Hello, Sunshine ♥ @sunflowerplumbobs - Tumblr Blog

It's been while, let's catch up!

The last time I made one of these posts when January 2022 and I had just moved back to Ohio, which is crazy its already been almost 2 years since I've been back in Ohio already.

Let's see...I'm back working at Walmart but I'm in the vision center, working on getting my optician's license. I got my job back at Walmart in February of 2022 but I was stocking grocery, which I really didn't like tbh lol but then the vision center manager asked if I wanted a spot she had open to help direct patient's where to go and help clean, etc. I said yes and I ended up really enjoying it up there and eventually that led to me becoming an apprentice optician and working toward my license. There's a test I have to take to get my license and I've been studying for that...so that's been fun.

I've also started writing again. Not for Sims stories unfortunately but I've been working on two books. I have one that I've been wanting to finish since I was 15 (I'm about to be 30 next month, which is also crazy). And I have one that is a newer idea that I got inspired to write from a couple book series I've read. I'm hoping I'll hold onto this inspiration for awhile and actually finish these stories...but we'll see lol

Since this is a Sims blog I'll update on that too...I haven't played in the past few weeks, mostly because I've been reading or writing in my free time. I do have a current household that I've been enjoying though. With Horse Ranch coming out, I recreated Lucas Benson (different last name this time though), a Sim I loved in Sims 3 and have tried multiple times to recreate in Sims 4 but those recreations never stuck. But I realized what was missing...horses, lol. The original Lucas from Sims 3 was a horse rancher. I like this version of Lucas though. He is married and has a daughter, as well as 2 horses and a dog. I was doing a sort of rags to riches style story with them so that's been keeping me entertained.

I think that's all the major things I wanted to say? At least for now.

I don't post on here anymore but maybe one day I will again. We'll see.

Still love you guys though ♥

Actually screaming on the inside at how they basically told queerphobes and exclus to please fuck off and explicitly included us aspecs even beyond aesthetics like the pride flags and nail polishes

My save so far...part two:

So, multiple times Raina tried to flirt with Rory and Rory was having nothing to do with her even though fate was telling them they were meant to be together. Raina decided to go against fate and started dating Lou. Even though it felt wrong to date someone else, she developed feelings for him. He’s sweet, treats her well even though he is a little bit wild, she likes that about him.

After dating for awhile, Lou took Raina to the mountain peak, right as the full moon was rising, and asked her to marry him. She said yes ♥

They decided to exchange vows right then and there, instead of having a wedding. What’s more romantic than two werewolves declaring their love for each other under the full moon, hm?

#sunflowerplumbobs current household #the sims 4 werewolves #the sims 4 #ts4 #sims 4

My save so far...

I used a Sim named Raina Greenwood I had created forever ago but never did anything with and moved her to Moonwood Mill. She quickly discovered that werewolves existed and made quick friends with The Wildfangs, Rory and Lou. She asked Rory to make her a werewolf too and joined their pack. Raina also discovered that Rory is her fated mate but Rory hasn’t been too accepting of Raina’s romantic advances so far, so we’ll see what happens there...

She also found a stray dog named Ducky and adopted her. Ducky loves to follow Raina all around town, always staying close to her side. (I absolutely love the fact that a big, bad werewolf has a small, fluffy dog, lol.)

Raina has gotten the nocturnal, excitable and carnivore temperaments so far. Her goal is to one day be Alpha of The Wildfangs...it’ll be interesting to see how Rory feels about that.

And there you have it :) That’s basically my expiernece so far with the new pack. I’m having a lot of fun with it, especially finding out more about all the lore. I have another save I’ve been playing where my 4th generation heir will be becoming a werewolf and I’m excited to do a different path with her. But for now I’m having fun with Raina and Ducky ♥

The Sims 4 My Wedding Stories Game Pack

Take a trip down the aisle in The Sims™ 4 My Wedding Stories Game Pack*! Make your Sim’s journey to their big day special, then plan the perfect ceremony. From the proposal to the reception, customize each aspect to celebrate every Sim’s love story in a way that truly feels unique to them. In the world of Tartosa, (almost) anything becomes romantic.

PREP TO PARTY Popping the question is just the beginning of your Sim’s wedding experience. Once they’ve said yes, the excitement and nerves set in—there’s so much to plan! Choose the Sim of Honor to make the journey to the altar as fun as possible. Then, bring on the engagement dinner, rehearsal, and a last single night out to remember.

BRING YOUR VISION TO LIFE Get into the details of upcoming nuptials as Sims select their wedding day attire and everything else they’ll need for the big moment: menu, decor, schedule… all of it! Tour venues designed by community creators as Sims try cakes, consider flowers, and settle on the traditions that will make their day most meaningful.

TIE THE KNOT Before the main event, celebrate with family at a rehearsal dinner. When it’s finally time, feel the love and live out every fantasy. Exchange vows, rings, and kisses at the altar before the real celebration starts. Kick it off by serving tea for the family, or head right to the reception. Newlyweds and guests alike can dance with loved ones, while the new spouses cut the cake, give toasts, and receive well wishes.

The Sims 4 My Wedding Stories is available on February 17th, 2022, on all platforms!

* REQUIRES THE SIMS 4 (SOLD SEPARATELY) AND ALL GAME UPDATES. SEE MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PACK.

So...I found the updated Berry Pastel Rainbowcy Challenge rules by @sweetlysimss the other night.

My original BPR was my favorite family I’ve ever had in the Sims. And I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a new BPR...but I wasn’t sure because I don’t have berry CC (or any CC for that matter) and you can’t really do a berry challenge without berry sims right?

