Cassie's Journal - October 18, 2016



As expected, this has been a very long, busy day; so I’m going to try to keep this report short and then crash and hap for a while.

The weather was again great today, with temps rising to near-eighty.  It was cooler in the morning for Tai Chi by the river, but comfortably in the low-sixties; Mom, Michael, and I had fun with the twins while doing that work-out; and then Michael moved on to his weight training workout while I had breakfast and got ready for school with some work on both sides of the meal and a bit of play time with Ehlana.  I don’t have anything exciting to report from my classes today, and while I had a lot of fun with cheerleading at lunch, our two band practices after school, and the teen praise team practice once we were finished with the marching band; there isn’t really any news there either.

I should report that marching band practice is now regularly messing with the start of our teen praise team practice; and it was heading toward ten o’clock by the time we were finished at the church.  Michael came home with me after that; we did our homework; Mom did a Magi lesson with us; and then we spent a bit of time with Ethan and Ehlana having a bedtime chat on Ehlana’s bed once they were changed and ready to get some sleep.  They, by the way, had fun at school; played at the lab and archive in the afternoon; and did their college studies after dinner while Mom worked on the family business.

That’s what I needed to get started on after Michael went home at eleven-thirty; and it’s what I’ve been doing in the long hours since then.  I used a time phase for some of the work, but needed to be in real time for my language studies because that was online chatting and ‘live’ typing as I practiced both verbal and written skills on the fly – something that will be fairly important to me as an interpreter and translator.  There was some other multi-tasking while I did that for work that also needed to be done online, but the computers did a lot of that work; and I just needed to keep an eye on the data flows.

It’s now past-three; I’m worn out; and ready to nap.  Tomorrow is an after-school work day, so I plan on doing all of this sort of work and studying while Michael’s at football practice – or as much as I can get done then; and follow that up with an early bedtime after he comes over and we get our homework done.  Okay, he’ll probably need to go home first before I go to bed, but keeping him for a sleepover is a fun thought to go off to sleep with; so, until next time...

...May the Magi Force be with you!
