Happy 5th Birthday, Leah!
Happy 17th Birthday, Diana!
I ended up having some extra play time
today that I shouldn’t have chosen over my work night, but I had some birthday
fun with Leah and our family and her friends; it was too-nice out to waste all
of the hot weather by staying indoors; and now I’ve had to make up for that by
working late again.
This is very temporary, but it was nice to
have it feel like summer today – and it’s totally unfair of me to be happy to
go from freezing to the nineties while complaining when the temperature plunges
the other way. While that’s true; I also
didn’t have a problem with enjoying the warm – though it wasn’t sunny very
often thanks to the threat of rain and thunderstorms that didn’t get here until
tonight – when it didn’t matter anymore.
It is late, though, so let’s move this
along. We had a standard school day
morning at home; more bonus outdoor time during our classes at school; a
special birthday lunch for Diana because she went to the city on a birthday
date with Kris instead of having a party tonight; and I’ve already mentioned
the visit to Leah’s house to help with her birthday celebration. I also went biking at the park with Michael,
the twins, and some other friends; we had ice cream treats at the Emporium; and
Mom and Dad went with a barbeque dinner with cold salad sides that we had
outdoors before I got to work in the office by a bit after seven.
I had a lot to get done tonight; Mom, Dad,
and the twins worked or studied in the office too - once they got back from the park and the first co-ed ball practice of the season; and then we all headed for
bed when they were done – and then I got back to work once changed and in bed
with Mandy. A lot of time phasing was
involved in my work and studying, but I’m ahead of schedule now; and won’t have
to work all night tomorrow as we head into the weekend. I do have a lot to do beyond the family
business work and studying – including getting ready for the senior trip; but I’ll
have more on that with the next few updates.
For now, I really just need to crash and nap, and don’t have anything
else to add for the news of the day that can’t be found from better sources
elsewhere in the archives; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
