The Grand Update

Sunday, December 05, 2004 or The politics of being put upon.

My job is my job and so I signed up to do it but I totally just don't want to do anything anymore.It seems like it's too much and I can't think anymore.

Well anyway:
Spotlight on Bright Morning, Wamsutta, Lettice, Metacomet and Pasha.
The usual stuff. Bright Morning is worried about Belgica and not having a baby. Metacomet is worried about her. Wamsutta is being a kid. Lettice thinks about home and Pasha feels badly about what happened to Felia.


Let's see...
Quesnel
Felia experienced sharp pains. She was not feeling well after having contracted a fever somewhere. The family sent for the Doctors Pasha who were at the younger's office. They also sent for Sima.Sadly, Felia loses the baby. It was one of those things. Elena Bordana, the would be grandmother is just convinced that the family is cursed. As she always has. She was the one in the family that came from a different sort of family, a more traditional family. She married a unusual person in Pavel Gurdinan-the elder Doctor Pasha. (The younger Pasha is actually his grand or great nephew, that is the grandson of his brother Vasily. A running family joke is that genes hopscotch in the family during pregnancy or that changelings are hard at work. The only descendant Gurdinan in the family to become a doctor is in Vasily's line while Doctor Pasha's line is full of dancers and teachers-Vasily is a teacher and his wife Claire was a ballet dancer.)I began to tell some of the family history in Nini's journal. Bright Morning decides to correspond with the Cousins and Cousines about important things.

Edenton
Anne speaks with Lettice regarding what she plans to do regarding getting revenge for Kushkumasi. Lettice encourages her to follow the path of the Denunciates which she feels is the more constructive one. Off topic:I will be working on Thanksgiving (my choice) so I will definitely be adding the letters for each location such as the letters to and from Edenton and Quesnel and Kushkumasi.

The Gurdinan household.
Felia is pregnant which is good news for Sima although it happened rather quickly but then it is expected when you are just married. Pasha is conflicted over his feelings concerning his father, his life and everything.EdentonAlfred is still learning how to bake bread. Katherine Boland is encouraging Jenny to explore "normal" girl pursuits. Anne grows restless as do her parents, being so far removed from everything. Christiana writes home.
