Week 53: Tuesday
Dominick was having a psychotic episode. He usually used the paper bag to help calm him down, but this time, he needed to go to the hospital for treatment.



~texansky~ “That paper bag is not going to help Dominick Forsythe-Crouse’s current state of mind. Dominick Forsythe-Crouse should go to the Hospital to Be Admitted.”

As in the past, his wife Tanika waited for him outside of the hospital to drive him home.

Kitty Cat was haunting Regan’s bedside table. Karen was not amused.


Judy, the mother of Jacob Burr-Forsythe, heir of the 9th generation, had been talking with a friend about her writing.

~texansky~ “‘It is all in the prose. A noun here, and a verb there, strung together to weave an tale of woe and anguish. That is how you keep a reader riveted!’ commented Judy Burr-Kern, filling in a friend on how to write a bestsetter. Let’s hope her skill in writing is as good as she says!”
Dominick was in a good mood after he visited the hospital, so he turned the stereo up and danced the Smustle!






Shantell Betts came home with Tammy after school. After doing their homework, they let off some steam by having a pillow fight in the nursery.




Oryan Forsythe came to visit. He was the second child born in the sixth generation and was the alien son of Tony Forsythe. His stepmother was Liz Tarry.

Craven Lestat and his dogs, Austin and Remo, had a special place at the family cemetery.

Ghost Forsythe decided to sleep in the house. He was dreaming about fish and Andy Forsythe.


Karen was visiting with Michael Bachelor, her 4th great-great uncle. Andy Forsythe, her 2nd great-great uncle, was on the couch.




Derek skipped school to go on a date, but she didn’t show up, so he went to school. He was late.


Derek fell asleep on a bench at the school after classes were over!

I caught Karen speaking with her high school sweetheart, Marcos Davis. This gave her a cheater reputation. Apparently, they were still romantic interests. Who knew?


Dominick and Tanika went out to eat at the Bistro, then came home and danced for a while before bed.

Regan Spann-Crouse and her mother, Tanika Forsythe-Crouse. Tanika was listening to her daughter, Karen Spann-Crouse, who played the guitar.

Karen and Regan were doing the school cheer together.
