Now I'm fairly sure that i thought that the EP was out this weekend, I'm so sure this was this case, I was upset I couldn't have the afternoon off....so when i read today that it's out next weekend I was most upset :-(....so I don't know why I thought it was out this weekend, never mind!!..

Well its Saturday, and am I glad about That. The whole weekend ahead to play Sims..hmm, bliss...only 6 days to go to the new Expansion comes out(7 if you want to be picky, but I never count the day I'm on..)and I really can't wait. I've formulated a plan, my Sim is living it up in the Rectory, I've got her cooking, gardening and handiness skills to max and I'm working on her althletic, fishing and painting skills...I figured if I could get those to max then wandering around doing challenges and exploring tombs would be easier..I'm trying to find all the collectables too, so it will be easier to find all the new stuff in world adventures, I can find all the butterflies, rocks and gems but there is just one beetle left and I can't find it anywhere in Sunset Valley or Riverview(Trilobite Beetle)...I'm determined that I will find it eventually..sorry, that my SIM with find it eventually...I popped into EAStore yesterday too and its the first time I've hesitated buying anything...i was hoping for new hair, and there is one for the ladies, but..meh..not bothered by it...the kids stuff looks nice too but I don't spend a great deal of time playing babies or children so I'm not fussed by that set either..oh well, I will just have to be patient and wait for the new EP..(I hate being patient, I'm a very 'want it now' person, i was spoilt rotten when i was younger(a benefit of having siblings much older than me), and although I do try to act like a mature adult...well..life is for living (so I want it NOW)...

On another note, we had our first frost of this season this morning, everyone is scraping away at their windscreens..so i guess Winter is well on its way, although we have had very unseasonal weather, its been quite warm up until today, and we are well into November...I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for some nice snow for Christmas day though...

Hope everyone has a great weekend...:-)

Well I'm feeling better today, had a few afternoons off work and its seemed to have done the trick, no more sniffles and I'm not feeling so lethargic (yay)..but its given me enough free time to finish my new lot off..

(although I have no idea what I'm going to do next!), I've eventually managed to update my gallery, spend a huge amount of time going through all the lovely patterns I've downloaded and uploaded some screenshots of some of the patterns on the Octane suit from the store(I've probably mentioned that I Love that suit!!), but I haven't really actually played with my sims for a while, I think i have actually got bored of gardening(which isn't bad since I've been obsessed with it for 5 months)...can't wait until the expansion comes out, about time too I say(!)

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Well, first i ought to apologise for being a prolific blogger(even though its only my second today lol)...today has not been the best day ever..I've been busy all afternoon, and I've come back for some R&R only to find that I have broken my profile page..booo hooo...don't know what I've done but I've definately done something! Its telling me there is too many connections...Zend_Db_Adapter_Exception SQLSTATE[00000] [1040] Too many connections...so i'm flummoxed!!

Well, its Sunday...doesn't the weekend seem to go quick..(even when you're doing nothing)...(except playing Sims, of course)..Its coming up to 9am..(I think)(it looks like the clocks have moved back, so there is digital clocks saying one thing and other clocks telling a different time, tooooooooo confusing at this time of the morning!!!)..anyway, I'm playing with 'Rectory' at the moment, and also fiddling with a new house I built...I'm using Ms First to decorate again, and its made me wonder if it would be possible to play all the homes in Sunset Valley with just one Sim..do you think it would confuse the game if there was, say, 30 exact copies of the same sim running around!...no other sims..or is that too weird! I'm seriously thinking about this, at least every Sim would have someone who has lots in common with them!! LOL.....Anyway...I'm feeling pretty pooh today, I've got something (!?!), probably just a cold, been a bit stretched out recently so its no surprise really...and its back to work tomorrow (so I hope I feel marginally better tomorrow, or I'm gonna be a grump!)..Yay!

Hope everyone has a great Sunday...

I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone downloading my lots...i've just had my fourth lot approved and its going to be published tomorrow...

I've taken a bit of time to play this one whilst decorating inside, there is various veggies planted in the garden, and a few things round the house to make it look a little lived in, or you can just sell all that stuff and make money...hope everyone likes it...:-).

Have a great rest of the week...

Well...it gives you loads of time to sit on TSR all day reading stories and build/play the Sims...on my fourth lot at the moment..my first two (Thank you to everyone who's downloaded them) were ones I'd built a while ago and needed tweaking for uploading, my third was a lot I built in Sims2 a lot, in various different decor styles and I'm trying to build a new one at the moment which is loosely based on a lovely Rectory I stayed in just outside of Boscastle on holiday a couple of years ago...

I'm still decorating internalyl and externally and what with it being a work day tomorrow (oh joy!) I don't know when I will finish it. I've also had a bit of a busy weekend, I decided that if I was going to build and submit lots then I needed a bit of a tidy up of my patterns, so i uninstalled the Sims3 totally and reinstalled it and re-downloaded everything, so hopefully I've only got TRSAA patterns in my folders now.

I ought to take a bit of a break now, spent 15 hours(!!) on the computer yesterday and 5 so far today...but I really need to dye my hair today(I'm a bit of an oldie)(not that old!) grey bits are begining to show(eeeek)and I've got a million other things I Should be doing(but probably won't)(like the cleaning and hoovering)(a womans work is never done!) and I really should go to the toilet too(although if i just stayed here the fabric of my chair would probably soak up any accidents I have!)(eeewwww!!!!).

Although to be honest I'd much rather be on here, I can interact with people who like the same things as me whereas in real life I tend to get the 'HOW old are you' look when I mention the Sims or gaming in general...I'm probably going to be playing Sims and shooting things on a updated version of the playstation or Xbox when I'm eighty(hopefully).

Hope everyone has a great rest of the weekend and Thanks again to everyone downloading my lots, i still can't believe how many people have!!

Well it is the Morning here in England...I'd like to thank everyone again for downloading my lots..when I last blogged I'd had a few downloads on my Panorama lot and I was quite chuffed, its now reached 220 and I'm HUGELY chuffed..for my first lot i think its done quite well. I've only had one comment on it so far and a big Thank you to spitzmagic for that, but I'd really like some more...i'd love to have some feedback on whether people like it or not, and which aspects of they liked or disliked and if they have had any problems with it. I guess since i haven't had any negative feedback so nothing drastic is wrong with it, but i know some people just don't have time to comment as they are straight into playing, i used to be like that when I played Sims2, i'd run around TSR at a frantic pace downloading everything i liked then went straight to the game to play.

Anyway, I've recently updated my 'Road Hill House', and I now have a third lot in Pending so I hope it gets approved too..

so if it is published I hope everyone likes it..!!

Have a great weekend..

My lot 'Panorama' was approved yesterday, and was published today...I thought it was CC free though, I spent ages taking all the store bought items out, but after i had submitted the lot I realised i had missed a couple..and I had also missed 3 Patterns aswell so I would like to say a big 'Sorry' to Murano and Shakeshaft for missing these and not giving credit where it was due. These two patterns did make a bit of a difference to the original lot, and they are both great patterns, the 'Links' by Shakeshaft that i use in a variety of colours on numerous objects..and Muranos 'Bamboo' which i also use just about everywhere...So a big thank you to them for making them and letting us use them in our lots....I'd also like to say a HUGE thankyou to everyone who has downloaded it..I didn't really know if anyone would like it and I hope you have fun playing it, as I have..I've had large families and a group of friends and a young aspiring rock star live in it and it always seems to run well...so Enjoy...Cheers.
