Tai Chi by the river was chilly this
morning. Breakfast at Michael’s was
great; and church and Sunday school rounded out a really good morning. I worked pretty much all of the time after
that, starting at the Inn; and ending just moments ago when I wrapped up the
last of my family business work before moving on to this update. The Inn was packed for lunch and both dinner
buffets, and Michael and I spent our break time doing our weekend homework; so
I really do feel as though I’ve worked non-stop without any real breaks.
While I was busy at the Inn, I missed an
office work afternoon at home for Mom and Dad; and Ethan and Ehlana got to
spend the day playing with Naomi and Aiden instead of being stuck indoors all
day. Dad had a lot to get done for work
next week after being in the city last week; and Mom always has more work that
she can be doing. I can relate to that;
but I got a lot done tonight too – including wrapping up my current language
study time so that I can take the week off from that; and be ready for the language
I’ll be studying in November and December.
I stayed until the Inn closed for the
night; walked home with Michael and his parents because Rebecca had been set
free early after being up late with Jenny on Saturday night. Okay, she had a bit of alone time with Lucas
too before he headed home, but since they get even fewer chances for that than
Michael and I do; I’m just happy for her – and was good with staying and
helping so that she could go home a bit early.
I did the goodnight hugs and kisses with Michael at his house; came home
to mine; and did my Magi lesson with Mom while Ethan and Ehlana wrapped up
their college studies for the evening. I
had some chat time with each of them after that while tucking them in for the
night; and then it was time to get changed, in bed, and working on my computer.
That was too many hours ago; I’m beat; and
it’s time to get some rest now. We could
take a look at the week ahead too, but Halloween is next week; so we don’t
really need to go there when it’ll feel like nearly everything we’re doing will
be holiday-themed.
Oh wait, I do have a bit of news on
that. Ehlana and Naomi are going to be ‘Shimmer
and Shine’ this year – the new Disney Genies on the block that are very popular
with the kids around here – and everywhere else. Ethan and Aiden didn’t want to be left out on
that, and while I’m not sure how well it’ll work out for them; they’re going to
dress-up as Shimmer and Shine’s magic carpet – or maybe carpets. They’re still working on that with the
Moms. One way or the other, they’re sure
to be an adorable quartet!
That also reminds me that Michael and I are
past-due to get our costumes worked out for next weekend; so we’ll need to get
that done over the next couple of days.
We should have dressed up for the dance on Friday and didn’t; but we’ll
definitely want to do something for the party at school on Friday – even if we
don’t do anything on Saturday.
Okay, it really is time to crash now, so
that’s it for tonight; and, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
