Day 15

Another new set of legs for the plan o'the day

We are in week four!!!!  Homesteaders have less than a week left to finish their houses, furnishings and get their land ready for appraisal day.  This week has come (as always) far too fast.  Our day began with a new song about some sleepy and then loud birds, we called it the pineapple song.  Next we sang Eddie Coutcha Catcha Camma Tosanary Tosanoka Samma Kamma Walkie Brown, Boom Chicka Boom (including verses for: astronaut, old man, get off my lawn chicka boom, really, really small, Quaker style, cantaloupe, and dolphin style), the Coffee Pot song and the Gibberish song.  We had to spend some time talking about the weather today, thunder and rain were forecast... we were fortunate to not have any poor weather during our day, but needed to talk about preparing for the possible disappointment.  We broke into small groups to talk about our daily goals.  All of the dung beetles' goals revolved around finishing houses and creating furniture.

We commissioners thought it might be a good idea to talk with homesteaders about a Village Bill of Rights.  We thought this might help homesteaders to make good choices while they are playing the game.  Homesteaders agreed that rights are not something that you have to do, they are something that you are allowed to do.  This is about as far as we got.  This is an example of different priorities at different ages.

We have had some more reports of peep maulings coming in.  The new, bigger problem seems to be with the space time continuum and the peeps propensity to rust.  Many a peep has had to have limb replacement surgery.

During Werk Berzerk we had the usual line up:  nailing houses together, painting, working, building furniture, improving land, small business operations, and also (new today) writing an entry for the real estate guide.   This real estate guide will help homesteaders through the appraisal process.  This way no important features go unnoticed.

Town meeting looks very not-mandatory and kind of boring,
I hear they did not accomplish anything!
