I have been always supported by generous & kind simmers at this community. I really enjoyy creating things & sharing with my friends but upto this point i was unable to hold a lottery with simpoints...

unfo due to where i reside in,m i am unale to buy simpoints through site & also simpointcards are not avaliable at my country either..
yep i know there are commercial videos provide simpoints but those are extremely rare for me too ^.^"

what changed is EA glitch due to update of site... somehow i re-registered my sims 3 and World Adventures ep so i can redeem free simpoints!! O.o"

EDIT: I noticed some simmers mightnot aware what is "clean" wl..
Hence i had take some info from @anettesb 's thead here..
She is awesome & i hope she won't mind i used the explantion;

So what is a Squeaky clean wish list?
A clean wish list have no doubles on it, that means you don’t have both the set, the sub-set the compilation set and the single item on your list! It means any item will only be on your list 1 time, in any form.
It also means that you, to be fair, don’t have a set on your list, if you own a single item already, just put all the single items on the list, and before you know it theres a chance you can get the set for free with complete a set
A wish list that isn’t clean is what @anettesb calls messy, so do i

Why is it so important to keep it clean?
Put simply to avoid double purchase, and the hazel with customer support to, maybe get the points back (that is hardly ever possible)
“many people think they are helping gifters by having the choice of single item, subset, comp set all on their wl's, so that if someone can't afford the big set, it gives them the option to buy a smaller one or parts of. But they all need to know that this only confuses gifters due to EA not setting things up right. I mean it should be set up so that if you choose 1 thing the other can't be added, or if one is gifted they other can't be, but EA is greedy and doesn't care, therefore gifters shy away from these double wl's. I mean I have seen dozens with both versions of sunlit tides on their wl's, and this is simply unexceptable ”

share your memory please: I will get back to this.
pic/s : Here is the story as well.
Miss Rein runs an orphanage in Bridge port in a small home. She has her hands full with five toddles and two kids. She loves the outdoors and so do the kids but it has become really unsafe for them to even leave the house because of all the drunk people, thieves, and there are no more nice parks for the kids to play in. Miss Rein has had the last straw of this town but she does not know where to move. A friend told her about Hidden Springs. It has big open fields, a big house for the kids and no drunk people. So Miss Rein plans on moving to Hidden Springs when she gets enough money, whitch she hope is really soon.












(sorry if I misspelled any words)
When Miss Rein found out she did not have enough money to move to Hidden Springs,she started looking online for a better place to live in.

She knew it had to be big enough for two kids and five toddles.
(about Miss Rein)
When Miss Rein was a little younger she had a pet cat,Missy.Sadly Missy ran away and Miss Rein was heartbroken.But when Miss Rein went outside to lock the gate,guess who was standing at the gate??Missy!!!!

Miss Rein was so happy to have Missy back.Then an idea hit her...she went back online and did some searching..

BINGO!!!! Miss Rein found the house she grow up in!! It was in bad shape but with the money she saved she could buy it and fix it up.She quickly e-mail the real-astate saying she would like to buy it.

Miss Rein know it would be a perfect place for the sisters to grow up in since they lost their parents in a car crash.

And a perfect place for the twins since they were dropped at her front door when they were only a for hours old.The black toddler in the background was found in a dumpster.Miss Rein brought him to her home and cared for him.

Miss Rein also knew it would be a very special place for the little cowboy and his mare,Kind Soul, he lost when his home burned down.Kind Soul was able to run away before she was trapped in the burning barn.She found her way to her little cowboy master some how.

With happy thoughts in every ones heads,they all slept very peace fully.The boy toddler wearing red pj's lost his parents at sea.Miss Rein gladly took him under her roof.



They are all hoping and dreaming that the real-astate will say yes and let Miss Rein buy her old home.

Hope you like the story.
I was able to get the little cowboy's,Nick,story.

The Davis's were a very happy family.Their was Max Davis,Mary Davis,Nick Davis and Kind Soul.

Max and Mary were very happy the way things were.Enought money to buy what every one needed and a few things every one wanted.

Nick loved his mare,Kind Soul,very much.If any one tried to harm her,he would protect her.Kind Soul loved her little master every since she first saw him as a tiny baby.Kind Soul was Max's faithful mare but Max knew his son,Nick,would need a faithful friend so Max gave Kind Soul to Nick on his fourth birthday.They do every thing together now.
But one night while Nick was at a friends house for a sleepover,a fire started in the house.Mary and Max tried putting it out but it spreaded to fast.Mary was trying to save her favorite photos but the flames found her and took her in a few seconds.

Max was out in the barn trying to get Kind Soul out because the wind took the fire to the barn.Kind Soul was able to get out but Max was trapped and died in a few seconds.

(they had a fire place in the barn for the very cold winters)
When the firefighters got to the house,there was nothing left but two big ash piles.(one for the house and one for the barn)
They could not find Kind Soul because she ran away to find her little master.Nick ran away to another town hoping to find a new home.Miss Rein found him in an alley and took him home.Nick told her what happened and Miss Rein put an ad in the newspaper and online to help find Kind Soul.A few weeks later Nick saw Kind Soul at the gate of Miss Rein's home.Nick was so happy to see his mare again and Kind Soul was glad to have found her little master.Miss Rein said Kind Soul could stay.The other children would love having Kind Soul around to play with.

Ok, here is my official entry. Thanks again, @Franny for the nomination

Share your memory please: When my husband first joined the Navy, we were very poor. We were just starting out in life and had a toddler son. When I say Ramen noodles and Koolaid were our diet for the first couple years of our life together, I am not kidding. That's what we lived on. It just so happened that he comes from a HUGE family and his grandmother was the matriarch. The first time I met her, and she was very important to my husband, I knew INSTANTLY that we would get along. She was hilarious and totally "got" me. We would talk for hours when we would go visit and called each other on the phone all of the time. When my husband would go out to sea, I would pack up the baby and our things and go and stay with his grandmother while he was gone. That woman taught me EVERYTHING! She taught me how to cook, she gave me priceless and excellent advice on raising children (she should know, she had 6 of her own!), and any time I needed a hug, she was right there. I loved all of the time I was able to spend with her. Unfortunately, she passed away a few years ago, and it hit me hard. However, she left me a letter that was the most beautiful thing anyone has ever written to me...thanking ME for being there for HER, when I knew it was the other way around. I am forever indebted and filled with gratitude for the relationship I had with my husband's grandmother. I miss her terribly some days, but I just pull out that letter and read it, have a good cry, and remind myself that I was very fortunate to have known her and had her in my life. While in those early years I may not have been rich in money, I was certainly rich in love and I will be forever grateful to her for that.

Here is my witch, Adria Bowie, using her powers for good by magically upgrading the bathtub to self-cleaning. If only I could do that in real life, LOL!
