Let’s make this a quick update because
getting a decent night of sleep is an option; and I’m going to take advantage
of the opportunity.
Tai Chi was without Michael this morning
while he worked the breakfast shift with his parents. I spent the morning at the lab and in the
archives with Mom, Ethan, and Ehlana; split my time between playing with Ehlana
in the lab and then hanging out with Ethan in the archives; and had a bonus
visit with Grandpa Grant and Grandma Eleanor that included a chat about their
plans for the winter archives retrieval trip.
We were home for lunch; Michael joined us for that an another afternoon
of play time with Ethan, Ehlana, and some of our collective friends that was
again at the park and included biking and playground time. The temperature reached the low-fifties this
afternoon; so those hours of fun were comfortable as well as entertaining.
Michael worked the dinner-to-close shift
too, so while he was doing that; I helped Mom with making dinner at home; we
also worked in the office when we could; and I used a time phase for the
after-dinner work in the office that Mom and Dad took advantage of while Ethan
and Ehlana were happy to have the extra time for playing in the archives and
working on a lab project respectively.
We were completely finished the work by eight-thirty; I came up to my
room; and had some quality Jacuzzi time without any multi-tasking. I’ve done a quick email check since getting into
bed with Mandy; there wasn’t any work that came up since wrapping up the fun in
the office; and I’ll be in nap mode within minutes of wrapping this up.
Hanging out with Michael would have been
nice after he was done work, but he sensed that I’m wearing down; and was
thinking about me when he suggested that we take the night off because he can’t
keep up with me going day and night every day.
He is tired out too, but since he’s right that I need the down time; I’m
okay with the plan – and we can get back to spending more time together again
tomorrow.
That is it for now, though, and I really
don’t want to waste this big chance for a solid night of sleep; so, until next
time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
