Talking about my sims :)

Heya Everyone :) ,

Firstly thank you all for taking the time to look at my page, i appreciate the views.

Secondly thank you for taking the time to read blog, i might not update everyday, but just knowing i have a few readers out there still helps me to keep going and to post some more blogs :)

Thirdly comments would be greatly appreciate on my images, i just want to see how many people out there like my screen shot i am taking and whether i should continue taking them or not. :)

Now, i shall talk about my main family i have currently been playing :)

They are called the Mansions, Father Frank and Mother Anne. I have been playing this family for a very long time and when i mean long time i mean 4 generations long :) I am very proud with this family and i shall be uploading some more pictures. Frank and Anne together have 16 children. I am currently playing there daugther Tullip Cambela, whos husband just recently passes away of an unknown cause. (I was looking at the family tree and i noticed she had no partner when i hovered over her name, so i clicked on her and her husband wasnt there. I then clicked on one of their daugthers pictures and the father was in black and white. The weird thing is the father was only a adult, so im guessing he died of starvation or he drown) Tullip and her recently deceased husband Joey had two twin daughters together and their names are Trina and Norma. Trina has her mothers eyes, but fathers hair and Norma has her grandpa franks hair and her fathers eyes.

Whilst going around town and looking at the third generation, i have seen alot of recessiviness in the children. Some dont have their parents eyes, but their grandparents or the hair isnt the same, i found this very odd. I have currently seen a fourth generation started as Tullips twin sisters daugther has just gotten married and had a baby girl. I intend on playing this family for as long as possible, but the sad thing is, i have recently had a few glitches oddly enough. One of Anne and Franks daugthers was married to her husband and they had two children together, but i just recently checked back on them and they were only friends. I then checked the family tree and the children still had them listed as their parents, but they were married. So i got them remarried and noticed another thing that was wrong.

Rodney is a third generation child and he has an adopted daugther. He lived with his parents in the household and he is there looking after his parents new twins, while mum and dad work and earn money. His mum and dad are now elders, so i assume Rodney will now look after his new sisters. I checked the household to see if Rodneys parents died and Rodney is no longer in the household but he daugther is, i looked on the family tree and his picture isnt black ot white. Still in colour, i dont know what to do about this, so im just going to leave it and see if he is wondering around town.

Andres is a third generation aswell, his mother is the eldest child from Frank and Anne, her name is Marlena. So Marlena and her partner has just became recently old, so i moved her partner and herself into a urban sprawl(i hate it when others in the household get very effected by the dead of a loved one) This meant leaving their eldest son Andres to look after Ellis and Jessie, Ellis was already a young adult and he didnt have a partner, so i adopted him two children and moved him out with them and his younger sister jessie. Leaving Andres with the house, i then adopted andres 3 children, two children and one a toddler and left them to live their lives. I looked on the family tree to see how many fourth generations there were and i clicked on him and saw his toddler in black and white. This freaked me out alot, i mean how is a toddler meant to died honestly, so i went back to my own and read the newspaper and it said she drown. How the heck can a toddler drown? i mean they cant even swim and last time i check she couldnt even walk... This made me very sad, so i adopted him another daugther, just to make us both happy.

After seeing these weird things happen to my sims family. I would just like to say, try to take care of all of your sims especially when you have a big family like mine. Read the newspaper because it is very helpful and tell you who has moved or passed away. Try and not have a very big family like mine, i spend most of my time looking at the family tree and changing households, just to make sure they dont run out of money. Dont leave it to them to get married and have children. When you check on them, if they have a boyfriend or girlfriend, get them married and pregnant, because i waited until most of mine were in their adult lives for them to get married and have children. There is another glitch in the game i would just like everyone to know, this happened to my friend and i was at her place at the time when this happened. Be careful when you have a babysitter, if you are to ever dismiss or fire a babysitter, make sure they dont hold the baby when you are doing such !!! they will leave with the baby/toddler and you wont be able to get the baby/toddler back. The baby/toddler will disappear from your list. BUT!!!!!!!!!!! I do know a way to get back you baby/toddler :) This work for my friend and hopefully for you, move someone in your household, on the list of names you baby/toddler will still be there, so just get that person to move in and your baby/toddler will come back... but as a child. When the baby sitter left with my friend toddler, he stayed a toddler on the family tree, but when he came back he was a child :)

Thank you all for reading

God Bless :)

Hello :D

hello there , it's been so long that i made something but thats because i didint have sims in my computer but now i have it and i'm already started on new outfit :D so i'l hope you will all enjoy them ;)

Happy Easter

First I'd like to say Thank You to all the awesome and wonderful artist on TSR and a Happy Easter to all. Remember you all have fun out there because life is to short not to.

I have something to confess

There's no easy way to say this, but here it goes: I'm afraid I can't update hair fashionista 2 because I can't find its texture and meshes. I looked everywhere but nope, it's not on my machine anymore. I must have deleted them accidentally. I must learn to name my work properly and put them in properly named folders to avoid this stuff. Yeah I know, this isn't cool. It was my favorite hair too.

But can I just say this one thing? I'm very happy that there are still people signing my guestbook to ask if I'll update my meshes especially now that there are lots of better hair to download on TSR:) It really means a lot to me, thanks guys.

Also, if there are any Workshop gurus reading this, I'd be glad to know if there's a way to extract a .sims3pack to get its contents. If there is, I'll make sure to get that hair work and announce it with big bold letters.

Ciao!

A W O K E N.

