Taking a break

I recently found my old Sims I Complete Collection discs and got to missing Sims the way they used to be. So I have uninstalled all (will probably hunt the downloads again later) but Double Deluxe (I will be using my defaults for eyes, skin, and makeup but just got to overwhelmed with to many downloads so got rid of furniture, hair objects for now. I am going to play with my sims I discs for a few weeks or months until Sims 3 comes out. I haven't played I since I first got Double Deluxe so it will seem almost like a new game. No rush to meet career and personal goals within a 29 day limit - no whining about college or wanting to own a pottery wheel or other things that seem to much like real life just plain old fashioned honest to God simming for a few weeks YAY!!! I will play and reminisce about the days when I could kill my sims off without feeling guilgy and never had to deal with a " HAVE TEN CHILDREN !!!!!!!!" LTW.

Probably will eventually re-install at least IKEA and H&M stuff and  download more stuff of course, the subscription is currently for 6 months and Sims 3 won't be out til June. I just don't feel like dealing with the overwhelming downloads folder right now - especially my hairs were getting out of control. Maxis hairs suckminimally in comparison to skin, eyes and makeup (at least in 2) but I am far to addicted to pretty hair and given the choice I would rather have pretty skin and eyes. At least with Ikea and H&M back in I can grab the H&M Sets by Bunny abnd Lisa86 and all of the IKEA stuff by Mutske, Shakeshaft, and so on. But first I wanna go play with the Goth family and renew my acquintance with the Newbies etc the way they used to be before EAXIs borked their genetics and their storylines.
