We’ve had another hot, hot day; I’m wiped
out; and this is going to be another micro-report.
Tai Chi by the river was great; we had fun
with the extra kids at breakfast; and then I did chores and some family
business work with Mom pretty much all morning while the tween cousins kept the
younger kids entertained. We played all
afternoon, with a lot of that time in the river to keep cool; Michael and I
funded an ice cream run to the Emporium for the mid-afternoon break; and we
helped out with an early dinner ahead of Ethan’s ball practice. That was short and too-hot because of the
weather; we went swimming again once we were home; and then the cousins
collectively voted for an indoor camping adventure to stay cooler than we’d
have been in the tents tonight.
My lounge has been taken over by the movie
marathoner kids; I have Brianna here in my bed with me; and I’ve been working
ahead on my family business work so I can take all of tomorrow off to play with
my sister, brother, and cousins. Michael
will hopefully spend most of the day with us too; though we haven’t decided for
sure what we’ll do. A canoe trip to the
whirlpool is one option, but depending on the weather; we may do another trip
to Quarry Lake instead. I don’t really
want to paddle a canoe for four hours or so if it’s as hot tomorrow as it was
today – and it was hotter than forecast by a handful of degrees; at least for
that ‘feels like’ temperature.
The hot, fun, and work really has wiped me
out; so that’s all for now. I’m going to
snuggle up with my cuddle buddy for the night and get some sleep; so, until
next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
