    Hi everyone!

    I've got some bad news. My Greenberg save file got corrupted or appeared to be unsavable.
    Thus, I have restarted with a new set of founders.
    I'll post an update soon!
  • debjameswhitedebjameswhite Posts: 1,612 Member
    @carlimact Oh I really hate when that happens! Can't wait to see your new founders!!
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    Since my last save file got dusted, it's redo time

    My new founders are maxis sims (who I edited a bit)
    Dillin & Zoe Derito

    Their new home is a Lil Simsie house
    09-21-21_7-53-12%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe is a mixologist and enjoys to cook
    09-21-21_8-13-10%25C2%25A0PM.png

    While Dillin is in the athletic career
    09-21-21_8-20-08%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Since Hurricane Mortimer destroyed their last home, Dillin hoped Zoe liked their new government approved one
    "So...how is it? Nice right?"
    "I like it! It's certainly nicer than our one bedroom"
    09-21-21_8-23-34%25C2%25A0PM.png

    "Snow? That won't be good for the game"
    "It's only 20%. I'm sure you'll see the field, Dillin"
    09-21-21_8-36-23%25C2%25A0PM.png

    It was time to christian their new home
    09-21-21_8-40-38%25C2%25A0PM.png
    09-21-21_8-43-51%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe is pretty active and likes to jog every morning before work
    09-21-21_8-54-08%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Dillin had a rough day
    09-21-21_9-08-26%25C2%25A0PM.png

    "Man...I love my wife"
    10-03-21_2-01-55%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Brent came over with a gift for Dillin
    10-03-21_2-03-04%25C2%25A0PM.png

    "Thanks man"
    10-03-21_2-03-20%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Dillin is a bit of a bookworm and likes to unwind with a book
    10-03-21_2-13-42%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe was feeling a bit under the weather and booked an appointment with her doctor
    10-03-21_2-34-28%25C2%25A0PM.png

    UTI and a yeast infection
    FUN
    UTI.png
    yeast%2Binfection.png

    The medication made her a bit loopy
    10-03-21_2-49-10%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Would you trust this bartender?
    10-03-21_2-51-06%25C2%25A0PM.png

    The couple threw a house party and invited Dillin's co-workers
    10-03-21_2-56-03%25C2%25A0PM.png

    "Thanks for coming, Paolo."
    "It's been fun. Invite me over again some time"
    10-03-21_2-56-15%25C2%25A0PM.png

    The present Dillin received was a packet of starter flowers, which he gave to Zoe
    She decided to take up gardening
    10-03-21_3-11-42%25C2%25A0PM.png

    While Zoe was at work, Dillin went to the gym to work out
    10-03-21_3-26-38%25C2%25A0PM.png

    I ask again, would you trust this bartender?
    10-03-21_3-37-32%25C2%25A0PM.png

    In other news, Dillon got a promotion
    10-03-21_3-55-11%25C2%25A0PM.png

    He went out on the town with Paolo to celebrate
    10-03-21_4-00-51%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Since Zoe isn't ready for children just yet, they got a cat
    This is Betty
    10-03-21_4-35-52%25C2%25A0PM.png

    "Hmm...maybe I really can renovate that bathroom..."
    10-03-21_4-44-34%25C2%25A0PM.png

    The family photo

    Dillin took this picture of Betty and is displayed in the entryway
    10-03-21_4-47-45%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe returned from work and Caleb appeared looking like one of the lost boys

  • RawlaRawla Posts: 7,495 Member
    @carlimact I love your founders and that kitty is adorable! No, I wouldn't trust that bar tender. lol Is that a sickness mod you are using?
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @Rawla
    Maxis didn't fail us this time, as i literally just gave them some skin details and a new wardrobe
    I would die for Betty the Cat. I haven't peeked to see what breed she is as of yet.
    Don't go to Zoe's bar. Who knows what happens there
    I use the Woohoo Wellness mod by Lumpinou. It has a lot of cool features like IVF, which I like
  • RawlaRawla Posts: 7,495 Member
    @carlimact That's neat. I just succumbed to the mod rabbit hole a few days ago. The Wellness mod by Lumpinou is already in my folder. With the exception of the WTD module. I just thought that would be a little too weird for me. lol Have fun!
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @Rawla I have most of the modules in my game aside from the teen pregnancy one, since I'm not about that life. lol
    I like the WTD one for UTI\s and other illnesses. I have my sim usually ask about their 'health' before any woohoo happens just in case.
  • debjameswhitedebjameswhite Posts: 1,612 Member
    @carlimact So sorry you had to start over, but I love your new founders. It's so fun to see a reboot of our old challenge. Their new house is adorable. Betty sure is to die for! I love her! It's fun to see all the town people reset and young again!
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @debjameswhite
    I was unhappy that day but I felt like something was about to go wrong. lol
    Best to start from scratch sometimes! I'm happy with Dillin and Zoe!
    My game hadn't loaded when I was picking our cat so she was a surprise to me too. lol Not sure what breed she is yet...persian maybe?
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    Betty was very interested in Dillin's cooking ability
    10-23-21_7-04-02%25C2%25A0PM.png

