[[File:465 W Business Loop.jpg|right|thumb|[[Fanon:Tyler Harper|Tyler]] decides that he would give [[Fanon:Jim Harper|Jim]] his own business]]There weren't any birthdays this season. Kind of feels weird because it seems like someone always had a birthday every season for as long as I can remember, and I have been around for 36 days. That is quite a long time!
 
In any case, the businesses have been going quite well. My [[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#325 W Business Loop|real estate business]] has a continual flow of lots being bought and sold, which is bringing in a lot of [[simoleon]]s. My paintings have also been selling for quite a high value. I might open up a separate business for my art. It isn't like I don't have the simoleon to afford it.
 
Because of the extra simoleon that I have, I decided to add onto the house so that the boys and I had more room to move about in the home. And speaking of the boys, I decided that since Jim enjoys music so much that I would give him one of the lots to build a [[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#465 W Business Loop|music store]]. I think that he has really taken to being a businessman of his own.

[[File:633 W Business Loop.jpg|thumb|[[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#633 W Business Loop|The Rec Center]] stops being the place to also buy carpentry]][[Image:675 W Business Loop.jpg|thumb|[[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#675 W Business Loop|The Carpentry]] is built next door for all carpentry needs]]Things have been picking up somewhat, so I decided that it was time to separate [[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#633 W Business Loop|The Rec Center]] from all things carpentry and take the lot next door for that. I know that it looks like we didn't make any profit this quarter and The Carpentry isn't really that much to look at, but I feel that this is for the best. Who wants to take a lap in the pool and then decide what windows he wants to buy? Doesn't really make sense to me. [[Fanon:Alex Carpenter|Alex]] and [[Fanon:Drew Carpenter|Drew]] agree with me as well. It is a good thing because they will probably be responsible for really taking the place off the ground since I am clearly slowing down. I am not, however, ready to give up just yet.
 
And speaking of my boys, they haven't quite had their birthday just yet, but they are just about there. They will be full pledge adults very soon. It's so hard to imagine that I was surprised that I had twins what feels like it was only a few days ago. Truly it was 29 days ago, which is almost a year and a half ago! And to think that they will be having their own sons in about a couple of seasons. Time sure does fly! I have no worries that they will make great parents and even business owners. I don't think that I could be prouder of anyone. I guess I am actually quite proud of the community that we have created as well. Almost two years ago found the eight of us in a very strange place with no knowledge of where we were, or even who we were. Now we have made our homes, had our families, and built various businesses to help give our various skills for the improvement of the community as a whole. I just hope that I am around long enough to make sure the next generation doesn't ruin it all.

[[File:717 W Business Loop.jpg|thumb|[[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#717 W Business Loop|The Bakery]] is taking shape]][[File:Connor Baker Adult.png|thumb|[[Fanon:Connor Baker|Connor]] as an Adult]]I find it hard to believe that [[Fanon:Connor Baker|Connor]] just had his birthday. He is now an adult. He might be the age that I was when we first found ourselves in thethis place 36 days ago. I guess that would mean that we are at least 66 days old or more. That means that almost half of our lives have been taken from us, but we have moved on and built our lives here with our sons. I can't imagine live any different than this, but it kind of makes you wonder what our lives were like before we arrived in this place. Did we choose this? If so, why did we have no recollection of it? Or were we abducted and brainwashed to forget? Kind of makes you wonder.
 
In any case, the [[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#717 W Business Loop|Bakery]] has been doing some growing into the place that it is now. It has been a little slow, but it has been doing well. I hope that I am around long enough to see it really become successful like I want it to be. I am not concerned that my sons won't be able to keep it going. It's actually a good thing because this community would starve without us providing meals for everyone. No one really knows how to cook other than myself, which is actually a little of a concern for me because the boys haven't really taken interest in learning how to cook. I'm not too worried because I know that when the time comes, which I'm sure will be at least another 30 days, I know that they will be quick studies. I mean, I was about Connor's when I started working on cooking, and I didn't have anyone to teach me other than experience.

[[File:Eric Gardener Adult.png|thumb|[[Fanon:Eric Gardener|Eric]] as an adult]][[File:423 W Business Loop.jpg|thumb|[[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#423 W Business Loop|The Farmer's Market]]]]It is quite amazing to think that Eric has just become an adult. To think that he was born only 30 days ago! I guess that means that I have to be at least 66 days old. Right? Well, we found ourselves here 36 days ago, and we were adults then. If you assume that an adult is at least 30 days old, I guess that would be right. But it is also possible that I am in my 70's or more. Ekk!! No wonders why I have so many wrinkles. Or maybe that is just the folds in my leaves. I am a plantsimPlantSim after all. Hehe!!
 
The Farmer's Market is slowly growing. I have no doubt that Eric will be able to take over if I ever slow down and ask him to. I've also done some perfecting of some recipes with the produces I grow. I have learned to make some pretty need drinks. I have now decided that I can make a blender that the others in the community can use to enjoy some of them as well. Sadly the blender isn't easy to make, so I have to charge quite a bit of simoleons for it. My guess is that Tyler will be the only one with one for a while.
 
He really seems to be doing quite willwell because he added an extension to his shack and seems to literally have simoleons coming out of the wazoo. I hope that Chris doesn't take too much notice about it because he has mentioned before that he thinks Tyler is just creating simoleons to make himself rich. It probably is just the Real Estate business and also the tax we have to pay on the lands we own. In fact, there has been some talk about asking him to stop the tax because he obviously doesn't need to simoleons anymore.{{clrr}}

[[File:Jared Plummer Adult.png|thumb|[[Fanon:Jared Plummer|Jared]] as an adult]][[File:549 W Business Loop.jpg|thumb|[[Fanon:The Genesis Project Lots#549 W Business Loop|The Hardware Store]]]]Has it really been another quarter? It doesn't really seem like that much has happened, but I guess it has. Jared had his birthday. To think, it was almost 2 years ago when we all found ourselves in a strange place. Now we have children of our own who are getting ready to have their own children soon. I'm not sure I am ready for that sort of thing again. Not that I don't mind having kids around again, but I just don't want to have to take care of diapers again. I shouldshouldn't have to anymore. And no, I am not saying that I am old.
 
How can I be old? I have a business that is on its way to becoming quite the store. We will have all the plumbing needs fulfilled that one could dream of. I even have some ideas on how to make even fancier plumbing that will make all the aches and pains just wash away. I mean, we shouldn't have to struggle from day to day like some wild animals or something. We have brains for a reason.
