Since my last update, I’ve had a kid-rated
movie night; a kid-rated – and chaperoned – sofa sleepover; indoor Tai Chi due
to the rain; and breakfast for eight in the sunroom before we eventually went
to church. The ‘kid’ part of the service
and Sunday school was a couple of hours of family and friends fun and worship;
and then I walked Michael to the Inn; but didn’t stay for the lunch shift.
We’ve had rain on and off again all day, so
while we went out to play a couple of times; I stayed in a lot too – and took
the opportunity to do most of my usual bedtime work and studying while Michael
was busy anyway. We went for a bike ride
while on his break, but did our homework too; and then I worked the
buffet-to-close shift with him and had fun playing in the dining room with
Miranda, Stephanie, and the rest of the servers.
The dinner crowds included my family
because Dad will be in the city next week and they wanted to get together for a
meal before he heads out in the morning, but while I had a couple of visits
with them, they weren’t in my section of the dining room; and I’m glad that one
of my friends got those tips because she needs them more than I do. Michael and I were in charge of closing the
Inn tonight; so we were last out at a bit after ten o’clock. I walked him home; we did our goodnight hugs
and kisses on his front porch; and then I stopped in for a visit in the office
with Mom and Dad on my way up to my room.
I had a bit of work left to do, but
multi-tasked that with my soak in the Jacuzzi; and used a time phase so I could
still get everything done and be sleeping in decent time. Shortly before midnight on a Sunday counts as
turning in early for me; and I’m going to enjoy the extra down time tonight!
With Dad out of town, my week is going to
be even busier than normal, but I’m also going to try and help Mom more than I’ve
been able to do during Dad’s last few trips.
Stay tuned to see if that works out for us, but that’s it for tonight;
so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
