My day started out great with Michael’s
wake-up call; and that was both a great way to start the day and wrap up our
sofa sleepover. Tai Chi with Mom and Dad
was fun too; but the highlight of our collective morning was breakfast for all
of us at Michael’s house.
Mom and Dad had apparently been invited to
that last night after messaging Miranda that they didn’t expect Michael to make
it home last night; so the surprise for that was only on Michael and me this
morning. The parents had fun with us
over the sleepover while we enjoyed Jacob’s amazing breakfast; but then we were
busy again either getting ready for church or helping out with the
post-breakfast clean-up. I was on that
work crew, so I was ready for a break when we went to church – mostly because I
was booked to help out at the Inn for the rest of the day. The church service went long again – not unusual
for a holiday weekend; so Michael and I went to the Inn before Sunday school
was let out so that we could help with the work for the first buffet sitting.
From that point on, our only breaks were
for food and one blast of fun that was a round of goodbye hugs and kisses for
our outgoing Johnson and McEwan family members.
Miranda again went with three buffets instead of four, and while that
worked out better for breaks; we were still tired out by the time we closed the
Inn and headed home at a bit before ten o’clock. Other than stopping for goodnight hugs and
kisses with Michael and his family along the way; I came straight home so that
I could get to work.
A bedtime visit with Mom and Dad in the
office and stops for kisses with Ethan and Ehlana as they slept in their beds
slowed me down a bit on my way up to my room slowed me down a bit; but then I
sped things up as I multi-tasked some Jacuzzi time with my work and studying
that included starting my new language studies.
Romanian will be easy-enough for me to learn since I’ve already learned
other languages in that group; but then that’s true for all of the languages I’m
working on during this school year. I
had a fair bit of family business work to do too; which is why I needed the
time phase if I wanted to have any chance of sleeping before morning.
That has exhausted me, though, and there
isn’t anything else to report that’s more important than getting some sleep
right now; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
