Anastasia
I meet Jason and his wife Gail and children Sophie and David at the gate of our new home. The movers are arriving in an hour and we need to get inside and give instructions to the staff. I press the code and the gate opens and we go through without any problems. The security gate has a building and a person standing there and allows the people to drive through and makes sure they know who is arriving. If they aren't on this list and they don't have a photo of them they call and verify with me and the company that they work there. Jason Taylor shows me his identification and then introduces me to Gail, David and Sophie. We head inside and we are are introduced to the mannies, the security teams and the housekeeper and the cook. A household assistant is there as well. The mannies take the children to show them the playground, while Robert, Susan, Raymond and I meet everyone and find out we have a CPO for each one of us. CPO Lewis Johnson is introducing all our security team and the CPOS along with staff. The cook is Georgia Reubens, the assistant is Stella Adams, the housekeeper is Glenda Reubens cousin of Georgia. Security is James Sawyer, Albert Lyons, the mannies are Glenn Thomas and Samuel Davis, the CPOs are David Carson, Shelly Conrad, Timothy Smith,  Andrea Lewis, Hank Lewis and Sarah Watkins. Finally the moving vans arrive and we have my assistant lead them to the rooms I have marked for my new bedroom furniture. I had my room upgraded furniture wise. I was sleeping in a fold up bed in a very tiny room. So I ordered a whole room full of furniture and rugs. I bought several matching sets of sheet sets to go with comforters and matching everything. My bathroom is fantastic. All my new things were bought from my share of the inheritance we are getting. I pay extra for the household expenses out of my inheritance to actually have this room. At first there were some issues with me having the master suite, but we worked it out. They found out Allison and Carl's nurseries are closer to the master suite than to them.
Susan
I love my room it is very nice and bigger than my old room, but Anastasia has a room twice the size and the bathroom is huge too. It is fantastic. It has a skylight and huge whirlpool bath sauna and a shower with a bench she said as long as I don't leave a mess like the boys I can use it as well. But one mess and that stops. I have found out that my bathroom has a big whirlpool tub and a big shower with a bench as well. No sauna though. No skylight. Roberts is just like mine as well. Raymond has the same as we do and the nurseries have the same as well. The guest rooms are like ours as well. There are two homes behind our house that are the living quarters for the staff. I go exploring after they unpack my room. Anastasia insisted we unpack our clothing and personal things. She already has hers done and went to unpack Allison and Carl's things. The furniture is placed quickly and everything else was as well. I finally walk down to check out the playground out back. The kids are enjoying their play time with Sophie and David.
Glenda
I am making sure the vacuum cleaner is ready to use and place it it the storage room. Then I ask Georgia if she has food in the house yet.
Georgia
I have no look. I open the fridges and they are all full of food and then the pantries are as well, then I go check the laundry room and everything is ready for use. It looks like they tried the washer and dryer out already. The dishwasher and disposal work as well.
Stella
I had everything stocked yesterday, when I was allowed to come and check things out to make sure everything was fully functional. Anastasia called and asked me to come over and handle a few things. I am her assistant and I will have her schedule and the kids schedule if you need to know anything at all let me know or Anastasia know. I am not your boss, I just give you the schedule she gives me us all, they have a regular schedule. Lunch should soon. We all jump in and get lunch ready for today. I go see if Anastasia is done and she is sitting behind her computer. I tell her we are starting to cook lunch and ask if there are any food allergies.
Anastasia
Stella asks about food allergies, I tell her right now there aren't any that I know of. I tell her that Allison and Carl are fussy about their food. I tell her to ask about Sophie and David's food allergies and to decide from there. I look at the estates houses and structures. Their us a pool inside and outside. The outdoor pool has a fence around it. This has a dock, boathouse and a pool house. I tell Stella to find out what staff that want to live on the property and I need to figure out how many rooms in each building and if they can be lived in.
Stella
I will check them out and find out who is supposed to have quarters and who isn't. I explain that the mannies have quarters in the guest rooms in this top floor near the nurseries. The security have guest rooms on the main floor. Two guest quarters for CPOS in this house. The other homes are up for grabs and Stella, Georgia and I took the pool house. The four other CPOs have decided three will take the house close to the playground and one took the boathouse.
Lunch is served before we finish talking about things. Georgia sent Glenda to tell us food is ready to eat.
