Sometimes it is not that much fun when you’re
a teen and on the incremental path to adulthood.
Translation – Michael and I missed out on
all of the Easter holiday fun while we worked at the Inn all day.
For me, that meant no Tai Chi with bonus
exercise buddies Naomi and Aiden; I missed the big breakfast with the kids and
my cousins; and then I couldn’t be there for the Easter Egg Hunt in the
park. That wasn’t all bad, since we’ve
had rain off and on all day and the participants and volunteers got a bit wet
doing that; but kids are willing to put up with nearly anything for candy and
prizes! After that, I missed the family
lunch; a play afternoon; and the buffet at the Inn that I was here for too; but
worked through instead of enjoying the food and fun with my family.
I’d love to report that we had our own kind
of fun today, but while there were cameo moments of entertainment; this was a
tough work day where we all had to push ourselves to keep up with too much
business for every buffet sitting – including at breakfast. Jacob and Miranda now know for sure how much
they need to gear up their staff to handle future busy days with room for
three-fifty or so at each meal; and they’ll need to do that to avoid burning
all of us out this summer.
It’s been too long a day to write about
stuff like that. Michael and I worked
until close; and we didn’t get out of the Inn until closer to eleven than
ten-thirty. We have the sunrise service
to get up early for, so I came up to bed after just the very shortest of visits
with Mom and Dad. I’m not helping them
to play Easter bunny; I’ve only done the family business work that needed to be
dealt with; and my bedtime computer and email checks didn’t take long because I
did all three of those things in a time phase – while having a speedy soak in
my Jacuzzi.
Mandy and I are ready to crash now; that’s
all of the news for my busy work day; and I really need all of the sleep I can
get ahead of our Easter Sunday adventures; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
