Working in the muck

Janie has a lot more fun in the muck than she ever had before. She enjoyed the work and was for the most part very happy. The difference was that Logan and Jody had told her to do the work and had made her to be who she was. She wasn’t allowed to decide things for herself. Logan made Janie work and she hated it because she didn’t like Logan and she didn’t like being told what to do. Then Jody took complete control over Janie and forced her into things. He never let her decide things for herself and always had her on top of a pedestal. When she and Teacake went to the muck she didn’t work at first and it sort of was her decision to start working. Everything with Teacake has been her choice and he hasn’t bossed her around the way that Jody and Logan did. With Teacake he does kind of control what she does but in the end it is mostly her decision. Also Janie is allowed to be more involved in the muck and can actually talk to everyone unlike how it was with Jody where she had to keep her mouth shut.

Vivian, good blog! I really agree with your thought that Janie is much happier working in the muck with Tea Cake rather than being stuck in an endlessly long/painful with Logan or Jody.Although whenever I think of the two of them together I can't help but think they are going to be doomed in the near future. Although it was a very good blog! -Kevin
