    Krasna P. 2 "I'm plumb wore out" she raised the boys -- and they love.her she's not dying now -- just time to go. Perhaps don't meet the brothers yet ?╟÷ do we have to see all seven of them? Or can we save it to meet them when Milly does? If we meet them now, the song would be the boys support her idea ?╟÷ not to just go get a worker (it's not that they expect life will be easier with the new woman ?╟÷ they just don't know better) the song could be about the joys of married life --(if the idea of a Wife comes up already) Adam: I'll take you to town -- you'll feel better Aunt: No ?╟÷ it won't be better -- I can't come back. Gideon is poinsoning us. (The boys know the place looks like a shit hole ?╟÷ so when Adam brings Milly back maybe he mentions it like "It'll be better now that you're here. It's just that my aunt was sick." -f-this is after "what a nice big room...") lHmMm^mMm?½mxraH^xmH3tn^m^mwiQxm :kfa&mHmHiiaxmQm^mxmpmwih&^ ymHihxmxmHiratacaimmxmxg^xHx^ xiaimxmkmkx^iamxmRmifli^m^ta^miiixiftiammx Norman says don't describe what the hired girl should look like ?╟÷ it's borrowing from later when the boys start to get interested in girls because of Milly -- i.e. they shouldn't be interested in girls at the top of the show. Maybe the first song should be about what a tough country it is ?╟÷ maybe by describing things they think are wonderful about the life, but we think are terrible (e.g. a bath every spring is wonderful) set the ambiance for what life was like then a comedy song if possible In Wagon on way into town: the aunt can come up with the idea of marrying instead of getting a hired gal ?╟÷ while you're in town, get a hired gal?╟÷ but sign up now for a wife ?╟÷ it's what you really should do.
