Both Holden and Therese were still asleep, but I loved the greenish glow to the sunrise in their room so I took a picture :) I tried to put the walls up, but I wasn’t quick enough and the light changed before I could get a second pic!
It looks like it’s Therese’s morning to get up early with little Jessica!
Off to make pancakes for breakfast!
Rian and Britta got engaged literally the day before, but it looks like Stacia is not to be outdone! I guess this means I should think about moving these two in together as Dewey still lives with his ex wife Joline! Talk about awkward!
And I may not be playing these sims, but woohoo! Another SP marriage!
Holden went to the Bistro for lunch. I don’t know why it looks like he’s walking through the wall because when I put the walls up, there is actually a double door and it’s fully functional..LOL! I don’t know. The Sims certainly has it’s random glitches sometimes!
Sondra and Lynn Decker were there.
And some adorable wild horses! These are probably the only two in town, if memory serves me I believe I’ve limited them to two via the register Mod by NRAAS. Those Mods are indispensable!
Holden stopped to admire the planters at the restraunt.
I popped out of the household for a bit to get Stacia and Rose settled in with Dewey. I just swapped houses. So I figured in the divorce, Joline let him have the house, but took all of their dogs. She wound up moving into Stacia and Britta’s old house since it’s just her and the dogs. Anyway, when I got back to the Wozny’s Holden was getting home and it was nearing nightfall. Therese was just leaving work.
She did a bit of networking online and then it was off to bed for everyone!
Goodbye Wozny family! I will be coming back to you, several years in the future!
Oh gosh! There is a LOT going on in Thicket as we near the end of the rotation! I’ve been playing ahead and I’m sharing some random pics as well as a few that will give a little preview of what’s to come! These first screenshots are just from testing different lighting mods when I was picking one for the Summer in the City playthrough! Top two are with Frozen and the bottom two are from Perfect Day both by @brntwaffles.
I know I’m not playing the Saavedra’s anymore, but I thought I’d let you all know that Evan has successfully aged into a toddler! And you’ve probably never seen Freddy’s ears up close, but Evan definitely inherited them! LOL!
I’ve been working on the last house in the Daisy Grove subdivision. I’m loving the house, but it’s super close to the hill in back and on the side so I’ll need to do some serious play testing before upload to see if that causes too much bounce :/
Britta and Rian really don’t like cleaning, but they both really love hot dogs! And...
There are wedding bells in the near future!
Randal Stark has really been a man around town, lately. And as I’m sure you can see, he and Corrine ARE now officially an item, though they are both still dating other sims.
Normally, because I’m not playing Liam Cornelius either, I wouldn’t check in on him, but this is too funny! Liam is actually a higher ranking medical Dr. than Bobby Li is and not only that, but Vance McKay who is the boss of both of them is there! Well that and not to give away too much of the novel plot, but considering this is at the nectary, Liam getting drunk enough to get sick is NOT surprising!
Oh and one last thing! Apparently, Britta is on speaking terms with Stacia again! Maybe now that she’s engaged to Rian, she figures she can burry the hatchet..or maybe she’s there to congratulate Stacia...
Popping into the Walls household for their day! Well actually, it’s currently the middle of the night. Looks like they’ve got their hands full!
OMG! I just LOVE how Lynn put Gloria down in her crib and then headed upstairs to steal Patty’s bed so now aunt Patty gets to be the one who wakes up to take care of Gloria if she cries!
Meanwhile, Lynn is fast asleep. Don’t mind Jeanette awake and just staring at her at 3 in the morning. Nothing unsettling about that! LOL!
Jeanette decided to make use of her early start and finished homework before watching tv. She was just about to go get breakfast when the school bus came!
Everybody’s off to work/school in this household and the baby sitter is taking care of Gloria, so I’m off to take random screenshots of the Old Towne area again.
Sondra is just getting off of work so I headed back to the house. Gloria was fast asleep and the sitter was playing with the family kitten..I keep forgetting that cat’s name!
The girls all had after school activities so when it was finally time to go home, they couldn’t get out of there fast enough!
It looks like it’s going to be a lovely fall evening!
Well I finally A) had some time to play and B) felt well enough to play so here we go! After dropping in on the Dexter's to collect yearly taxes it's back to the McCall household. As it turns out, my game was actually not corrupt I had forgotten to go back into the McCall household before exiting, however, my town was still crazy overpopulated.
Gianna is sleeping while Heather plays computer games and cleans house. Daniel is out for lunch at the L'Etoile Java Hut where he ran into Sondra Decker and Rebeccah.
The boys on the other hand, have finished school for the day and went to the arcade. Trevor is busy chatting up Kelli Pullen while Javon is playing games.
Back home it's time for homework. I like to try to see what the sims are watching on tv! The boys should be aging up before the end of this rotation!
Here is the rest of the day with the Walls/Decker family! The last time I played, I ran into Noel and it made me so sad! I think I’ve made the hard decision to bump the major characters out of rotation of playthrough because it just seems weird to me to see them as their sim selves since I’ve been writing so much. I will be deciding on replacement families to follow. So the families to be replaced are Wright, Saavedra, Newcomb, Petersen and Davies. The non played households I will also not be following include Tovar, Breen, Dupuis and Cornelius. Now, they’ll still be living their lives in the background so you may see them from time to time, but Phillip will not be played when I play Lynn Decker and Gloria Wright. Now without further adieu, here is Lynn, hanging out at the apartment of Anwar Smalley (a young adult while she’s still a teen!) at close to 2am while her daughter sits on the porch of the Hastings family unattended!
The next morning, Lynn was up bright and early to take care of little Gloria. They’re so cute together!
Don’t mind my lack of photography skills LOL!
Mom and Dad are both at work so it’s up to middle daughter, Patty to make pancakes for breakfast.
I always like to see what the view would be if you’re in the house doing dishes. You may have noticed, I like to put the kitchen sinks in front of windows :)
The family got a kitten! I don’t remember it’s name, but it’s soooooo cute!!
It’s a hot day, so once Sondra was home from work, Lynn ran to the ice cream shop to eat the popsicle she bought at home...ok, Lynn, that makes a lot of sense.
Meanwhile, Patty and Jeanette walked to the beach. It was pretty busy!
The whole family met up at the Summer Fair.
..And they all entered eating contests! Oops! I realized I kept them so busy all day that no one had eaten anything since breakfast!
Lynn ate too much and wound up getting sick! Yuck!
Time to say goodbye to the Walls family for the week!
Sondra Walls has waited for years for her fiancé Willard to pop the question, but there's no sign of him doing that any time soon. Meanwhile their three daughters are growing up. Will Willard every propose? Will Sondra decide she doesn't need him to make that official commitment? Or will Sondra get fed up with waiting and pursue another sim and how will the growing tensions in the house affect Lynn, Patty and young Jeanette?
