the devil's in the details (25/365e)

Another morning rush. Got into the bath at 1039, and into room at conservatory at 1059, which is crazy stupid fast. Lesson was Clarke, where we started nitpicking already in the first measure. - so many small details to work on.

Henry and Theodore had organ lessons and practicing, and Felix Edward and I went up the Schlossberg, ostensibly to try to "fish" for coins with a magnet on a string. Someone else had had the same idea, so our magnet got stuck on someone else's magnet just under the iron grate. Instead we threw gravel into the well (to enjoy the sound of it hitting 94m down) and maple seeds (to enjoy the sight of them helicoptering for a long time, lit beautifully by the electric lights) Felix was extremely disappointed by the unsuccessful fishing operation, but the whole walk home was chattering away trying to think of ways to get the magnet back out. "operation rescue magnet"

Went to spar with Henry and Felix, for scallions. They didn't go alone because they explained they didn't know what scallions are. I wanted them to make padseeew for Jacky and Andi tonight.

Family meeting was quick and fun, and we left early, putting edward in charge of bedtime. Saw the Forster's earlier than "normal" (like 10pm) ... Low key evening, just talking and playing hanabi, even leaving before midnight.
