    I already bought some basics now, a toilet,a washing table, a shower, a radio and a bed. She is eating vegetables, so ain't spending money on buying food. I changed her aspiration to the one with plants. I'm now saving money to buy a 5*5 walls for a small house.

    Yippee! Jaylene finally made enough money to buy a small house, she now lives indoors a 5 by 5 house with dark green wall painting and even windows! So glad she finally got herself a home without living outdoors.

    So there is no rule stating that you cannot change your aspiration. I assumed it was safe to do so when I was no longer able to do anything for my aspiration. Was that okay?

    I've completed this installment of the challenge and I've uploaded the lot and household to the gallery using the #DrifterChallenge hashtag. The ending depreciated value of the lot was $39,668. My young adult heir did not level her skills as much as I would have liked, but hopefully she'll be up to the challenge of House 002! I gave her the creative trait, but I didn't know how to get her to use any the of creative skill items without actually controlling her. Probably not a good choice in hindsight!

    The family seems to have lost all their acquaintances (only family shows up in the relationship tab) - I don't know if this is a result of the new patch that just came out today or something else. It didn't make for a very good young adult birthday party.

    Really looking forward to the next installment.

    Wonderful!!! Congratulations on completion of The Drifter Challenge House 001 =)=)=)
    Sounds like u did great!!
    I'm thinking that the relationship loss just might have been due 2 the latest patch...I know it did fiddle w/relationships & making friends @ school/work that kind of thing....sry their birthday party was not as awesome as it could have been. Happy birthday heir anyhow!! hee hee
    6 days & counting until the launch of The Drifter Challenge House 002....I hope u enjoy the next installment!

    Since I am finally able to post some pictures, here's my 5000 simoleons house and Jaylene and her boyfriend Travis who was totally sad when he came to us. As you can see I got quite the fancy bathroom now and some fancy wall paper.

    Jaylene sitting on my small chair and table part of the house.

    Jaylene comforts her boyfriend Travis, as you can see I got a radio and some frogs and a bed in the background and something she got as promotion thingy, not fancy at all yet.

    My house is all ready and up to I believe around 35,000 or so, so just waiting on my child to reach young adult and waiting on House 002 :) so can't wait to start the next part, just wish she'd age up by tomorrow when you post the rules. LOL I don't think that's gonna happen though but at least I will know where to go when she finally does age up. Again this is an awesome challenge as I have told you before. :)

    When is house 2 released again? On the 3rd or 4th I think it was you said? Which makes sense since the expansion just got released and people are going crazy over it right now.

    Question. I know I cannot control the spouse that moves in and get them a job. But what if they already have a job when they move in? Do you make them quit? Or just leave it be?

    I made mine quit, and told it in the other topic about the drifter challenge and it was fine, since he isn't allowed to bring in money.
    This is my house now, upstairs has already changed btw, but I am going to show the progress anyway.

    upstairs without baby Jayden and sleeping Travis since Jaylene is on the sleep potion so she can work 24/7 on her painting and gardening

    As I said upstairs is already different now, so, I will be showing that later to you guys. Jaylene also quit her job, since I felt like she would bring in more money staying at home.

    The new Get To Work expansion added the "townies" being able 2 already b employed in jobs (sometimes)
    It's completely your choice in whether u want 2 allow your Moved-In non-playable character(s) 2 keep the job they already have or make them quit...either option is acceptable

    Here's more photos, my kids bedroom is so awkwardly shaped, ugh.
    Jaylene just on her way to age Jayden up.

    Downstairs I added a sofa and a bookshelve, big improvements kk, I also upgraded my dining room slightly.

    This is my current upstairs and it will probably stay this way, but that bedroom is so very awkwardly shaped that I might just try to make the right edge straight from the far end wall.

    I almost forgot, but here's little Jayden now:

    btw the house it's current value is 18.000
