Day 38 - Wednesday
Hey all! It's Adrianna.
Hey all! It's Adrianna.
I woke up to find Jenny watching the TV and had to laugh. I woke Ricky to show him, but Jenny had already gone outside by then. I told Ricky to get ready for school.
Jules worked with Ashley and the potty. I think she finally has the hang of it.
Then we ate breakfast. Yes, I had key lime pie. Ricky handed me a couple of photos while we were eating.
I laughed at the freezer bunny gnome looking at the ladybug on his ear. I was used to the gnomes and their mischief. But I had to ask him about the second photo. Did he find some strange costume? Or did he make the picture on the computer? He said it was his imaginary friend. I just chuckled, somewhat concerned.
I spend some doggie playtime with Xeno. He is the sweetest puppy ever, gentle and loving. Then it was time for Ashley's birthday party.
I had Jules hold Ashley so I could blow my noise maker as loud as I could. Revenge is so sweet! Jules wasn't amused.
We actually got a small smile from Ashley as she blew out her candles and we reminisced at how she had grown.
She's a very cute girl, even if her attitude is somewhat . . . evil at times. I sent the kids off to school and raced Jules to the tanning booth.
I went first and my tan turned out gorgeous!
Then Jules took his turn. I asked him, why on earth was he wearing a wet suit in the tanning booth? He called it his Summer King tan. That made no sense.
I spent the day teaching Luna how to hunt so she could join the other dogs on their hunts.
Then I found Ricky home earlier than I expected and I got upset. I thought he had skipped school, but he said they let them out early today. (He didn't skip school! I have no idea why she was scolding him. He even did his schoolwork outside of the school before coming home. Go figure.)
Ricky came back from checking on the dogs, crying and telling me something was wrong with Jenny. We all ran out to the garage to witness a terrible loss.
We were all so sad! How could Jenny be gone? I have had her so long. I got her just a few days after getting Forrest and now she was gone.
I thought I was sad until I saw how utterly heartbroken Forrest was. He lost his mate and the mother to his puppies. He was inconsolable.
We carved an epitaph into a bone-shaped grave marker and set it up in the backyard with some flowers and a fence around it.
Forrest wouldn't leave the grave marker, even when it started to rain. I had to have Jules carry him inside. I set him up a bed in our room and locked him in the house.
Ricky, of course, buried himself into his inventing. He was careless and caught fire! We were all terrified but that's why we had the little shower set up next to it. We got the fire put out and Ricky wasn't hurt, so we sent the kids to bed.
Jules went outside to rake the leaves in the rain. It didn't make sense to me, but he had to grieve in his own way.
I, on the other hand, had to go to work. While I did my ghost catching, it wasn't just rain running down my cheeks. Goodbye, Jenny dear.
A Note From ShayDLane: Oh, how I hate when they pass away. Ashley's new trait is Good Sense of Humor. Taking after her parents. She reached level 4 in logic. She used her multi-tab and the chemistry lab to learn the logic so fast. Shrimp reached level 8 in hunting and Luna reached level 2. Jules completed the Celebrity skill challenge in charisma. Ricky reached level 6 in logic. Adrianna collected the Paranormal Momento from city hall and completed an opportunity to deliver 5 ghosts to the science lab. The object above is Ricky's Rotational Pull that he discovered at the inventing table. Sorry I forgot the stats in the last post.
