    Page 3863, continued.

    @MoonandStars83 Yep, it's a time sensitive thing from what I've heard.

    @Karritz Donna's got quite a household!
    Maybe I can watch some videos over the weekend.

    @Silverofdreams30 Sorry to hear your save isn't working.

    @PHOEBESMOM601 Well, this won't end well for him then.
    I just hope she doesn't teach Claudia to be the same way.
    I guess not, if she can tell her mothers lies
    Great update!

    @DeafSimmer Getting close to swimming weather, a bet his wife likes it when he wears his swim shorts only.
    Nova looks like she had fun with the dolls.
    I can't wait to see what pranks they pull.
    Great update!
    That was a bit creepy of him.
    Zelda sure wasn't taking any from him, lol
    Serves him right.
    Great update!

    @meerkattime Yeah, it seems she likes to think of him a lot.
    Lol, they really aren't too bad unless they shock you or something.
    Thanks, I thought it was funny that that happened.

    Screenshot-49.jpg
    Daniel: Avast! What's the emergency/
    Carolyn: Our running water has slowed to a walk.
    Daniel: In my day, we didn't have running water.
    Carolyn: Not so sure we have it in my day either.
    Daniel: We didn't need telephones or electric toothbrushes, no.
    I had to fight off the scurvy, and fight the world for you.Why I recall..

    Screenshot-50.jpg
    Carolyn: Captain, I don't have time to listen to one of your stories
    right now.I got to get back to work.
    Daniel: What about the blasted pipes?
    Carolyn: They need to be replaced and I can't afford to do that
    until I finish the story I'm working on.Which may be never.
    Daniel: Why is that?
    Carolyn: Like the plumbing, I ran dry.I don't have an idea in my head.
    Excuse me captain.

    Screenshot-52.jpg
    Daniel: Sit, we're going to write a story together.
    Carolyn: "We?" What's this "We".
    Daniel: With my adventures, and your writing talent, we'll be the greatest
    team since shakespere.
    Carolyn: I thought shakespere was one person?
    Daniel: Don't argue madam.Just take advantage of a genuine ghost
    writer.

    Screenshot-53.jpg
    Daniel: It was back in 56, I was bound for Bristol, aboard a scooter
    out of Boston Harbor.
    Daniel leans over and reads Carolyn's writing.
    Daniel: "It was the year 1956? You mean 1856."
    Carolyn: I think it would be more interesting to the reader, if we update it.
    Daniel: The ferry Mary Anne steamed out of Boston Harbor, Captain Joshua
    webster was in the pilot house...Who is Joshua Webster?
    Carolyn: Its you.
    Daniel: I'm Daniel Gregg, and I have a death certificate to prove it.
    Carolyn: Don't worry about the names.

    Screenshot-55.jpg
    Daniel: Well, I suppose since you're the professional writer..
    Anyways, My crew had been straight from the water rats.All sorts
    of cutthroats and briggens, who preferred to sign on for the voyage,
    instead of the Gallows.I came down from the bridge, to find the men
    had discovered a female stoway. A lovely lass she was, on her way
    to meet her betrothed.
    Carolyn: Its a romance?!
    Daniel: Well, sort of.
    Carolyn: That's perfect! Now I know how we can sell the story.Lets see,
    how does this sound "I hidden in the life boat, hoping to steal passage to
    Dover, to meet my fiance."
    Daniel: I? How did you get into my story?
    Carolyn: Its a famine view magazine, we have to have clarification.It
    will be seen through the eyes of a stoaway.
    Daniel: Alright, anyway.By the way the men were behaving,I knew if
    I didn't act quick, they might try to ravish her.

    Screenshot-54.jpg
    Daniel leans over once more to read Carolyn's work.
    Daniel "It was bad luck for a woman to be on board, the captain
    was afraid the men might try to harm her?!" They weren't going
    to harm her..they were going to ravish her.
    Carolyn: I'm sorry but there's no ravishing in this story.
    Daniel: "The men invited me to dinner?"...
    Carolyn: Well, if you don't want my professional judgment
    as a writer...we can call the deal off.
    Daniel: BLASTED WOMEN! I was there...
    Carolyn looked hurt and down.Daniel felt a small twinge of
    remorse.
    Daniel: Well, you do need a story.And the best is yet to come.
    I leaped down wielding a sword in one hand.I forced the lot
    of them below deck and locked them in the brig.Finally the sea
    to glass, and I fell exhausted...

    to be continued...