    How are you feeling, Hon?"
    "Much better. I'm sure I'll be as good as new soon"
    10-23-21_7-07-14%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe learned how to make the 'Dyed Cocktail' and this happened when she drank it
    10-23-21_7-14-39%25C2%25A0PM.png

    She had a shower to see if the colours would come off
    10-23-21_7-18-49%25C2%25A0PM.png

    They didn't
    10-23-21_7-19-01%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Meanwhile, Betty is shedding
    10-23-21_7-20-11%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Dillin played with her while Zoe was at work
    10-23-21_7-22-25%25C2%25A0PM.png
    10-23-21_7-22-51%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Poor Betty is afraid of the TV
    10-23-21_7-36-06%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe, now sans colour, has been a bit irritable thus she listened to her favourite music while doing chores
    10-23-21_7-41-38%25C2%25A0PM.png

    The 'Zoe Special' also helped a little
    10-23-21_7-45-32%25C2%25A0PM.png

    She then punched their punching bag bag until it was time to go to work
    10-23-21_7-47-23%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Dillin headed to the gym while Zoe was at work
    Brant happened to be there as well
    10-23-21_7-53-25%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Zoe came home sad, since her friend died recently, and cuddled Betty to feel better
    10-23-21_8-19-33%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Since it was hot as Hades outside, Dillin did his workout inside
    10-23-21_8-29-24%25C2%25A0PM.png

    So, Zoe is pregnant with a 'oopsie doopsie' pregnancy
    Oops
    10-23-21_8-40-11%25C2%25A0PM.png

    Bob appeared and Zoe quickly befriended him
    10-23-21_9-07-58%25C2%25A0PM.png

    It was time to share the good news
    "Dillin, I'm pregnant"
    10-23-21_9-14-56%25C2%25A0PM.png

    He was super excited
    10-23-21_9-15-09%25C2%25A0PM.png

    They then proceeded to flirt with eachother for the rest of the night

  • OJennOJenn Posts: 8,429 Member
    @carlimact - Zoe and Dillin make such a cute couple, I love Betty too. What sort of cat is she? I can't wait to see the nooboo and love how excited Dillin is about being a dad ♥
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @OJenn
    I'm not sure what Betty is exactly. I haven't been in CAS since she came along. Persian perhaps? I'll let everyone know once I do.
    Dillin and Zoe autonomously flirt with eachother all the time. I suspect this nooboo will have at least one sibling. :D
  • debjameswhitedebjameswhite Posts: 1,612 Member
    @carlimact Dillin and Zoe are so cute together. I can't wait to see Betty when she's a cat :) I love when the dad's are super excited about the nooboos. It's so rare to see!
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @debjameswhite
    I love when the Dad's get excited too! Usually they're like " :( "
    Dillin is actually more excited than Zoe is. He was like "heck yeah a baby: and was more like "meh"
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    Betty turned out to be a Persian, like I thought

    I love her

    Zoe took walks during her pregnancy to try and keep her fitness up
    9e5951c7eb89ae79182919b4a0b7621c18d1cc65.png

    “I missed you too, Betty”
    ce5594f6981c176d3b68adce4b8ab67da3cfbcb5.png

    Zoe made Betty a special drink.
    She seemed to like it

    Zoe got promoted
    dfe2f6c8e8adb72fdcdbf23082be2b207463b2a8.png

    She borrowed the boxing bag to keep fit

    First fire of the generation

    Zoe is struggling

    Zoe’s nightmare had me rolling

    “Betty, you don’t want my cheese ok?”
    1f56481cdcf51449982ec1849c6b3a1b6eb83428.png

    Zoe was having dinner and to witness this
    884bc9d095687f44ef640cabf8fb86aa52140089.png

    Here’s to hoping she doesn’t go into labour at work
    c31945508ec9bde7716b20dfe6f014b37ac3702e.png

    The baby at least had the decency to wait until a reasonable hour
    d2b3776ba3044f6cc3fdf35eb4e18e4d57d70bff.png

    Dillin only freaked out a little
    a43d1d68d2a2201fd9746ead5232db02b0c6f7be.png

    They had a girl!
    Her name is Mandy

    Betty was shedding so Zoe gave her a brushing
    197c63fbed4ae0f70a4645df74923a3e10eb1091.png

    With Mandy sleeping, Zoe took a moment to watch the news

    “Alright Mandy. Let’s clean you up”

    Dillin happily looks after Mandy while Zoe is napping

    With the house relatively quiet, Dillin raked the leaves
    b3c05b9f7766a09661c33d7152ac2c16e4e5d8e1.png

    Betty? Where do you think you’re going?
    171a6a9b60382fbc5031df54d37d128bef8a925e.png

    Dillin placed an ad for their missing cat and hoped Betty would come home soon

    “Yawn. I think it’s time for bed”

    Betty has returned!

    Zoe decided to make Betty the Minty Fresh Pet Confection as a treat

    “Don’t run away again, ok Betty?”

    Dillin ate breakfast with Mandy while she babbled

    omgoodness Mandy is so adorable! I think she definitely takes after her dad ♥
  • carlimactcarlimact Posts: 766 Member
    @OJenn
    I think she's a good mix of both but I see a lot of Zoe in her. :D
    Dillin is the cutest Dad ever and I hope they have another daughter so he can threaten boyfriends later. :D
