Village is rolling merrily along and, as always, there is more going on than can ever be documented.
As each Village Day speeds by the miniature characters develop more and more personality and can often be found visiting amongst their small selves. Some are planing great adventures ( I saw two exploring the world globe last Thursday, talking about where they were form and where they would love to go), some talking about house design and others exchanging recipes, really!
In addition to responding to job postings and general land work, Villagers have begun exploring possibilities for home building. Pictures of homes and families from times gone by were passed around, fresh sheets of large paper rolled out and myriad drawing supplies employed and, amidst the excited chatter of young people, Dream Home designs have commenced. (From Ms. Cheryl)
This week in (our still as of yet unnamed) Village excitement was in the air as Villagers dreamt of the houses they would build, the animals they would tend, and the gardens they would build… if only they had their bank loans.

This week in (our still as of yet unnamed) Village excitement was in the air as Villagers dreamt of the houses they would build, the animals they would tend, and the gardens they would build… if only they had their bank loans.
Villagers were very busy throughout the land using their peep rulers to measure out the amount of space needed to house their intended families and pets—cheetahs in some cases! Each Villager began the process of laying out his or her land design, some considering accessibility of water, others the quality of soil. This layout, then more firm house plans, are what will enable Villagers to garner bank credit. The corner formerly known as the food dump of the Giants underwent major improvements and the peep of Suida is poised to inhabit the most fertile soil of the entire Nile river valley.
Interviews were held for the position of Moderator, and, in the end, three people were hired for said position: Phil, first 6-weeks; Ciana, second 6-weeks; and Holland , third 6-weeks. All other positions are still open. This makes Phil the first Villager to be hired for a paid position. Congratulations Phil, Ciana, and Holland! Our Moderator still needs a Secretary (or Scribe, as we are in Ancient Egypt): in hopes some Homesteader steps forward to take on this very important position and records all important decisions made by our new Village.
Excitement builds around the next round of jobs that must be interviewed for: Trading Post Manager, Bank Manager and Village Accountant. In addition, a need for a Village Crier has become apparent! Who will fill these jobs? Interviews and checking of references will begin at lunch later this week.
Each Homesteader in the Middle and Upper groups has a question about Egypt they have been assigned to answer: They may research the answer at home or at school~ we will be sharing this important information with the group in a few weeks. (Ms. Dee and Ms. Carey)
