pets fix :(
Pfff, I don't know it anymore, I've followed exactly what TSR told me to do to "fix pets" and now I can't upload my furnished houses. Does anyone know another way to patch everything? I'm getting kind of desperate :(
Home Again
Aaahhh...there's no place like home. Truly. I am home again. My parents moved me back about a week ago. You'd think they could let go of their baby but no, neither one wanted to move me back. It's nice to be loved but really, I'm 37 and a mom myself. I need my space and privacy.
So it's been good being home. I missed my bed a lot. I have a lot of stairs in my townhouse so that's been a challenge with a broken foot. I'm not fully recovered from the whole blood clot thing either. I get winded going up the stairs. I'm lugging a huge walking boot on my foot though and that isn't light. But, all in all, I'm doing pretty well. I'm walking on my own now with the boot instead of hobbling around like an old lady with a walker and crutches. A few more weeks and I can wear regular shoes and start driving. I broke my right foot so it's been so frustrating asking people to run errands and stuff for me. I've always been overly independent so something like this is just killing me. I hate asking for help.
I'm still spending time with my sims. No holiday stuff for them. Kind of pointless without seasons, which, by the way, was one of my favorite things about Sims 2. Autumn is my favorite season and my sims lived it every day. The heck with summer and winter is such a drag. C'mon, I live in Illinois. We don't have nice winters here. Like I really want to see that crap in my game too. I do wish the gift giving was more involved in Sims 3. One sim pulls a box with a bow out of his butt and gives it to another sim that holds it, says thanks, then tucks it in their butt. You could give them vomit and they'd be happy. What's it matter what's inside? They never open it. I basically use it to pass stuff back and forth between sims. It's seems extra loving that way. *cough*
I've decided I'm deleting the stupid imaginary friend dolls from now on. Ugly things. And they cancel my sims queue all the time to pillow fight. I just want them to go away. I have a household with 6 kids in it. Four have the dumb dolls that are now walking sacks of s**t. I'll just make them real when the kids move out and kill them off or something. They have horrible traits and I bet if you make them real they're fugly as well. I'd have to cheat and take them into CAS and edit everything to make it tolerable. One kid has a particularly mean one. It stalks the house, waiting to pounce on him from behind to scare the living daylights out of him. What kind of friend is that? That one is dying an ugly death. I think fire will do nicely. Or a long, agonizing stent of starvation in the garden. He can be fertilizer. Probably kill my plants though.
Oh, and here's something I've been wondering. Why did EA make the new dishwasher that matches the new cowboy cabinets the crappy cheap one? I have a lovely kitchen that my sims can't stand to be in because of that thing. It looks gorgeous! But that dishwasher. They all have to pile in and complain about the noise. Thank you all, just leave the room. Leave. The. Room. Don't you think those cabinets are classy enough that the matching dishwasher should be a really nice, QUIET one? Ugh.
OK, well I suppose I should shut up about my sim pet peeves and go do something constructive with my life, like laundry. It's so nice to be home.
Not being able to play, for months now
I can't play with my Sims 3 game - it crashes my computer. I have been emailing forums and customer service and all, but no help came. I'm pretty pissed off now. I think I will switch back to the Sims 2 or something... I also wanted to finish the Bong story, and uploaded half of the second part, but I need more pics, which would requre a reinstallation, and I'm fed up...
:((((
FREE SET FOR DECEMBER
This month you can download my most popular staircase - Pirouette stairs and railings. Hope you enjoy it.

Beds, Beds, and more Wonky Beds!
What's New!
I plan to start updating my Sims 3 beds next week for the Pets EP; I have 7 beds and 1 bathtub to fix so that their animation is no longer wonky in game. I have already patched my Sims 3 game, installed the latest version of TSR Workshop, "fixed" the custom content in my download folder, and next week, I hope to finally get around to installing The Sims 3: Pets EP on my hard drive. Wish me luck, my game is running great now and I'm afraid of "breaking it!"
Retro Modern Kitchen Etc., December 5th
Retro Modern Kitchen Etc., is a mini Sims 3 set (8 new meshes), which is scheduled for publication on December 5th. I finally completed the set's retro-styled dishwasher and trash compactor, and I have conquered my fear of geostates, LOL! The set also includes a working espresso machine, 2 pantry cabinets, and a few decorative clutter objects.
My Upcoming Sims 3 Projects?
My next project will most likely be another bedroom set, once I fix my older beds for The Sims 3: Pets EP. Depending on the popularity of the Retro Modern Kitchen Etc. set, I may create additional objects for the kitchen (another mini-set); I never get tired of creating kitchen clutter!
Take Care and Happy Simming,
Carolyn



Next upload:
I'm working on a new lot - a large ranch with stables and pastures for the horses :). Should be up next week! ~Pieta
