Apocalypse: The End or the Beginning?

This will be the blog where I share my Apocalypse Challenge successes or failures! I hope it won't be as tough as it looks but it sure does seem like loads of fun.

The People of Fayettville have Gained Strength!



With both of us reaching the top of our chosen careers, Tiff and I decided that we'd try for another baby. We have plenty of cash to pay the mob every week, and more children would benefit the community.




Jaaba was promoted to the top of the athletic field for teenagers a few days before becoming an adult, we couldn't have been prouder of him. He is really well on his way to giving us the strength we need to move furniture.



I started a fire! Man, I was so embarrassed. My mom did what she could to teach me to cook-but I still managed to burn spaghetti. I don't know why I did it, but hey I suppose everyone makes mistakes.




We were actually able to call the fire department, so that was a very good thing. They responded very quickly to the fire...and we didn't loose anything. We did have to eat burnt spaghetti that night, but it was no harm.




Tiffany said that mom scared her one night! I don't see how she believes in ghosts, but she said that she was about to relax in the bed to wait for me so we could try for a baby some more and mom just popped out of nowhere and frightened the daylights out of her. Poor girl I think this place is starting to get to her. You'd think that with us now being able to shower she wouldn't be so naive...but I suppose one could imagine anything when they don't have power.




For entertainment we would dance together, hey the family that dances together stays in shape together, right?



After long weeks of trying for a baby, we finally managed to conceive. Tiffany went into her second trimester with no morning sickness during the first. She often complained of being tired and uncomfortable but I believe if I was a woman I'd take that over throwing up constantly.



A bad choice by Jaaba, looses us two days worth of his pay and him a couple of hard earned charisma points. He shouldn't have tried that new age herbal crap to help with his flue like symptoms.



Since we quit our jobs, Tiffany and I have a ton of time to spend together before the baby comes. We've decided to make the most out of it and acclimate ourselves to each other. Our relationship took a hit when we were both working our butts off to get to the top of our careers. We will be spending our golden years together, so we want to have the best relationship possible.



Luke is doing extremely well in school. His grades have improved so much since we have been able to shower. He may end up being the first Skywalker since mom and dad to go to university.



Jaaba makes a point to call all of his friends each day after work, he even chats with acquaintances who are not yet his friends so he can be sure to have enough friends when he becomes an adult to get to the top of the athletics career chain quickly.



Luke became a teenager, he grew up well in the gold aspiration. Which sent him into platinum. His clothes are mighty tacky but with all that's going on in the world I suppose it is the least of our concerns. He wishes to peruse a life of pleasure and his life time goal is to become a video game designer. I hope he is able to achieve that as well as become Mayor of our fair town of Fayetteville.




He quickly got an after school job in the political career chain as a door to door poller, he really wants to get it over with so he can work to become a game designer. He tells me that his family's needs come first, but he really wants to accomplish as much as possible in his life time.

Jaaba became an adult and was immediately promoted to an all star.




Soon after that frozen water started falling from the sky we decided to call it snow. It was the weirdest thing we had ever seen in all of our years. We blamed the chemicals in the atmosphere for causing such an anomaly.



Luke decided to start writing his memoirs for a few reasons. He would need to be mighty creative to become mayor and also he figured that it would be a good history lesson for future generations.



Not too long after that Tiffany gave birth to our third son, Boba Fett, he looks a lot like Luke but has Tiffany's small nose.



Luke got a promotion on his first day of work even though he was exhausted after school.



Jaaba quickly was promoted to MVP. He also got a earning milestone of §5,000.



I became an elder before I knew it, time was passing by us so quickly.



Tiffany was next and the only thing that she could find to wear was a chicken costume, odd thing to have laying around, but it kept the draft off of her.



Luke's homework started piling up after he got his promotion, his grades started slipping pretty bad. Tiff and I tried to work with him but he never had time to have fun. He worked really hard and didn't want to loose his job, and eventually started just putting off the home work until the weekends and his days off.



Boba Fett grew into a very cute toddler. His time as a baby seemed so short, one day he was born and just a few days later he was a big boy learning new things every day. We often worried that we'd miss out on so much of his life because of our age, but never regretted having him.



