Free schedule and upcoming items
After the disappointment of The Sims 3 being delayed, I thought I'd set up a schedule of items which will be free between now and the release date! Here is the schedule, so make sure you grab them while they're free!
| Item | Free from |
Free until |
| Weighted Companion Cube | Feb 7th | Mar 7th |
| Work It! | Mar 7th | Apr 4th |
| Keyhole Tops and Denim Shorts | Apr 5th | May 3rd |

If you're a subscriber, of course, you can download those sets any time, but I've got plenty coming up for you too! I'm nearing completion of my range of home video consoles for your Sims. The base game version of the PlumbBOX 360 has been released, and a Free Time compatible version will follow soon after. Check out the poll on the front page of my minisite, and let me know what you want me to make after I've finished this range. I've currently got an elegant dining set planned, but this is a very large set so may take some time to complete, especially as I'm very busy with Uni work right now :)
Create-a-style in Sims 3
This was definitely my favourite feature in Sims 3. Although this was explained several times before, I realised some people are still a bit confused about how it works. So I made a sketch from what I can remember while playing the game.

When I say "objects", I mean furniture, walls, build items, clothes, etc. Basically anything that is made with patterns can be customisable using the create-a-style feature. A player can spend hours just using this tool and making unique stuff. And the best part is that they can make virtually anything inside the game match! :D
I hope this sketch helped!

Back Somewhat
Um, my hiatus from TSR lasted a bit longer than expected. My PC died while I was moving. I've got myself set up on an old PC now, but it is kind of creaky and does not enjoy working with the EA stuff at all. We'll just have to hope for the best and see how things go!
my life is over....well a main part of it atleast
swimming is now done. i was so excited to be done with this season, but i was not really ready to be done forever. i dont think the reality of it will set in until next october when the season would start up again. its been the main and constant part of my life for the last 9 years. i know that i wont ever really let it go, but its just not the same when you are no longer part of a team and participating in competitions. ive made some of my best friends through swimming and i know ill never lose them, but think of how many more i could gain if i was allowed to swim forever. of course my injury prevents that, and old age (not that 22 is old, but swimming is starting to take its toll on my body already). i also dont know if i could mentally handle never getting any better times for some of my events. it was hard enough being fustrated with my times for this season, even though i made some great lifetime best times in the fly. i need a swim vacation, not retirement. atleast i still get to spend some time at the pool teaching a friend how to swim so she canjoin the team next year :) there is also always studying to be done, but who wants to do that?

An unmentionable wind problem...
So it seems with one of the TSR servers or some such like. There is a lot of wind where once my sets resided on the servers. I feared my creations were probably unpleasant enough to cause unmentionable gaseous disturbances but an antedote to the windiness has already kicked into play, and all files will be back later today.
That's unfortunate for you, isn't it? Sorry about the nasty niff of my minisite in the meantime.
New to me...
I know that most Simmers have had their share of problems with SecureRom since at least Bon Voyage, but I have felt extremely lucky not to have had any problems with my game and felt very bad for those that had come across some very serious issues that SecureRom has caused. I have almost all the EP's and SP's, and knock on wood no problems until I downloaded the Apartment Life patch a couple of days ago. I now can't even start my game! (Emulation Software Error) I know that there are fixes out there, but this has really cheesed me off and I think I will be taking a break from the Sims for a while to cool down. I guess my biggest problem is that there is no offical fix to this and you have to go to numerous different sites to find clear, working answers. At this moment, the only reason I am not cancelling my Sims3 order is because my wonderful friend bought it for me for my birthday. Between not fixing known problems, sending out known buggy software and delaying release of a game simply because they want to sell more copies a head of time, I can't think of a good reason to want to continue buying their merchandise. This is just my opinion, and I am not trying to talk anyone else out of enjoying the game. I am just simply ranting and feeling sorry for myself.

thank you!!
Incase you comment on any of my screenshots/stories and I forgotten to say thank you to you then thats what this blog is for, it's like a thank you note. I'm normaly too busy to even play sims but when I do I take a lot of screenies....lol. I want to write more stories but with three kids all under the age of eight thats a bit hard to do, so I'll mainly stick to screenshots until my youngest is in school. Anyways I just want to say thank you to everyone that has commented or wil comment on my screenshots and a BIG thanks to all the wonderful CC creators ;) keep up the great work and happy simming to everyone
End of February Updates!
Here's some updates for you guys. I hope you enjoy them.
Remember, as always, the jewelry comes in two versions; Base Game and Bon Voyage.
Here's another lot for you guys. It has a very large courtyard in the middle of the lot with a pool and lots of flora. There's a home business above the garage. The master bedroom is large with a sitting area and a very big bathroom with a walk-in closet. There is lots of extras: clubhouse, billard/lounge area, hobby room, sunroom/reading room.
