This is going to be another short report,
but I know I’m overdue for a more substantial report; so stay tuned for that
next week – once I get through this weekend that seems to be more work than
anything else.
As expected, I crashed and napped last
night before we were half-way through the movie; Michael stayed for the sofa
sleepover; and then we woke up early and went to the Inn to work the breakfast
shift. We were busy because we went with
a light staff morning after the holiday weekend; and it was past-nine before I
was able to head home and start helping out with the chores. We did extra work today because the weather
was decent; and that included work on the dock, benches, and canoes. Dad and I ended up having lunch on the fly
while we continued to work; and wrapped up when Michael came over to hang out
with me during his afternoon break. We
took Ethan, Ehlana, Naomi, and Aiden for a short canoe ride with stops for ice
cream at the Emporium and some play time at the park; and then I needed to grab
a shower before heading the Inn again for the dinner shift. Rebecca and I worked adjoining sections
tonight; had fun helping each other out; and that shift went much faster than
breakfast did – at least for me.
Michael and I were set free early, since it
looks like we won’t end up working many closes on the days we open instead; and
we headed for Rowen’s house. She was
hosting a teen movie night; and it was already in progress by the time we got
there. We watched the rest of the movie
they’d been watching by then; stayed for a second flick; and headed home at a
bit after midnight – along with Jessica; since she needed to be home by then
too. That was a few hours of fun, but
nothing really happened worth writing about – unless you included the fact that
Patrick and Jessica were included in that teen movie night fun as one of the
couples on the guest list.
Since Jessica was with us for the walk
home, Michael and I did our goodbye hug and kiss on the sidewalk outside of my
house; it was nothing to write about either; and then he walked Jessica home –
and got kissed goodnight by his cousin too.
She totally did that to mess with me, since I’d been on my front porch
and watching them by then; but she did only kiss him on the cheek to get the
laughs.
Everyone in my house was sleeping by then;
so I only stopped in for goodnight kisses with the twins, Naomi, and Aiden; and
they didn’t wake up while I was in Ethan’s and Ehlana’s rooms. From there, I came up to bed; ended up doing
some work on my computer that came up through email; and spent a bit more than
an hour doing that. I could have left
most of that for tomorrow night, but things seem to be piling up; and I need to
keep up with the work – even when I end up putting in a few too many
twenty-hour days.
This hasn’t exactly ended up being a micro
report, though, and I do have a busy day that will be starting in a handful of
hours; so I’m going to head off into nap mode now.
Until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