    @Karritz Hi! Great looking family!

    @Silverofdreams30 Sorry about your save.

    @PHOEBESMOM601 Great update!

    @DeafSimmer Great updates! I love playing witches and fairies.

    @meerkattime I am enjoying it very much! So much faster.

    @AbellaKellaher Welcome back! Your build looks amazing.

    @Brandontaylor It is very much so. I wish I hadn't talked myself out of going to the hospital sooner.

    @GraceyManor Looks like you're making the most of your lack of CC. Your Sims looks great.

    ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

    I wish I could remember my Sim's name. Her last name is Hobson, and I'm fairly certain @CravenLestat created her. She went to work. I need to send her to China for an opportunity at her job.

    Opened up my game to play for the first time, in like forever. Started a new save in Sunset Valley and moved into the trailer starter home that's between Erin Kennedy and the Alvis (I can't remember the name of the lot)... Let's just say that while my sim is at work or sleeping, I get very distracted by what is happening over at the Alvi house.

    First I heard voices coming from that house at 4:32am. I panned over and what do I see?
    pZF0vsr.jpg

    Mr. Iqbal Alvi outside having a discussion with Lisa Bunch! :flushed:
    What was Lisa doing over there so early in the morning? On a school day, none the less! They were having a bit of an argument until Iqbal headed inside. The whole situation seems wrong on so many levels!

    Well, the drama doesn't stop there. A few days later, I panned over to the Alvi house because I heard sims over there (again). What did I see? Mr. Alvi was getting a vist... I'll just leave the picture here and you can decide what the visit was about! :lol:

    This was a crazy busy week at work. Sorry, I did not make comments as usual. I did give awesomes out as I read your updates with my morning coffee. I hope I will have time this weekend to catch up on comments and finish the ball!

    page 3859

    @king_of_simcity7 Looks like Lola had a good crowd for her party.

    @lisasc360 It's nice to see you playing your Sims 3 story again. Margo looks lovely as usual. I think I need Adam to convert a female sim to a wolf! He still has to convert 4 to complete his lifetime wish. That was very nice of her to buy a cake from Peanut.

    page 3860

    @king_of_simcity7 lol at the open bathroom door!
    Some of your sims are not very responsible! :lol: and no work ethic either! back in my day.....old lady grumbles. B)

    @GraceyManor I remember the Haunted Mansion story.

    @MoonandStars83 Welcome back. Sorry I couldn't help. I didn't even load my game this week. :cry:

    @Evalen adorable pictures of Asha and Barry as he is learning to talk.
    That is a surprise that the game didn't leave him bald. Most of my aliens are bald and I always add hair them as I consider them part human even if the game does not.
    oh, the poor child. Losing her parents and soon her grandfather. Big decision though.

    @carlystur03 Well bummer about Daniel but that was lucky that he was unlucky! :grin:
    Wow, if I knew he would clean house I would have him come over every once in a while.

    reminder to self, start at 3861

    I took this picture last week when I popped in my Sanctuary save. Jorge and Judy went to the dive bar, played some pool, and drank some drinks. Ty Conley and his wife were there as well. I checked on their baby, was home with a sitter, but I forgot to take a picture.

    Played on my Moonlight Falls save

    Tuesday morning dawned with Janus and Alan having some breakfast, while Ebony read a book. Florence watered the indoor plants while Keanu cleaned the house. Alan left for work, with Janus leaving for school soon after. Ebony went into town after finishing her book, visiting the Consignment Store and the Elixir Store. Florence went to harvest the plants while Keanu continued to clean the house. Alan returned home from work hungry and stressed, so he went to have some leftover cheese plate before going into the hot tub. Janus returned home from the Field Trip to the Science Lab tired out, and Keanu prepared some Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches (As he had a Wish to make some Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches locked in). Florence rolled a Wish to Master the Gardening Skill before I sent her to text Cato. Ebony arrived home tired and hungry, so she had some Plasma Juice before she went for a shower and bed.
    Currently aiming to get all harvestable produce in The Sims 3 (One EP left)Will complete a Legacy one dayhttps://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=katcalls2k907 (My Wishlist)

    I have been taking a break the past few days making music but have decided to look for some TS3 hair for a potential new Sim and was excited to see this from Cazy last month: :smile:

    @Phoebesmom601 Poor Captain - sounds like he's found a wrong lady. The young lady will give her mother a headache :smirk: .

