I know it's super hard to believe, but I do have a life outside of TSR. Lately, the Andretti Legacy has been pushed to the back burner. For that, I apologize. But, let me explain...

For the past 6 months, I've been planning a surprise birthday party for my mother (also a TSR member) for her 50th birthday. It took everything I had plus some to get this thing underway and make it happen. Well, it happened and she was super shocked and had no idea about any of it. So, that in itself was a great accomplishment for me.

During that time, I've had to battle many reproductive dramas and will continue to battle them as my case is not as common, and there's no 'fix' for me other than another major surgery that I'm not ready for.

Now that the party is over, and it would seem that the reproductive dramas are very small...Lovey and I have decided to get our own place...FINALLY. But, with that comes many issues...no computer, no internet for the computer, and many other moving catastrophes...including making my cat who is mainly outdoor completely indoor. Now, that will be a real headache.

Either way, I will need to purchase a brand new computer. One to run Sims 3 and then we'll need to invest in Tivo for Lovey and internet for me. I will get the computer first, obviously...and will load my Sims 2 onto it for the time being and continue to take screenshots and carry them over to my mother's to upload some Andretti updates. So, bear with me...I really appreciate all your patience.

Speaking of the Andretti's and Sims 3...yeah, you guessed it...they'll be moving to Sunset Valley as soon as the game hits the shelf (and assuming I have a computer at this time). If not, I'll buy the game and drool over it every day until I get a computer. Anyway, I'll keep updating until I get to the point where the switch-over will occur, then I will notify all of you that I won't be uploading anymore until Sims 3. Don't worry, there's still two months to go!

So, all in all...real life is just as crazy as ever and don't expect too much, but be thankful for what you get.
