good for me.
Staying up late every night isn’t great either, but I have a lot to do
right now; and that will hopefully ease up a bit once I get settled into the
school schedule again.
Before I wrap this up, I want to mention
that the remodel work has started on the Ayres’ building today. The Haberdashery won’t finish the move to the
new store until the end of the month, but the construction on the upper two
floors can be done now that the holiday and back-to-school rush is
finished. Grandpa Ayres will be spending
as much time with the move as he will be running the store; and won’t even be
open as much while dealing with the inventory move and setting up the new
store. That work on the building is
mostly going to be taking the current apartments apart before they’ll
eventually start building the guest suites that will double the rooms at the
new Inn. That’s going to be fun to keep
up with over the next couple of years – and it is going to take that long, in
part, because there won’t be as much work going on there during the busiest
times of the year for the Inn. Jacob and
Miranda are excited about this next step in making their little dream come
true; and I’m happy for them!
Okay, I should be sleeping now, and won’t
bore you with the details for the archive reading, language studies, or family
business work. I love the fun parts of
the day; wish there was less of the work; and will likely be right here again
around the same time tomorrow wishing the same thing all over again. It is time to sleep now, though; so, until
next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
