Nothing to loose. Bought a dump. Better make the best of it. As newly weds we don't care too much about everything, just each other!

Nothing to loose. Bought a dump. Better make the best of it. As newly weds we don't care too much about everything, just each other! The new flooring arrived late yesterday afternoon. The place is starting to look more like us! The new "second hand" couch looks much better than the old ones. It had bugs living in it! All the hard work! We'd really love to be settled in within a month or two. In the meantime I have to get a job. Working in the Army means you have to get up at 5 in the morning. Owen and I both love music and we plan on bying a big fat old stereo as soon as we have the money saved. Since I took the army job I definately have less time to spend with my husband! Lord have mercy! Sometimes it's hard to relax. It's been work work work lately. Auntie Grace gave us her old chairs. We went to IKEA and bought a dining table. I dream of a nice big glass table. Some day we will buy it. Some of the neighbours are real sports! They come over and lend a hand or two fixing the place up. This spring we'll plant some flowers and bushes and trees and throw a nice spring party. But for now, it's winter. The oddest thing, Owen ran into a strange woman today She says she's a witch. Whatever... Finally, the weather is nice enough to spend the days outside! For extra money I started to give some hula lessons for the neighborhood youth. We should go on a vacation soon. Get away from it all. Owen is too preoccupied with this fishing and gardening thing. He doesn't even bother changing into something comfortable after work. Owen invited this lady over from the garden center. She was impressed with what we did to the garden in such a short time and we joined their club. The hard work finally payed off! Can we change this dump into our own paradise? YES WE CAN! Owen and I stayed up till dawn. We were sooo pleased with it all! I did get my long wish: A glas dining table! We are the happiest people on earth. There's also something strange about Owen... Therefor I took him on an all inclusive holiday. While we were on Twiki Island we bought our own cottage on the beach. It's just fab! We have our own little laguna. Need I say more? Owen reads alot. I think we won't have any children. The houses are our greatest concern. Owen likes his space alone and so do I. Back home, Owen seems to be able to talk to the animals. He turned into some ..I don't know...some kind of wizard. He studies this magic book all the time. We are happy though. I'm also into performing arts. Owen and I live a rich life! We will celebrate with the party tomorrow. That will be the end of this challenge. Yes we did it, and more than that! Yes, Owen and I have a perfect life together. We are retired now, Tomorrow it's off to Twiki Island, see if we need to do some painting on our second house there, Maybe we'll stay there...for good!

    I tried it myself, but the old lady was angry about waste in the garden when I invited her to join the gardenclub.I do have all the tasks done, but not the join the gardening club. It sucks, because I can't find the waste where's she's talking about! Did you have the same problem? And when I upload the package, my Sims have other names. So I have to make other Sims with the right names, because I'm not very good with SimPe. (Sorry for bad English, I'm Dutch \:\))
