yesterday.... went out with others and picked up bosk dung and the thralls carried the heavy bags back to the storage wagons for the trip ahead of us...

kiah needs to update you (as she had already told Master Ubar) that she has not been r/p'ng at night yet because she has a 'frozen shoulder' and goes to PT 3x a week for it and like most things, at night it hurts the most (the shoulder and referred pain at elbow and wrist). this week she had the PT early in the a.m. when she usually gets her chores done, thus none done yet (having to head to work right afterwards). she hopes to catch up with some tomorrow. tonight she did make a quick ooc visit because she just felt a need to be with her family, even if she was not able to serve as she should. she will try harder to get her chores done on time and r/p when her family is 'there'.

aisling got to come in for a bit tonight and checked on the team and got to do a bumpy ride along during the first legs of Migration...so far all is well with Master's wagon and team.

last night i was allowed to drive a wagon and help out with the caravan.  even helped the wagon driver in front of me when she dropped the reins and the wagon began to stray... i was able to get up along the wagon.... slow the bosk... reach the reins.... and right the caravan without much delay in the wagon train.....  thank You Mistress Taryn and ST for the opportunity.... it was great!

last night this girl was not able to come in, but she cleaned and straightened Master Kevlar's wagon.

[kelsey]

I'm confused.  If you didn't come in, how did you clean a wagon? 

Also, for all slaves, until we reach Turia, we would not be doing any cleaning.  the only wagon chores done would involve greasing axles and checking harnesses, yokes and wheels for wear.  A lot of y'all are new to migration, so I just wanted to point this out.  Other migration appropriate chores would include filling water botas and placing them in the driver boxes, caring for the bosk teams....since we wouldn't have water troughs right now, livestock would be watered from buckets....caring for the verr, vulos and kaiila.....keep in mind kaiila eat live food so you don;t want to end up as their meal, so use caution when approaching them.  Camp slaves, make sure BERAT is attended to.....besides feeding and watering, make sure his horns and hooves remain polished and oiled.

(If any of our more experienced slaves think of any other additional chores, please feel free to point them out to help your newer brothers and sisters)
