Markus and Marsha were really struggling this round. With the restaurant bringing in no money all week, it was all on Marsha to be the breadwinner. She did well, earning I think three promotions plus a chance card that awarded her $2000. I sent Markus down to the business lot on Sunday just to check the value for tax purposes and noticed that the restaurant somehow lost a star, taking it down to rank 9. Not sure how that happened since he hasn't run the business since it achieved rank 10, but it is what it is. I had Markus pass the business over to Jackson on Sunday because I feared he wouldn't survive until next week. He hung in there, just barely, but I daresay next Monday will be his last day.
Early in the week, Vanessa aged up to child, followed the next day by the twins becoming teens. Marsha passed 60 and Markus hit 70 at the end of the week. Jackson will be an adult next week and I have a few ideas about how to expand the business to hopefully make it profitable. The teens definitely have some chemistry with the other neighborhood teens, but no love connections were made.
Taxes were $6,010.00, but the Kekahis only paid $4,000.00, bringing the community balance to $20,891.00 and their back tax debt to $8,330.00.
No changes to stats or careers except Business now only has 2 slots open. The rules are not clear on whether the Business slots that open up when a player owned business reaches rank 10 are subsequently lost if the business loses rank 10 status, so I decided to err on the side of making things harder and dropped one Business position due to The Snack Shack's demotion in rank.
Next up, The Collins family. Happy Simming!