    I'm not sure if she'll turn out like her mother or if she'll be a thorn in her side. Have to wait and see.
    @PHOEBESMOM601 Well, this won't end well for him then.
    I just hope she doesn't teach Claudia to be the same way.
    I guess not, if she can tell her mothers lies
    Great update!

    I just don't know what will happen to Captain. Could a fall into the ocean from a high cliff be in his future?

    @king_of_simcity7 That hair is beautiful. Is it at TSR?


    There are so many great stories here. I have to get caught up on them.

    Tuesday was cooler and rainy but Eric still got up to make breakfast for the family at 2:00 A.M. He always wants to make sure his three grandchildren are fed a good breakfast before school.

    ft4lhk0.jpg
    Fawn and Melanie were the next ones up so they joined Eric for breakfast. Unfortunately, Melanie had a few hours before the sun rose so was still in her wolf form. Eric couldn't help but crack a smile at Melanie's lack of table manners.

    fPCPKYu.jpg
    One of the money trees dropped a seed so L4u Rn ran outside to plant it. There are now 3 of them, and two life fruit plants inside.

    hx1ateR.jpg
    Melanie decided to work more on Mr. Goth Goes To Town while Dwight went back to bed. He had to work in the afternoon and evening and since he didn't sleep well last night, he wanted to be prepared.

    sRn4b7F.jpg
    L4u Rn and Eric had a nice little chat about upgrades up until he tried to implement them. Once again, he was on the receiving end of a nasty shock.

    QnyKW0u.jpg
    Once Dwight got up, he went to the TV to do a workout. His boss wants him to gain some athletic skill but he was putting it off.

    AVdFPQi.jpg
    Early that afternoon, the rain had stopped so Eric, Fawn, and Melanie decided to go to the festival. First thing was the eating contest, which Fawn ended up winning.

    HMEqpuQ.jpg
    The hotdogs didn't agree with Sam Sekemoto and he ran off to vomit. Fun fact, he was Fawn's former boyfriend way back in high school.

    rNuhkvl.jpg
    Melanie decided to learn to skate. No one else was on the rink so she figured if she fell, no one would see.

    4kMrHD9.jpg
    While she skated, Eric and Fawn played chess together. Fawn was hoping to gain a skill point but that didn't happen. She is now 89 so she could go as early as tomorrow.

    OiX9s2A.jpg
    The triplets did their homework together again. They were to name several of the constellations, a subject on Ariana seemed to like.

    jj2Huae.jpg
    A cop named Santos decided to skate a bit later that night. Melanie decided to skate with him as she felt a bit of attraction. She won't cheat on Dwight though, she loves him too much for that.

    fbD26ce.jpg
    Fawn got tired of chess so she decided to practice her soccer skills. Then everyone went home and I sent them off to bed.

    Daniel sat down at the computer and began to read Carolyn's story.
    Daniel: She's butchered it.Knocked the wind right out of the sails.Lets
    see if I couldn't fix this.
    He typed away trying to to finish before Carolyn caught him.

    Screenshot-3.jpg
    Carolyn: Captain Gregg? Are you there?
    Daniel materilized behind Carolyn.

    Screenshot-4.jpg
    Daniel: No, but I've been told I have a strange resemblence.
    What can I do for you Madame?

    Screenshot-5.jpg
    Daniel: Oh? What's this.
    Carolyn handed Daniel a bottle of wine aged 120 years.
    Carolyn: Can you still enjoy it?
    Daniel: Of course, Madame.Let's share it.

