Sandy's 'Hood

Thank you, Cher, for sharing the info about the Directory's Cut. It is extremely helpful.   

Sandy, I haven't seen you around or heard from you in awhile.
I just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you and missing you around Sugah's Place of late.
Hope all is well in your world, my dear.

  

Hi Sugah :) I'm still here    I was just thinking today that I haven't been over here lately! Didn't get any update emails and neglected to ck in.. Hope u are doing well   

I'm so glad you stopped by, Sandy.   

I wonder why you are not getting any email notifications of posts here lately?
Have you checked your settings?

I started a neighborhood for Sugah and gang!  Its called Oceanview!  Sugah was the first to move in and now has a job in the Education career.  Then Ari moved in and has a career in Adventure!  Next came Toni!! Toni doesnt have a job yet.  Then Elle moved in (no pics yet of Elle)  Down the lane we have Mac and Maikki!  Mac rolled LTW as Mad Scientist with Science as his Hobby!  Maikki wants to become a World Class Ballet Dancer and has the Hobby of Music and Dance :)  The neighborhood needed a Pub, so Mulligans is now down the road!! I made a CAS Sim to live there, forget his name, haha.  His "greeters" were Maikki, Toni and Mateo!! Enjoy!

Oh, how fun!!!
And "Oceanview" !!! A hood right up my alley!   

I'm so pleased to find you playing and posting your game antics again, Sandy.
And how great to see one of our resident love bird pairs, M & M, smoochin' and snugglin' together.

Now, why doesn't that surprise me?   
Maikki is rockin' that cool ensemble and hairstyle, btw.

It's great seeing some of our Simselves in your game.
And might I add, Toni's Mulligan's Pub looks awesome!!!

Thank you for sharing.
Can't wait to learn what you have in store for Sugah & gang.
Sandy, DO add your OWN Simself.
It wouldn't be a hood for Sugah's forum fam without YOU in it.  

Aha! Thanks Sugah! This hood has been a lot of fun! I was thinking of adding in my self-sim somewhere lol
And, after all of this time playing S2 I finally can have my ceilings show

You truly should, Sandy.
As I said, Sugah's 'hood just wouldn't be complete without your Simself in the mix!   

What lovely fun! Thank you, Sandy. Like Sugah I am looking forward to your SelfSim to get in on the action.

Thanks Nonni, glad you enjoyed the pictures!

In continuing the saga of Sugah and pals, we have the romance and marriage of Ari and Mateo!!  Yes, it was love at first sight for these two!  They do look great together!!  
Mateo is a Knowledge-Family sim.  His LTW is to be a Mad Scientist. Hobby; Cuisine.  He is a Taurus 47365.  One of his co-workers in the neighborhood is Mac!
Ari is Family-Knowledge Aquarius 43666.  LTW is to max all 7 skills. She is in the Adventure career.  BTW they had a roof-raiser wedding party, I was pleasantly shocked!!  Also they are already expecting a bundle of joy from the stork soon.
After a beautiful backyard wedding the happy couple went on a lovely honeymoon to Twikki Island :)  
Hope you enjoy the pictures :)

Ari and Mateo look very happy together, and their honeymoon looks like it was fun.

Don't you love how, when talking together on the couch, sims will often be looking straight ahead, like they're not listening to the other one?   

Cher, that's funny! I never thought about it that way   

Hi Sandy \o checking out your thread. Looks like you had some interesting stuff going on :3 Yeah I've used Toni, Ms S and some of the other simmers self simmies before. In fact, I just added Toni to my Generations hood :p heheh...I think she's supposed to be arranged married or compete for a spouse. (Hafta check my notes)

Thanks for looking! I know my pics are not that great, but I think they are better than they used to be :)

Oh don't worry too much about that :3 everyone does things howevers most comfortable to them. I can see the darling family just fine. Good luck to them making things work financially ^^v

Sandy, so happy to see an update in your 'hood!

Love it when that happens! T'was meant to be!
Ari and Mateo are quite the handsome pair.
I love their matching honeymoon ensembles on Twikki Island.
And Ari is such a Sim beauty, she is even rockin' her work uniform (pointy elfin ears and all)!   
How cool that Mac and Mateo are co-workers!

I enjoyed seeing what's been going on in your game lately.
Thank you for sharing!

  

Thanks Butterfly-yes, most of my families are helped by a underground vein of gold called the motherlode   

Thanks Sugah! And I'm glad you enjoyed the new pictures and story! You were a good guest at the wedding, don't know if you can see yourself in the first row there!   

Oh my gosh! I was so enamored with AriSim dipping her new hubby, that I missed SugahSim in the audience smiling at the newly wed couple!  
BTW, I posted a tiny update the other day in my game antics thread, too, Sandy!   

Sandy, has romanced blossomed between Sugah Sim and Ulli's Benjamin, per chance?   

Oh yes, Sugah! They are married now and "she" is almost at the top of the Education career. She is also prego!! haha!! I'll share some pictures of them next :)   

Love the pics of Mac and Maikki canoodleing. I can't believe, though, that he ended up with a science career and a science ltw and she ended up with a dance career and a dance ltw at random. Didn't you use a hack to make it so?   (I do it all the time!  ) What fun that somebody else is creating stories involving Sugah's people! As you know, in my hood, Sugah already has two grown children (Crystal and Kane). Can grandchildren be that far away??? Whoever ends up with Crystal will have to love that doggie, Honey!

Regarding sims staring straight ahead when "conversing". OTOH, when a sim walks by, other sims often turn their heads to watch. They also react to each other when conversing while eating. You'd think they might have added animations for the conversation on a sofa as well.

Mac-I do have Sim Blender and SW Hobby Adjuster ;) On Maikki's index card I do note that I changed her hobby to Dance from Science but yours I do believe came up Science/Science! I am behind on sharing photo's !! You and Maikki had a son I named Josh! His DNA came up 10 10 9 0 1 :) with a Hobby already Science . He doesnt have a LTW yet as he is just a child...I promise to share pics soon!

I think that SimBlender can change DNA. I use this. Three books that can improve personality traits by studying. A lot of kids are born with Grouchy/Nice at 1.   I will have them, as children, study to get it up to 3 or 4. I've also had a few NPC sims that I've made active who had a sloppy/neat or 0 or 1    and use the books to get it to 1 or 2.

Thanks Mac, I will try those...Is there any limit on how many points you can add with the books?
