***Heirs of the Magi News Flash!*** The annual fall festival is now behind us, and Cassie and Michael are heading out on their fall trip - this time to the South Pacific! They'll miss out on the Halloween fun at home and the rest of the high school football season, but all of that time in tropical paradises will likely be worth those little sacrifices! Some favorite grandparents will be away for adventures in Arizona or elsewhere too, but our favorite Magi staying at home are sure to have a lot of fun anyway. We'll have all of the adventure highlights from home and away right here for you each day; so... ...Visit Witch Falls often to keep up with all of our latest stories; and Happy Reading! P.S.

Cassie's Journal - November 15, 2012

I’ve decided to skip the extra studying tonight and get a couple of extra hours of sleep tonight.  With Thanksgiving now less than a week away, I should keep working, but after getting the schedule from Mom during dinner tonight; getting much sleep from tomorrow night until after the holiday weekend is going to be tough.

Since this was a work day for Rowen and me, and game night at the Inn, I’ve been busy and on the go pretty much since getting out of bed this morning.  With one day left until the big playoff game, football ruled the school.  That gave Rowen and I even more incentive than usual to spend our lunch break in the music room.  Football fever might be a bit worse in our class than others because Tim Landry is both very proud of his older cousin, Kyle, and a minor celebrity with the other guys because of the relation to our team’s best player.  Playoff glory is apparently fairly rare in Witch Falls, so I do hope our team does well; but I wouldn’t miss it either if football season ended tomorrow night.

After school, I got my homework out of the way first; spent the rest of the time until dinner immersed in the family business; and then, after we ate, I helped Mom with the dishes before we headed over to the Inn with Uncle Adam and Aunt Leanne.  Mom’s a two-peat champion now after she and Miranda won the coveted senior prize tonight; and I’m pretty sure that made Miranda’s week.  We had a comparatively small group of kids and teens playing for the junior championship, and a minor surprise when Rebecca and Jenny managed the win instead of one of the teen teams.

Mom did a short Magi lesson with Ethan, Ehlana, and I after we were home again; followed that up with quick baths before we tucked the twins in for the night.  Mandy and I were in bed fifteen minutes later, and it only took me twenty minutes to get through the rest of my nightly computer checks before starting this.  There isn’t anything else to report for today; and it’s actually still today instead of yesterday like it has been most days by the time I got around to writing my archive journal.  It won’t still be today for much longer, though, so I’m going to wrap this up and shut down for the night in more ways than one.

Say ‘goodnight, Cassie’.

“Goodnight, Cassie.”
