Sugah's Sim Antics

And I am glad to see Crazy Cat lady maddie is still around.

Yes, she's still with us, Sandy.
I rarely let my elder Sims pass on, since I'm especially fond of the seniors in game.
Besides, she just found love with Taavi Mikkola (Suvi's dad).
Taavi (of SimFinland ) is her first and last love.
For all of her days, she's never been interested in extending love to anyone or anything other than her 5 precious furry purries...
Until Taavi came along.

...but I might be brave enough to try changing things within the apartment. Thanks for taking the time to look that up and share it...

Em, you are welcome.
I will be interested to learn if you do try the cheat for moving walls, etc., in apartments.
I hope it doesn't mess up your game, as I said.
I haven't read many positive things about the attempts to redesign occupied apartments thus far.

Sounds like she's a girl after my own simself's heart. (Unlike real life Em, who is definitely NOT a social butterfly, flirt, or assertive in love. At all!)

I knew you'd appreciate that about Callista, Em.  
The fact that the real (Capricorn) Em (shy, rather introverted & not assertive in love) is nothing like (Capricorn) flirty, forward SimEm is such a hoot!
And (Capricorn) Callista seems to be following in your SimEm's footsteps ... Love it!

I've been rather focused on growing up my current Offspring teens (while giving all the families quality lives, of course ) lately.
And like some of you, I am really enjoying this project.  
Also, I've been pondering which new Sims I'll be moving into Tres Lagos to be fruitful and multiply.
The possibilities are endless & it's not easy to choose!  
(Like Cher, I'd prefer to use Sims that haven't been chosen yet, but that's not etched in stone.)

In the meantime...
You may recall my Suvi Mikkola & Jacob Roarke (and his Wonder Dog Rico).
Suvi and Jacob fell in love and were engaged (back in February or March) before the Offspring Project.
And though I am wanting to match up different creators' Sims, these two darlings truly wanted to participate.
They are such sweethearts (married now, ready, willing & able   ). How could I say no?
I haven't taken many pictures for some reason , but there should be more later hopefully.

That's a great picture of Rico riding shotgun. He's so eager to go to work.

I can't wait!

Which is more than I can say for the grouchy-arse human next to him, Cher!

Added on Saturday 5/30 @ 10:45am:

I was able to play for a little while late last night, so here's the latest with the Roarkes: Jacob, Suvi & Rico...


Update on the Roarkes:
Jacob has been promoted to a Draftsman and Suvi has been promoted to Lieutenant.
The happy couple were blessed with a new family member just before midnight last night.  

Do follow me HERE to see a pic of their wee new addition...

Look how happy the pittie is to be going to work

He Does look happy!

I like how he's looks up at Suvi (often) while she's bathing him.

He is so cute! Also, Jacob looks happy on the trampoline! I love that object-the Sims love it too-it's a good thing that they can get fun at the same time as body skill/fitness!

You know, I've not been able to fire up my game in so long, I'm worried I've forgotten most of my Tres Lagos families and their lives.
Good thing I have index cards made up on all the key players.

I'm feeling inspired to play again, upon catching up in Sandy & Cher's threads (though I have so much more catching up to do in both our Game Antics & Experiment in SP Genetics threads ).

I'm hoping things will slow down soon, so I may finally be able to get back to some of my favorite SIMfams.

I have been gone so long, I'd forgotten how darling some of the families I'd been playing are.

But imagine my surprise when I discovered all of my Photobucket images showing up again!
What happened? Was there an outrage against the phenomenal membership fee Photobucket was demanding?
I can't tell you how happy I am to find all our our site images back in place.
When I came on the last time, all of mine were gone and I couldn't bear to re-upload every last one to a new file storage.
The thought of doing so was absolutely overwhelming to me!

Hey Sugah! *hugs* As I understand it, they released some kind of 'fix' and other servers just had to deploy it and it would restore the ability to share photos from there...not sure what prompted them to change it, but once the server here had deployed the fix people who hadn't already moved to other services, their images came back.

Welcome back Sugah!! You have been sorely missed! Hope you are well

Tim, I can not tell you how GREAT that is to hear!
The idea of replacing all of my/our images for every single download, etc., etc., was just too exhausting to think about.
I do NOT think I could have dealt with such an endeavor...AT ALL!
What a relief it all worked out.

Is that you dear Sugah?

SANDY!!!

Hmm.  I wish I had known that before I left Photobucket.  I tried to get all my photos from them, but they never sent them, so many of them got lost.

Exactly.  Especially with a chaotic home life.  There's just not enough energy for a lengthy project.

Edit: Mine are all still there! I'm so surprised because I told them to close my account. I'm happy they didn't listen!