But I was still inspired and I created some potential founders that are vanilla sims.

This is Candace “Candy” Sundae and her cat, Sterling.

Her childhood friend, August Moon (Purple Shirt) and his friend, Dane Bloom (Pink Shirt).

Will I do anything with these Sims? I have no idea, lol. The updated rules inspired me though so we will see what happens.

I also have another project I’m going to start working on soon that I will be revealing in then near future...so keep an eye out for that too ♥

► BERRY PASTEL RAINBOWCY - UPDATED VERSION ◄

It is finally here! After weeks of working on this challenge, I can finally say that I am done and ready to start playing 👀 But first, let me introduce you to the challenge!

After the ungodly amount of love I received after sharing the NSB updated rules, I figured why not continue this trend and update one of my favorite berry legacies on this planet! Similarly to the NSB updated rules, I wanted to make the Berry Pastel Rainbowcy challenge by @berrysweetboutique more challenging and add content from the newer packs to the challenge to make it more current. That being said, this challenge first and foremost belongs to Berry, who kindly gave me permission to share this updated rules version of her beloved legacy challenge!

► WHAT ABOUT THE RULES? ◄

Similarly to the NSB updated challenge, the rules will be posted in a google document for easy access and to enable me to edit the rules whenever I want/need to. In the google document, I have listed the original rules as well so you are able to choose between playing with the original rules or playing with the updated rules. Also, this gives you an overview of what changed and what remained the same. Feel free to skip or add objectives as you play, you don’t have to stick to the objectives I’ve laid out for you, but they’re there if you would like to play around with them!

SEND ME TO THE GOOGLE DOC!

Full House - The Cottage Challenge

Since the launch of the Cottage Living expansion, I've seen several simmers asking their followers if they should make LP with the new pack, so, through this new challenge, I come to say: YES, DO SOME COTTAGECORE LP.

In short, this challenge aims to combine the gameplay of simulation with the build mode, and consists of starting to play with a grieving family, who decide to buy an abandoned farm house, and make it a home. You will have to work hard to earn money and renovate the lot as the family grows larger and larger.

Your goal is to end up with the farm 100% revitalized and with eight sims. If you're not very familiar with build mode, don't worry! I built the house so that it is easy to expand, and the backyard areas are also well divided.

Required:

In order to fully enjoy this lot, you will need: Cottage living, snowy scape, eco lifestyle, discover university, island living, seasons, cats & dogs, city living, get together, get to work, strangerville, parenthood, outdoor retreat, paranormal stuff pack, and laundry day stuff pack.

Yes, maybe I got too excited and ended up using too many different packs as I built. I'm sorry.

Rules:

- Don't cheat! Ok, you'll have to cheat one time to buy the lot, but just this one time!;

- No full-time jobs. You're sims can only have part-time jobs. Your goal is to work with the farm;

- Only the house expansions can have a modern theme. The original construction should continue with a cottage theme.

Hints:

- Take a good look at the trash before getting rid of it. I may have hidden some cool stuff over there (but don't be fooled, nothing is going to give you a lot of money);

- Always play with bb.moveobjects on.

How to start:

- Create your household with 3 sims. The house is already equipped with the worst double bedroom in the world, but usable, an acceptable bedroom with a single bed, and a makeshift attic room.

If you don't want to spend time on CAS, check out the Littlelion household, that I created for this challenge and will be using it for my own game.

- Select a season (it's up to you!);

- Go to Henford-On-Bagley and move your household to 2 Olde Mill Lane;

- The lot that we're using it's worth $31.039, so, ops, you don't have that much money. So you'll have to cheat. But just this one time!;

- With your game paused, so you don't waste your sims time, press ctrl + shift + c;

- Type: testingcheats true

- Press enter;

- Type: Money 40000

- Press enter;

- Type: bb.moveobjects on

- Press enter;

- Press ctrl + shift + c to close the cheat bar and now you're good to go!;

- Go to the gallery and find the right lot. It's name is "Full House Challenge", and my ID is arut3mis. You can also find the right lot with the hashtags #FullHouseChallenge #CottageChallenge #SimmerMaya and #arut3mis.

- Now you place the furnished lot;

- Explore your own too-old-but-new cottagecore life! And good luck.

Goals:

- Renovate and expand the house. It has to be comfortable for eight sims;

- Change the old fences;

- Revitalize the pond;

- Get rid of all the garbage;

- Grow your planting;

- Build a greenhouse;

- Go through, at least, 5 generations (so you don't need to do any renovations in a hurry). If five generations isn't enough for you to renovate the whole lot, do more!

- Have at least 1 hen, 1 rooster, 1 llama and 1 cow all the time;

- Finish your challenge with eight sims living on the lot, not counting cats and dogs (you can have cats and dogs if you use a mod to expand your sims limit).

Looking for a nightmare challenge? Don't worry, let's make it harder:

If you are looking for a harder challenge, try playing with short lifespan AND/OR add make de lot haunted.

Let's take a better look at the lot now.

It's dirty, abandoned, dark, overgrown, it has stains everywhere and fallen trees. The furniture in the house is precarious and old.

The lot size is 50x40, and it's purposely not the biggest lot available in the game. That's why it's called Full House.

I've already made the lot to come with Simple Living and Wild Foxes challenges. And the traits are On Ley Line and Homey. There is a trait space available for you to add something if/as you like.

You can see more pics of the house here

That's all, folks. I hope you like it and have fun!
