Accomplished: Sasha gets a pony! Yanek, being ten, is jealous. Also, Sasha rats Yanek out for jumping out o a hayloft, but there's no consequence because the ponies have arrived.
I don't know anything about ponies, it appears, despite the fact that I did some research. In 1900 would the ponies have walked ten miles from where they were bought or would hey have been brought in a trailer, given that (1) the Duke is a tentative modernizer and likes automobiles and (2)this is not a well-paved or advanced country?
I will figure that out later. I will also have to gloss over details in pony care and children's riding lessons though these will be plot points. How did I fail to do that research in the last two months when I knew this was coming up?
How did it get to be eight-thirty? I had to take a nap, yes, but it was seven-forty-five a moment ago before I started browsing for scrubs to wear to work.
I'm going to the doctor today! I am an insured woman! Soon I will have a referral for my leg pain! And answers for my skin things!
Tomorrow: Yanek also gets a pony. It's an afterthought, but it's a pony.
And after that, Yanek goes to the Duchal palace and is mistaken for a serving boy, which is not the part of being there that is the most traumatic.
