Fanon:The Genesis Project/Chapter 7

The Harper Household
Well, my birthday has finally come just as I thought it was. It is hard to believe that I have only been here for 31 days and I am already an old man. Jim has now also become a young adult. I hope that I have another 31 days or more just so that I can see my sons and grandsons grew into the Sims I know that they will become.

We are starting to really flourish as a community now. Each household has at least one outside business. I have several more lots for purchase, so I hope that they will be put to good use. My paintings are also becoming quite the collectable items among the others. Makes me feel good. I can't complain about the inflow of money as well, but I will hold off on getting more lots for now. Don't want to expand too quickly for fear of overestimating and causing economical harm. I have done some building of the Real Estate with some of the money that I have. Who knows? Maybe I should also do some expanding of the house as well. I think that I will wait on that for now.

I have continued to teach David and Jim the business trades. I am confident that when the time comes that I will be able to turn over the businesses over to them to run. David will probably be more that willing to do so. I'm not too sure about Jim. He seems to have more interest in rapping and peddling for money than he is running a business. However, when I showed him that doing painting will improve his musical skills, he was more than willing to start learning. So maybe there is hope for him yet. If the very least, he will be of some help for his half brother.

The Carpenter Household
I noticed that Tyler failed to mention that he has asked each of us to start working for each others businesses as hired help. Tyler has decided that he will work for Dan at the Hardware Store. I have decided that I would work for Tyler at the Real Estate. Maybe that way I can get some pointers since he seems to be doing so well. If anything, I hope that it will give me an in to get things cheap.

Just like Tyler, I too have had my (first?) birthday. It kind of puts things into perspective now that I have been around for over 30 days. I have seen my boys grow to almost being men themselves. I have been teaching them what I know about carpentry and running a business. Both seem to be really taking it on. They have even taken on personal training. Pretty soon they will know everything that I know, which isn't necessarily a bad thing since it is obvious that I am slowing down and they will be the ones to continue with the torch. I have a feeling that they will take things to the next level. And I am actually excited to see what they will bring in terms of the next generation of Carpenters.

The Fisher Household
Well, what can I say? This winter has been a really hard one. The lake froze over and I wasn't able to keep things going business-wise. To make matters worse, I have also become old just like the other Originals. That means that Nick will have to take up fishing more as well as the businesses in the coming days. He has learned what I know about running a business, but he still have some things to learn about fishing. I'm not too worried about that though because I know it is only a matter of time that he learns what little he doesn't know yet. And of course I am going to be helping as much as I can with the fishing and businesses because we have to pickup from this bad winter. I must say that it was a good thing that I was able to start working with Sean at the Rec Center to help keep an income somehow. I know that I will never become a personal trainer, but that is probably a good thing considering that I am really slowing down. A word of advice: DON'T GET OLD!
