All Alone in Appaloosa Plains
Week 3: Monday Evening
~texansky~ While Loni was across the street, Fred died! I sent her home right away.
~texansky~ He shrugged at the Grim Reaper, then shook his hand.
~texansky~ Loni arrived home right after this. The grim reaper was fading away when she entered the house and removed her outerwear.
~texansky~ Where’s the urn, and why doesn’t she have the mourning bubble over her head?
There it is.
Loni:
When I arrived home, I discovered that my Dad had died. The Grim Reaper was there to collect him. I can’t find his urn! I can’t deal with this right now. I’m going to bed.
~texansky~ She was dreaming of children and gravestones. I imagine she wished he would have been alive when his grandchildren were born.
Loni:
When I woke up later that night, I found his urn in the laundry room. Maybe he will return as a ghost if I bury him on the property. I laid him to rest outside in the shade of the maple tree he loved to sit under. He would like that.
I don’t know what I am going to do now. I called Benni to tell her the news.
I discovered that Dad hadn’t paid the last bills yet, so I mailed them off with a payment of §125. I alone am responsible for the farm now. As long as I am wide awake, I’d better take care of the garden.
I finished the weeding and went to bed to take a nap.
~texansky~ That’s what I get for having the aliens cure Fred. The game said, “This is supposed to be a challenge. I’m going to make sure it is a challenge for Loni.”
Piggy bank: §6271
Week 3: Tuesday
I bought a Hefty Recycle Bin for §50, then spent the entire day working on the garden. I replaced the dead plants and stored the best seeds in the small chest. Sometimes I wonder if this is what I should be doing with my life. I don’t have time to do anything else, and my garden isn’t even that big yet.
I bought a wine rack for §550. I also brought some more soil downstairs which cost §220. I then installed two plant lights which were §45 each. I should stop by the grocery store and buy some grapes to plant in the new dirt.
Angel caught a Western Painted Turtle worth §15.
I filled her empty bowl with food for §10. Another chore that Dad took care of.
At that point, I headed up to bed. Benni called and wanted to go hang out somewhere. I told her no. I didn’t want my sleep schedule disrupted by staying awake until the wee hours. I crawled into bed and fell fast asleep.
Piggybank balance: §5366
~texansky~ I peeked in on Christian Payne. He jogged to Adventure Landing just to recline in the lounge chair.
~texansky~ Then I followed him home and watched him sleep. Who can resist looking at this?
~texansky~ Click Next to see what Christian dreams about. Yes, I watched him sleep all night. 😆
