Not so much a hoarder as lacking motivation and energy. I have Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, so my energy supplies are limited. Cleaning out stuff doesn’t usually wind up at the top of the to-do list.
Yard sale? Donate? I probably should take my own advice, I still have clothes from high school. I've been out for 20 years.
Are you a pack rat/borderline hoarder like me?
Save them a few more years, then make a killing selling them as vintage, online? XD
Or if any still fit, wait til they come back in style. Everything does sooner or later because there are only so many ways to drape cloth over a human form and we endlessly repeat things.

What was your most embarrassing fashion faux pas?
I think it was in junior high, I was still a halloween nut (and am to this day, even more so in fact) but other kids were too sophisticated for that by the age of 12, so I wore something that I got teased for. They called me the Jolly Green Giant. I just went along with it, going 'Ho ho ho."
I didn't get teased often because first of all I was bigger than most anyone else, then, and secondly, I knew how to weather a storm with outward calm, so after a few tries, if you laugh along, they lose interest.
Oh, so many things but nothing at the same time. One the one hand, there are tons of things that I should have done differently. On the other hand, making mistakes and learning from those mistakes is how we grow and gain wisdom.
If I had to choose, probably speaking up more when I was younger. I tried to avoid conflict as much as possible, I still do to an extent, and wouldn't call someone out for being rude or mean. I didn't want to rock the boat. Now I'll sink it if I think someone is being rude, mean, or a bully.
I like that question, it makes you think. Same question
Seeing other people do better than me and me wanting to be on the same level or better than them. 🤣🤣🤣 Sorry, but it's my blood. LOL. I guess it's cuz when I was in school, my mom would always push me to be top in class every semester. So I just got used to being competitive like that. 🙈 It sounds like it is a bad thing but I don't think I would be where I am today if it weren't for that.

I get what you're saying, and I do have a little bit of that in me, that competitiveness. I'm realistic about my skills and limitations though. There are some things where I'm close enough to the people who are the best that I strive to get that little extra to be up there with them. I don't feel like I've found that one thing that I'm really gifted at, yet. It's part of that process of learning about the real me as I come out of the shell my choices and circumstances put me in.
I'm a bit of both. When I'm around people I'm not familiar with or not comfortable with I'm closed. When I get to know someone and feel a connection with them then I start to become an open book. The deeper and stronger the connection the more open the book becomes. I have two or three people in my life that get to see the fully open book. I feel so close with them that I can tell them pretty much anything.
I really like this question, so let's hear from at least one more member of our quirky little family,
For a long time I was a closed book with several locks, some of which I temporarily lost the keys to. In more recent times I've got better at opening up about my interests and feelings but there are sections of my book that still need a bit of time to get to know and trust someone before they become fully unlockable. If I feel that I can't trust someone to treat my interests, feelings and opinions with respect then I will stay closed, but if it's someone I know will not judge me then I will open.
You're given some paint and a canvas. What do you paint a picture of?
Can anyone tell me why I can't place fences Inside of others? My lot has an enclosed fence. Trying to put a fenced garden in a section on same lot and it's not allowing me? Help 😩

Hi! Welcome to the forums!
If you draw the fence from the house, it will make a foundation/room. Try redrawing the fence but start from somewhere other than the house. Without screenshots of what's happening, I can't really tell you exactly what to try. You're a new member so you can't post pics or start your own thread until you reach member status.
This thread isn't for the actual game. It's a little off topic game where we ask completely random questions not pertaining to anything Sims related..most of the time.
A landscape, no doubt about it. Not that it would be the one I see out of my window. All I see is the trailer park across the creek from me. But I can project my mind into a mountain meadow full of flowers and wildlife. Snow covered peaks in the background. Better yet, project my mind to Fjords in Norway. I am so there....
A good nap. If there is some sort of significance to my dreams, I remember them--good and bad. Plus, a dream is just a dream, and doesn't do anything for me. A nap, on the other hand, does.
An envelope was dropped on your door step, would you open it?
Meh. That happens all the time. It’s usually just religious tracts from the church up the hill or someone wanting to clean my gutters. I don’t have gutters.

Forgot to ask one.
What did you ever get teased about?

Are you an open or closed book? Feel free to detail.

Probably a stick figure because I'm not artistic at all.

If you could have a superpower what would it be?
Would you rather have a good dream that you could remember or have a good nap in the afternoon?
Do you have any reoccurring dreams?
What is your hair color?
Do you dye your hair?
Do you have a lit up keyboard for your computer/laptop?
Do you use the voice recognition feature on your TV remote?

Bath wash or bar soap?
