It wasn’t quite as warm out today, and we
had a dash or three of rain this afternoon; but the temperature still climbed
into the mid-fifties; and nobody around here had a problem with that compared
to the snow and cold we normally have this time of year. This will make going back to winter suck a
bit; but that’s inevitable – even if it does looks as though we could have a
few more days of warm first.
While Spring weather in mid-January is the
top story around town; I’ll have to go with the alone time Michael and I got to
have tonight for my daily highlight.
Some quality make-out time will make the highlight reel for most teens,
but the main reason I pick that today is because the rest of my day really wasn’t
very exciting at all. Breakfast with
Rowen and her parents was fun, but quick and easy too because they needed to
get to the store and I needed to get home to help out with chores. That took all morning; we had an easy lunch
that was highlighted with the week-in-review chat time with Dad; and then I
spent the afternoon doing a study session with my friends until Michael needed
to get back to the Inn to help out with the dinner rush. I helped Mom with both the cooking and
cleaning on each side of our dinner too; spent some time with Ethan and Ehlana
after that; and then Michael was over in time to help out with getting them
tucked in for the night before we came up to the lounge for that play time for
two.
That was fairly hot, and we had fun; but it
was time for Michael to head home again way too soon for our liking. After I saw him out and watched him walk home
from the front porch, I came back upstairs again; got ready for bed; and have
been cuddling with Mandy and doing some extra bedtime computing while waiting
to wind down and be ready to get some sleep.
There was some family business that I could do, but nothing
newsworthy. The email inbox was
practically empty tonight too; though I’ll probably have a bunch of time coming
in tomorrow or Monday with the college updates and Grandma and Grandpa’s
weekend travel report. They’ll be moving
from Peru to Chile on Monday; but they’re taking the day off tomorrow to celebrate
Grandpa’s birthday. I hope they have a
great day for that!
It’s past one now, and I really should at
least try to get some rest. We won’t be
celebrating Grandpa’s birthday with him, but I do have another study session
booked tomorrow afternoon; and plan on helping out at the Inn for the buffets
after that. The Inn isn’t all that busy
right now, which is normal for January; but the buffets are still the busiest
meal sittings of the week; and Jacob and Miranda are a bit short-handed due to
teens wanting extra time off for exam studies.
Maybe Michael and I should take the extra day off opportunity and shoot
for another unplanned sofa sleepover. I
might be very, very tired after another long, busy day of work and studies! ;^)
If you flip the digital page, and my next
update actually is delayed; I’ll report in advance that I won’t be sorry if
Michael and I do get another cuddle night together. I like them so much that I plan on having
them with him on a daily basis in the not-all-that-distant future – after we’re
married; of course!
That sounds like something fun to dream about,
and I am nearly ready to try to do that; so that’s all for now, and, until next
time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