He helped Luke get out of his slump, and made everyone very happy around the house.



According to Luke, Tiff, and Jaaba, mom's ghost has become more and more agitated and has been haunting the house nightly. I don't know if it is just the conditions of the town affecting them or if its true, but I suppose we'd better not take our chances and figure out some way to appease her spirit.



After just a few days of becoming a MVP, Jaaba was promoted to Superstar! He was really working his way up the ladder to success quickly and his mother and I couldn't have been more pleased with him. He told us he will be buying his own house and getting married after he becomes a Hall of Famer. He said he wants to help out the community and then he will start his own life.



Answering questions for a 'reporter' was a bad choice on Luke's part, and he was immediately fired from his job as a campaign worker. This came as a shock to Tiff and I as we knew Luke generally had better ethics than this. We now have lost hope for him to become the Mayer. All that hard work down the drain.



Early the morning before Boba Fett would turn into a child, I managed to teach him how to use the potty all by himself.



Poor Luke just can't get a break, even though he got fired from his job, he still had issues with getting enough sleep.




Tiffany said that she was scared by my mother again, I just don't get it. I guess that could be what's been troubling Luke too, maybe she's been scaring him and keeping him up at night so he can't get enough sleep.



Boba Fett became a child faster than I could blink it seems. I learned how to conserve energy so I could care for him easier, getting up in my age really was starting to take its toll on me. I could barley get from the bottom floor of the house to the top floor with out suffering from exhaustion, so I'd meditate to care for little Boba Fett, now that he is a child he'll be much more independent and I'll be able to get the rest I need.



Mom's ghost has still been causing problems, Boba Fett can rarely get a full night's sleep with all the haunting she has been doing. Our family must strive to make this town a better place to live and she is making it even harder. I suppose she wants to scare us into working harder for the sake of the community.



Giving a choking woman the Heimlich maneuver, Jaaba has earned himself the notability he needed to be promoted to assistant manager. He only needs a couple more promotions before reaching the top. His mother and I are so pleased with his success.




Like Skywalker men before him, Boba Fett often cheats at chess to win. I never realized how gullible Tiff was until I caught this.



Turnabout is fair play though, and when Jaaba played with Boba Fett he too cheated. One would think that because he cheats as well, Boba Fett wouldn't be so naive.



With all of the snow falling on the ground, the busses that were once coming for Bobba Fett are no longer able to run, thus he has only been to school a few days since becoming a child. It worries me that he doesn't get enough education but he seems to be happy about it. He says it gives him more time to study because he wants to take over where Luke failed and run the town of Fayettville one day.



Luke became an adult, where are the years going?



He was so distraught that he immediately went into aspiration failure. The local shrink came out to assess the situation, and helped him out just a bit. Hopefully Luke will soon be able to recover from this.




Paying for the piano movers out of his own pocket earned Jaaba the renown he needed from the higher ups snagging him the spot as head coach they even reinbursted him for paying out of pocket, he was sure glad he didn't risk something happening to the players by having them move the piano!



With another opportunity for failure or success, Jabba once again shows everyone what he is made of by choosing the right option. He opts for cutting the team's expenses in order to acquire a new MVP instead of loosing the new players who show lots of promise for this season.



Boba Fett became a teenager and decided he wanted to learn everything there was to learn about everything.
All of those hours at the chess table really paid off, Boba Fett maxed out his logic points. He is well on his way to earning the requirements he needs to become mayor.



At long last he did it! He became a hall of famer and joined the Mutant Arena Football team where they worked together to create new training techniques to help the muscle degeneration that was set in after the disaster.

I received one of those videos after Jaaba's promotion, I'll stick it in here like my mother and father did before me in hopes that one day one of our family members will be able to view them.



*Author's note*
Sorry about the long gap of time since my updates, I got rather bored of the challenge and then stuff came up, I would like to thank Tiffany's apocalypse for giving me the motivation to start getting on mine again. I am also sorry for the small pictures as I forgot to change them to large, but I will have them large from now on. I hope you continue to read my scrap books, and look forward to all of your comments.