Hello my stories keep getting regected :P so ive decided to make a new storie called A W O K E N.  I should be out in a week or so. Jess

Mop in bucket - ETC!

Yes, etcetera - for I have not only added the mop-in-bucket (thanks to Mangio, Fredbrenny, PenelopeT and GirlFromVerona who said 'do it') but there is the new 'wet floor' sign (100% recolourable, including the image on the sign). This set  (shown on the left) escapes next Tuesday (7th April)

Oh and here's a better piccie of those puddles!

Easter is coming up

I am looking forward to 5 days of holidays and to be able to spend some time on Scania Build Set Part 2. I have always felt limited by the choice of doors in the game so I started out with a set of 30 different designs which was way over the top, lol. I have spent several days agonizing over which ones to keep and which ones to leave out. I think that I have made my final decision now so I will map and texture those doors and try them out in the game during Easter.

I want to wish you all a Happy Easter!

At the Library

So, I woke up this morning around 10:30 AM, and told my stepmom that I needed to go to another town to fill out an application at a certain department so that I can work at a certain factory in another town, if I get the job. I'm desperately searching for a job, you see, and running out of money while I do so. As it turns out, I have to go in tomorrow by being dropped off in yet another town and taking the bus. I'm not one hundred percent sure if I'll go or not, but I plan on it and I'll try to. First I gotta make sure I'm getting a ride to that certain other town, and also getting a ride back.

Then I sat down to work on my sermon or...whatever one wants to call it, for church this Saturday. It's not quite finished, but I think I made quite a bit of progress. Then my mom called (I don't live with her anymore, but I still love her!) and wanted to go out to lunch today. I okayed that and got myself ready, and then we were off as I was calling my gramma to make sure that the door would be open for me when I go to that other town to take the bus, because I'll have a couple/few hours' wait until the bus comes. We went out to lunch and I bought a sub and some fried broccoli cheese puffs and a cherry coke. When we were done with lunch, we went to a thrift store where I bought myself a very cute, very cheap new used purse. It's a nice brownish color, like I like on my characters, sims, and me too! Then we went to clean out the vehicle and went out for a haircut. I hadn't had my hair trimmed in about a year or so, so it was nice. Unfortunately, I'm running out of money. I need that job soon!

Anyway, after a few more stops, and me grabbing a couple of applications, here we are at a library! I looked for books to buy, but didn't find anything interesting or cheap enough (though sometimes there seems to be interesting enough stuff, I think), that I didn't already read. Well, I looked around then for a book to check out, but I'm already working on two at home, and didn't see anything that I want to read that badly right now, so I got on the computer. I don't have all the information on me that I need to fill out an application and make it more than just halfway decent, so I checked my e-mail. I didn't get any e-mails offering me interviews, which is too bad in a way, I guess, so finally, here I am typing up a hopefully at least semi-interesting blog (though I wouldn't be surprised if that comment right there, or this one, turns the reader (if I have any readers)'s interest away).

We're not through yet today. Maybe we'll go other places. Hopefully I'll be back home in time to continue working on that sermon to get it done enough so that I can do what I need to get done on Thursday. When I brought it up, my stepmom asked me what's more important. In a way, though a job's very important, this 'sermon' or whatever it aught to be called, is a little more important if not just as important as me looking for a job, because it concerns my soul and perhaps that of others (though I don't want to be one of those big headed people that thinks he/she really makes that much of a difference. Still, I never know. I might make that much of a difference.), just like how I don't want to work on the Sabbath, and am getting to the point where I don't want to engage in too worldly activities on the Sabbath either. I just wish that certain people would be more understanding about that. Even if they don't believe this whole matter of eternal life and death, or Heaven and Hell (I don't believe in an eternal hell, actually, but in eternal death and eternal life), the fact that I do should matter enough to them to know that if I go against what I believe, I'll be very stressed out and tormented, and that should matter to them at least, as opposed to saying "It doesn't matter" when no matter how many times they tell me that, I believe that it most certainly does!

Anyway, so here I am at the library, typing away on the blog because I've got little else to do, and today was actually an interesting day for me. I just hope that the next few interesting days are, if not free, mostly free.

Have a nice day <3.

My First Property Uploaded

OMG ! I cannot believe that I have just submitted my First Property to TSR.

I have used Maxis European Townhouse as a Tester Property & then I plan to take it from there.

Steep learning curve for me again but I now know (hopefully) how to submit Lots to TSR to share with everyone.

I don't know when it will be published however, if you do download the property, please can you give me feedback, good or bad as all information is taken on board and helps me learn and understand.

I Thank You

Changed Frame Again...

I'm currently building a new lot for my world, and to maybe upload on here..just a farmhouse type thing again..

but there isn't really any nice paintings to put above the fireplace..I want one in the living room...so I thought I would make some, as the 'Photo Series:Hipster Edition' fits, with that frame...so I started with Eygpt ;-)...but as the new house is turning out to have green hues in all the rooms, I'm going to make a 'green' set next, with trees and green colours so they fit a bit better...but anyway, this is the first set...that is if I can upload my pics today(I'm having a bit of a problem, as it's showing I have NO pics uploaded, and I know thats not entirely true!)...

there we go.....third time lucky ;-)....

so, I hope everyone likes them ;-) ....

The Chocolate Poll is still going strong, Milk is still in the lead with Dark and then White...and Shock! someone has ticked 'I HATE CHOCOLATE'....(I know who you are ;-) )....
