    Hi there buddy :smile: I spent the whole evening in game working on your gifts. Ideas are flowing and my muse is very cooperative. I'm having a lot of fun!

    Unfortunately it's time for bed now (at least for me ;)). Good night everyone!

    P.S. I realized I misinterpreted one of the questions in my buddy letter regarding the skills, so I changed it a little bit.

    Dear Buddy,

    I don't have a single thing done yet :o

    Well, I must admit that I have been in a slacker mood and haven't really gotten started yet, but... I do have a few things in my bag of tricks and everything will work out just fine :sunglasses:

    Your buddy,
    Me >:)

    Hey buddy!

    I got a house about 75% built last night. had to install some store stuff to complete it.
    didn't feel like building tonight so I spent time in CAS, made a special sim. Currently trying to figure out the easiest way to get their partner. I have something special in mind.
    I still have another household I want to work on. maybe two.
    having a good time. hope you are too!

    Take Care,
    Jenni

    Dear Buddy: If you knew who I was you might be worried from my lack of post .... BUT fear not your buddy in disguise has been cooking up some stuff all night!

    Insomnia's a ----. I have suffered from Insomnia for ages but to make matters worse ..... I can't sleep because my mother called and told me my step-father (was has been like a father to me most of my life) is being rushed to from our local hospital to the bigger one because of their trauma center. You see he is one of those tough guys who NEVER goes to the doctor unless to ill to fight. He has a raging fever over 104; swollen knees, tremors - they think it might be lyme disease that has been left untreated for god knows how long. They are going to draw fluid off his knee to test and start him on massive antibiotics. There is nothing I can do but wait ..... I know Lyme is very treatable and they did get him stable so I am here just waiting .... So sleep what is that!?!

    So my Muse said to me "Honey, you got to take your mind off of this there is nothing you can do right now!"

    To which I replied ..... "Easy for you to say ... You all just in my head!

    She rebutted back with sass, "That's right I am and I am telling you what you need to do is sit down on focus on something you CAN work on because honey all this stress isn't good for you. When in doubt GAME HARDER! ;)

    With that I gave in and she has been firing up a storm all night .... Just story/background stuff mostly right now but I will take it! Let the ideas flow while my Muse wants to go!

    @Skymyst - sorry to hear that your insomnia is being a pain and that your step-father isn't very well.
    Happy to hear that your muse is taking over though!
    I was thinking about you the other day; your contest was the first ever contest that ever got me into building (that atrocious build still sits in my studio) and I miss them dearly!

    Good Morning! I see lots of excited chatter going on... niiice... muses are certainly on their toes, buzzing here and flitting about there... please remember to not give away too many details regarding what you're making so buddies don't get an inkling of who has whom. No, no secrets have been spilled. This is merely a gentle nudge in advance so no "oops" moment happens. I can't tell y'all how challenging it was last time to not tell Tanu about something I was making for her, especially when I was in game working on it while we chatted a time or two lol

    @Skymyst ~ Sorry to hear that your insomnia is being kicked into hyperdrive because of the news about your step-father. Sending positive vibes your way... to you so that you find peace of mind while you wait for further updates... to him so that he'll relax and focus on recovering/getting back to doing what he enjoys :)

    **stops by with checklist in hand**

    Drafting Station
    Plenty of graph paper, pencils and erasers? Check.

    Fun Zone
    Gate unlocked? Check.
    Enough books, bouncy things and coloring pages? Check.

    Construction Shed
    Surplus of materials on hand? Check.
    Hard hats, safety glasses and gloves? Check.

    Everything looks good!

    Speaking of looking good...
    the few sneak peek pictures and gifts I've seen look pretty awe-sim, buddies are going to be super happy!!!
    Just sayin'

    It's 83F here so it's difficult to think of this as being fall so the refreshment table contains lighter nibbles at the moment...

    Well. Buddy. The 3rd gift is more or less built. Still some tweaks to do. It will be your major gift. I have one more in mind. So I will see how that goes.
