Posted by Cyclonesue on Jan 29, 2010• What am I supposed to do with THIS?!

So, all this stuff...  Exactly HOW do I arrange this pile of doo-doo into sets?!  The theme starts this weekend and yet I don't even think I've finshed!.  It takes me on average three days to prepare screens for a set (this includes an approx 2.5 days of doing anything BUT screenshots in a massive sweep of procrastination) and I still want to make another couple of ladders, a dustbin or two, piles of house bricks and even see whether the old car wreck I made in Sims 2 is salvageable for Sims 3.  I'm not big on converting Sims 2 stuff (it's mostly proved impossible and 'repeats' like the tyres are brand new remakes), but I do really want that old junk car.

But setting stupid ambitions aside, the main problem is what do I do with a water pump, a lawn mower and a broken gnome?!  Hardly a set in its own right, yet they don't sit comfortably with a broken toilet seat and pile of tyres either!  It's all my stupid fault; iinstead of making things that actually go together, I just went junk-mad.  Someone should stop me.  Really, someone should, because I just get carried away and now I have all this to shovel into some kind of collection of sets.

For sure, I'm sorry, but you can't count on me stopping you doing what you are doing ... I know, I'm somewhat insane, but I love your junk (There may be those houses which really are absolutely free of it, but if you look for long enough, you'll mostly find it somewhere, carefully hidden from visitors' eyes, but not from eagleeyed simsjeanie ... )

"What do I do with a water pump, a lawn mower and a broken gnome?!" It should be quite easy to turn this into a set as those pieces fit together perfectly. The broken gnome is obviously a result of an accident with the lawn mover. And where do we hide the broken gnome? We stuff it in a broken toilet, of course. But now we've got a broken toilet right in the middle of our garden. Though it might look artistically decadent, some faint-hearted individuals could suffer from a shock after seeing this masterpiece so we should make some improvements, namely we hide it under a pile of old tires, pour the water from the water pump inside those tires and as the water leaks out of every hole, we can declare that it's a post-apocalyptic fountain. You see, it's easy. Now you can call the set "A Garden of Doom" and if anyone complains, we will know that the person obviously knows nothing about art

I say you keep it all in one set, and call it: "The garden club's worst nightmare." or " Junk for your dump" or "Urban Art" or "Procastinator's Dream"

No....   are you getting tired of junk? Or is it just because it gives you a lot of work...?   Now and again you may ignore us (but not to often please). We all the things you're doing.

Looks like you cleared out your shed. That's what normal people tend to do when winter is over ...I do.... I have stuff like that on the attic, in the shed and under my bed even... Don't worry. If you say it's a set it's a set. A set I really want because it looks SUPER COOL.