    Screenshot-7.jpg
    Daniel: What's the special occassion?
    Carolyn: Our Story sold, here's our first check.
    Daniel: Marvelous! Congratulations.
    Carolyn: Congratulations to you, we should split it.
    Daniel: That's not necessary, besides how would I catch it?
    My ID's been expired for a 100 years.

    Screenshot-8.jpg
    Daniel thought about telling her how he changed the story around
    and made it a little more...adventerous.But he decided it best not to.

    @AbellaKellaher I remember who you are, lol. Wondering where you've been but sorry to hear it was due to health. It's good to hear you are heading in the right direction though.
    Looking forward to seeing the lot.
    Wow, that's cool your husband got to go on a real pirate ship.
    The lot looks really cool, great job on it!

    @GraceyManor Things are much easier now, but I love how he complained about "new technologies"
    The captain had a good idea there.
    I don't think he likes her changes though.
    Good story about his life.
    Great update!
    I have a feeling the captains real story is much more interesting than Carolyn believes.
    Glad to hear he can still drink wine.
    I guess she'll find out soon enough. :lol:

    @MoonandStars83 I guess the important thing is you got it taken care of. Some people wait way too late and it causes really serious damage.
    I wish Craven was still around, I had some Sims he made me that I lost when my old computer acted up. Not sure if he still has them all or not but it'd be nice.

    @Kesminlix Yikes, that seems a bit like a forbidden relationship or something. Chances are, Lisa was visiting with VJ. They sometimes end up together with story progression.
    Okay, with the cop, I'd say some underage relationship between Lisa and Iqbal was going on.
    Great update!

    @Silverofdreams30 You're welcome.

    @DeafSimmer Glad Zelda isn't putting up with him.
    She did great against him!
    Great update!
    Geez, he must really like her to keep bugging Zelda.
    Sorry to hear about the MLP save, it would have been cool to see the crossover.

    @bekkasan Nice picture from your Sanctuary save!

    @king_of_simcity7 Nice find! That hair looks really great, I need to do some CC shopping myself, seems I never get anything though.

    @PHOEBESMOM601 Can't wait to find out!

    ***All caught up, now heading into the game. I will play tonight but then will take a break tomorrow to catch up on a few stories and videos from some of you. Still got 3 pages left of Bekkasan's story and also want to watch some of Karritz videos when I get time.

    @Kesminlix Maybe they wanna know why he was harassing a teenager?

    @DeafSimmer Those pesky curses.
    ****She's just cursing everyone.

    @bekkasan No worries! It was a relatively easy fix. Just time-consuming.
    ****The bar looks cool.

    @Sleepstar Mmm... PB&J...

    @king_of_simcity7 Cazy makes good hairs.

    @Brandontaylor I must not play with Werewolves enough to be used to their mannerisms.

    @GraceyManor Something tells me Caroline's gonna be plummed to find out her story's been messed with.

    ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

    Pulled an old save out and brushed the dust off. It seemed to work okay. Though there's a bit too much clutter.

    Heard back from MTS. I need to take better screenshots (apparently), and I guess I missed a few Store items when placing them. Maybe I'll put up a few of those invisible light sources for the pictures.

    The free Barnacle Bay bug happened to me today. I was trying to gift something that cost points (it wasn't Barnacle Bay) to a friend and an error ocurred. Then Barnacle Bay appeared "owned" and free to download. :o

    Oh my Plumbob it has been TOO LONG since I last played... I am never gonna be able to catch up! I've been playing Sims 4 instead. My game was just being rather slow and laggy. I googled the problem, basically the FPS was way too high! It was running at something like 90, when my computer's refresh rate was 60 Hz. I never thought about FPS being an issue. Anyway, I installed something to limit the FPS to 60, briefly went into the Mancini Family to test, and it seems to be running great! I'll be back to playing Sims 3 soon... but Sims 4 is tempting too. I think I'm going to have to implement some kind of schedule, like only playing Sims 3 one week, Sims 4 the next, etc.

    @bekkasan thanks for the input, yes it surprised me too. I never dreamed, because I have never played alien that had hair. Maybe it is genetics as his father is a IF turned human. He has dark red hair, I don't know. I was going to change him but decided to leave it. I hope his children do not have hair.
