Thursday, June 3rd, 2010Simmer’s Notes: Don’t forget to vote in the heir poll. Now that Cassie and Lester are in their twilight, it’s time to move forward.
Lester has been talking about retiring. He’s never shown much interest in it before, so I wonder about why he’s suddenly brought it up several times now. He says it’s because it feels like he can go no further in life as a world famous surgeon and that he’s much more interested in further nurturing our vineyard before he dies.

Lately, it seems as if my dreams have been troubled. Lester’s as well. Perhaps it is because so much has happened. My mother’s death… giving birth to twins, yet again. I don’t know, but I have such strange dreams of late.
And it would seem that Lester and I are not the only ones who have been feeling unsettled. The girls, especially Fern, have strange tales to tell in the morning light, while we are sitting down to breakfast.

Friday, February 19th, 2010Hello… is anyone there? If you are, this is Cassandra Bachelor, and I am standing here, looking up at the stars…. trying in vain to make sense of the things which have happened in what seems like so short a time.
Where do I begin?
I suppose, with my mother, Bella Bachelor, who started life in Sunset Valley as the daughter of Simis and Jocasta Bachelor, sister of Michael & Matthew Bachelor and half-sister to Rene Kennedy.

Alexander was excited to be an uncle. He and Elaine had begun having babies long before and had, in fact, given birth to a handsome little boy, whom they named Galen. By the time Cassandra’s twins were born, Galen was already a toddler and soon to become a child … and Elaine was pregnant again. She was hoping for a girl this time, and they both were looking forward to seeing their new nieces, Elena and Fern.

Friday, February 12th, 2010After the wedding, Lester moved in with us. He brought very little money with him, but that was okay. For a while now, we have been quite okay as a family.
Indeed, I had a bit of a “secret stash” of things as it were. Not money, mind you, but heirlooms and items I’d found on my trips to Egypt and China. Things I wanted more than anything to pass down to my children along with the house. And I had been thinking about these things a lot more recently – maybe it was Dorothy’s death reminding me that neither Mortimer or I were getting any younger and that even if illness never befell either of us, someday the Reaper would come for us as well. It was, after all, the inevitable result of a long life.

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010Happy Birthday, to my darling Cassandra, who became an adult today, with all the bells and whistles that go along with it.
As I watched her celebration unfold, I was overwhelmed by a myriad of emotions, some good and some not so good. Some sweet and some very bitter.

I know what you’re probably thinking — and this isn’t it. This is really not what you’re thinking. Mortimer and I have had our tragic, torrid past, but it really is in the past. He came to tonight in a terrible state, upset beyond anything I’ve ever seen him.

Alexander’s birthday was the other day, and seeing him as a teenager is just like seeing his father as a teenager. If we put them in the same room, it would be impossible to deny that Mortimer is his father. It may be necessary to finally come clean to the children about their parentage. I’m just not sure how to go about it without making things difficult for Mortimer and Dorothy. Their marriage does not need to placed in jeopardy because of me or my family.

Cassandra and Alexander were so much older than their two new siblings that I think I had forgotten how hard it was to have a baby to care for. Only this time, I had two babies, a school aged boy, and a young woman on the verge of her own life.
